It’s been a week for staying indoors and crocheting in between the showers, so that’s exactly what I’ve done, in between recovering from shingles and attempting to avoid my son’s cold germs. It’s still really cold for May, so I felt the need to make myself a new crochet ear warmer. My post-chemo hair growth…… Continue reading May 8th crochet chatter
It’s been another crochet week, including a ‘just for fun’ project I’d been meaning to try. I haven’t been terribly productive as I’ve been at work a lot, but even so, some progress has been made. I’ll start with the ‘business’ project. It’s another pair of slippers, this time for a man. I agreed to…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-11th October
Well, this week came up with a surprise WIP and it’s been turned into a finished object already! On Monday I was clearing a cupboard and found this: It had been packed away for at least 18 months, possible longer and harks back to a time when I was delusional enough to think I would…… Continue reading WIP Wednesday-15th February

There. I said it. Tonight I have had 3 hours of uninterrupted crochet time and I’ve only packed up because I have work tomorrow. I’m up to the start of round 12 of Sophie’s Garden and I just want to keep going because I’m so excited to see how the next part will turn out.…… Continue reading My Name is Mrs Craft and I am Addicted to Crochet
Between all of the cardmaking and wood burning my crochet WIP has been a tad neglected, though it has grown quite a bit. I’ve had to change the pattern of colours from my original idea as it although was intended to be a yarn eating project it has been a bit greedier than planned! I…… Continue reading Woolly WIP Update
