Yesterday I was at the Kioskiosk selling my wares and teaching a load of unsuspecting tourists and daytripping families how to knit and crochet with my trusty sidekick Bee from Chain Creative. Here are a few shots of us in action:
Setting up
The fantastic view of Tower bridge from inside the kiosk
Workshops in full swing...
...and moving inside to shelter from the elements...British summertime, eh?!
A natural knitter and just eight years old, Olivia had never picked up the pins before but was a whizz!
More young knitters and crocheters with Bee; afterwards they treated themselves to a yummy Sugar Rose cupcake as a reward for their hard work...
...my little knitted birdies couldn't resist the cakes either!
My favourite part of the day was when a little girl fell in love with one of my tiny aliens and went away with it, with a bright smile on her face. It was 
so nice to see that other look upon my characters as lovingly as I do.

The Kiosk looked fantastic! Well done! I was thinking of you on the day and am glad it was a success. Great birds and stitched canvases! Im certainly going to buy lots from you when Im over and come back home with a suitcase full of your beautiful creations! x
Pictures are grrreat! Don't we look busy beez! Well done for setting up and getting the show on the road. Looking forward to other great events.

What a sweet kiosk - I love that word - so much more evocative than stall or stand! This bloomin' weather! Binky and I have yet to finalise our layout - your kiosk looked good and firm on the ground! We do, like you, have jolly bunting at the ready. Good Luck with the next one!
Am miffed that I missed this *kicks own arse*
And there were cakes :-(
thanks my lovelies!
