Off to Some Good Market Tomorrow

Black Hen Studio's Naturally Dyed Handspun Yarn
We are off to Some Good Market tomorrow. The Market is usually held in Makinsons, Newfoundland but tomorrow it is off to the big city of St. John's. Over 60 vendors from across the province will be showcasing their wares. It is going to be a great event. Laurie Legrow is the driving force behind Some Good Market. The bi-weekly event started in her garden and quickly outgrew the space.
