Autumn/Winter Sewing Plans

      4 Comments on Autumn/Winter Sewing Plans

Every season I keep planning my new seasons sewing. I don’t often get round to sewing what I have dreamed about sewing, but this year I have been trying to stream line my wardrobe and make it more inline with a “capsule wardrobe”. I will never get to throwing everything out and just having 36 items of clothing or how… Read more »

My First Crochet!

      No Comments on My First Crochet!

So although I have done some knitting before, I’ve never really done any crochet. When we were in Scandinavia on holiday recently Pippa was crocheting (as we thought crochet hooks were better to take through security than knitting needles) and I thought it would be nice to try something.
