Famous face – and voice – at the Parrot Cage!

What a great surprise on a cold January day to get a surprise visit from my chum gardening guru Matt Biggs from Gardener’s Question Time. He had been filming and recording in the area and as Covid has made catching up in person tricky for a while he popped in to say hi – and needless to say coffee and cake made an appearance and a good time was had by both- he rather appreciated my botanical scarves and we had fun identifying the Latin names! Matt is, as ever, busy writing and recording and his Christmas present Parrots & Peonies scarf was greatly appreciated, jolly chilly gardening in January! www.matthewbiggs.com has more and he writes some great books which are on my bookshelves and are a great inspiration when I have time to get into my own garden!

Just a little touch of Spring to ward off the cold!

Totanicals are not only for gin!
Pretty in pink
Roses grow on you

A touch of the blues

 

Well January is about to wave goodbye and in my garden there are little green shoots shivering their way up.  That means that I am busy planning some cheering and beautiful treats for Valentines, Mothering Sunday and Spring in general.

I still have some wonderful warm winter wools and cashmeres as the cold is still very much with us, and have just had a consignment of truly beautiful scarves and shawls but here is a little taste of spring for you……

Happy New Year!

I am now back from the frozen North, such a beautiful way to spend Christmas and I hope that you had a special Christmas too.  I have to say I was very, very glad of the warm soft scarves that I packed – when you are sipping crowberry juice whilst sitting on an ice seat in a snow hotel with the huskies baying in the snow outside, a nice bit of cashmere is very welcome!

I will be in the Shambles in the shop tomorrow, Monday 3rd January and then Wed. 5th Thursday 6th Friday 7th Saturday 8th and then each week except on Sunday and Monday when I am closed.  As usual I will pop any changes on the slate outside the shop and do call or email me if you need something urgently, happy to chat!

Father Christmas gave me some wonderful books on the history of the Kashmir shawl which I have been diving into with great interest.  I can see that some of my traditional designs follow exactly patterns that have been used for hundreds of years and I am learning lots of fascinating things – I will have the books in the shop for anyone who is interested in taking a look, along with lots of photos of India.  Sadly my February trip is on hold due to Covid (again, sigh) but at least parcels are arriving and there are lots of new and gorgeous items on their way!
