| Pompom Bees for sale |
Today was the first sale of the butterflies and bees from the Butterflies & Bees Yarnstorm in Rowntree Park, York. The sun was shining and we had lots of lovely things for sale, all made by the community of knitters, stitchers, crocheters and felters most of whom were local!

We were delighted with the response. There were so many lovely customers who came along to say how much they had enjoyed the display and were keen to take home a souvenir and in doing so, support the Friends of Rowntree Park. The Friends help maintain, improve and promote the park for everyone's enjoyment and were the charity our sale was supporting.

Here are just a few snaps of some of the fab butterflies and bees that we had to temp people and happily they were tempted. The beehive and bees found a new home too!
