Wider Achievement: Enterprise

We also made decorations, like balls of wool with knitting needles which we sold at the Whalsay Wool Week “Makin and Yakin” for £3 each. We even got a commission for some more.

Carrie said she enjoyed the needle felting, making and selling the yarn balls!
Tasnim, Ashley, Molly and Ria enjoyed the needle felting the most and hope to do it again!
