It’s been a while since I posted, but at least I have some new WIPs to talk about! Last time I posted, I mentioned that I was knitting a pair of socks for Mr C on double pointed needles. I enjoyed making them so much that I cast on a pair for myself once I’d…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-9th October
I now have three projects on the go, and all are coming along nicely thanks to some long car journeys on holidays. I am up to the heart bobble squares on the unicorn dreams blanket. I need to make 25 and each takes quite a long time, so I might be on this stage for…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-21st August
This week started with me having grand plans of starting a new WIP. The yarn gods had other plans for me though! Two days later, I had unravelled every knot and was able to begin my planned project. This rainbow cotton yarn has been in my stash for almost two years and I finally found…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-24th April
We are in week 2 of the Easter holidays, so we’ve been ever so busy going places. On the days Mr C has been off, we have ventured quite far from home which allowed me to do some car knitting/crochet between navigating duties. I sort of lost the love for knitting and crochet last week-I…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-17th April
There hasn’t been much to report lately, but I do have a new WIP and progress on an older one. Thanks to the clock change I now also stand a chance of taking photos in natural light in the evenings too, which almost makes up for the protests from my children about going to sleep…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-3rd April
Things here have been a little crazy with the summer holidays, but the long car journeys for days out have proved very useful for sock knitting. I’ve finally finished my Winwick Mum easy lace socks! The yarn I used was from the West Yorkshire Spinners Florist Collection, and I chose the colour as my intention…… Continue reading FO Friday-10th August
It’s finally the school holidays! I’m not sure whether that actually means more craft time or not, but at least I can relax a bit with the kids and maybe do some craft with them. I’ve kept fairly up to date with the Coastal Crochet CAL, with only a couple of rows left to do…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-25th July
Its sweltering here, but gloriously sunny. It does mean that it’s very warm even at night, so crocheting on a larger project like the Coastal Crochet CAL has to be done in small chunks. We’ve also spent a lot of time watering the allotment which has cut into my craft time too (hopefully it’ll be…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-27th June
I haven’t written a WIP post for two weeks, but at least this one will show some progress! The last week has been a bit busy with a tonne of cards to make for Father’s Day, birthdays and anniversaries. Yarn crafts have yet again been put on the back burner, but I did manage some…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-20th June
It’s been a while since I was able to write a WIP Wednesday post, as I just hadn’t done much crafting. However, our recent holiday gave me plenty of time for knitting and crochet and I’ve managed to carry that on to some extent since we got home. I’ve done a lot of catching up…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-6th June
