I’m back again with a closer look at the final colourway for this CAL 🙂 This is Woodland Wander, a colourway in Stylecraft Special DK. I chose these colours for two reasons. Firstly, to offer a brighter colourway than the two in Highland Heathers, with earth tones and neutrals contrasting with the deeper, richer red … More The Winding Path – Woodland Wander
Belatedly, I’m back to give you all a closer look at the second colourway for this blanket, Highland Hike. This colourway was actually the third colourway I chose, after Moorland Meander and Woodland Wander, because I kept playing with these colours and I decided I couldn’t resist. Officially, I chose this as a palette to … More The Winding Path – Highland Hike

It’s the first colourway I chose, and really the inspiration behind the blanket as a whole.

This year, for obvious reasons, things are looking rather different! … More Glad tidings of great joy I bring

Hello all – long time, no see. I took you all at your word, and have spent the last few months not worrying about crochet/this blog/updates. As you know, for quite a long time I couldn’t crochet at all anyway – and besides, the garden has kept me busy, and the cats, and the chickens. … More Spin Me Around – redux
Hello! And welcome to the Stylecraft ‘Blogstar on the Beach’ party 😀 After the fun we had last year, working on the Blogstars Garden Party, we decided we simply had to do something similar again this year. This year, rather than a garden party, we’ve geared up to head out to a beach. And this … More Pretty Parasol
Some weeks ago I shared a picture of a draft excluder I’d made, and promised to share some tips/some sort of pattern with you all at some point, if there was any interest. There was some interest! And here is the promised pattern. Though I do hesitate to call it a pattern, because it’s really … More Draft Excluder
As promised, I am back with a pattern for you all! You may remember me showing this off to you all last December. At the time it was really too late to release it as a pattern, but I promised I would remember in time for this year, and here it is! I genuinely adore … More Nativity Set
