I’m sorry I haven’t posted in nearly a month.
I’ve not been well over the last month, and it’s really taken it out of me - I’ve just not done anything craft-related since then. It’s extremely frustrating for me, not feeling up to doing anything, although I have done a couple of rows on my Ripple. [...]
Finished mittens
I’ve worn these every day this week, I love them! I may try and knit some more with a flap, you know those mittens that you can either wear as mittens or as fingerless gloves? They might be more practical!
I also finished my first sock this week. I nearly cried. I can’t [...]
Closeup - click for the full view,
I had real trouble trying to knit the heel flap on this, so I took it along to my knitting group (yes, I found a local knitting group! :D) and a lovely lady (I think her name was Lucy) taught me how to do it. Now I’m steaming up [...]
I sort of… Went for it…

Just thought I’d make a quick post to say that I’ve left college for the summer now*, so this means I theoretically have the next two and a half months devoted to craft. There defintely needs to be some changes for me over this time; to manage my time better, be more productive, be less afraid [...]
Sorry everybody - I didn’t anticipate not blogging for so long. I’m up shit creek at college so I’ve been stressing about that and not doing much of anything to resolve it. And I’ve really not done anything on the craft front anyway, except for maybe half a row on the Ripple whilst keeping the [...]
OK, so yesterday speaking to Meshell about Rippling, I said that I would have my first ripple of the afghan completed by 1st April. Yes, slow but steady is my excuse. But you can all hold me to this and tell me off if I don’t do it! Mum and I were crashed out on [...]
I think I’ve found my yarn for a blanket…
Debbie Bliss Cotton Angora and Cotton Cashmere
Eeep. But my justification is that in total it cost £24, when at full price it would have cost £64. So I cannot be held responsible for bargain shopping like that.
Or something.

My last post looks a mess, and I can’t edit it properly! Arrrgh!
Anyway:
Meshell: Of course I’ll be whoring posting copious pictures of my room! It’s an absolute tip at the moment though, and I’m normally so tidy!
Emily: Flickr tells me that I’m using a Panasonic DMC-LS2 and the good photos are pure chance as I know [...]
