Can you believe it’s December tomorrow? I sure can’t. Christmas decorations have gone up, but it feels almost too soon, in a way. I do have plans to make a couple more decorations this month in-between making gifts, so hopefully that will make me feel more festive. In the meantime, I am well into the…… Continue reading Project Roundup

My second crochet blanket is coming along nicely. I am over halfway through the squares now, and I’ve been thinking about how I’ll join them all together. I might connect the rows into strips first, then assemble them into three blocks (rows 1-4, 5-8, and 9-12), then stitch the blocks together. That shouldn’t be too…… Continue reading Project Roundup

It feels like there’s loads happening behind the camera at the moment! Some of those things are gifts, so they need to stay secret, but in the meantime, I’ve been dyeing more socks for myself. These were completed last weekend, and I’m happy with the different colour combinations I did this time. The brown is…… Continue reading Project Roundup

I like to do any mending for summer clothes in winter, when I have a spare moment, so they are prepared for the next hot season. Thus, this leafy shirt I made at the start of this year has some little holes developing under the underarms. Can you see it? There is a patch on…… Continue reading Project Roundup

All the pattern pieces are ready to go, I jut need a few days to sew them together. I am also replacing…… Continue reading Project Roundup

First of all, an update on the blanket: I’ve finished three of the seven stripes, and just started the fourth. This purple stripe will go in the centre of the blanket, so when this is done, I’ll be over halfway through! In Tea at Yaz’s news, I have made (one of) the lattice(s) that will…… Continue reading In Progress

I have three Big Projects I’m working on at the moment – first one is my patchwork pants, which I have made quite a bit of progress on. All the above bundles of squares have been assembled (thanks, long weekends)…. ….and I’ve finished quilting all four panels for one pair just this afternoon. I am…… Continue reading Project Roundup

This shirt is nearly done being upcycled (finally!); I just need to source some nice buttons, and it’s ready for winter. I have also started another crochet project – this one is a little smaller, though! Eventually, this leaf will be part of an ivy plant. I’ve also cut out another garment for myself, from…… Continue reading Project Roundup

My love for winter does not pass when the temperatures rise; in fact, I have already started preparing for next winter. This piece of crochet will (eventually) be my first crochet blanket! The pattern is the Irish Shores blanket by The Guy With The Hook, and I’m using a cotton yarn. This is the first…… Continue reading Project Roundup
