London

London yesterday was a treat! I met the lovely Nush again, and we headed up to Loop. I do apologise for the squeaking, jibbering and excessive yarn gropage, but oh. my. god. That place is GORGEOUS. We spent about an hour in there, talking about llamas and cats that look like Lenin. Nush and I [...]

Five Things meme

I’ve been tagged by Nush! Anyone who wants to do it, consider yourself tagged!
1 - One of my major goals in life is to be multi-lingual. Yeah. Well I currently learn French and Spanish at college and I’d like to study some combination of French, Spanish or Dutch at university. Or possibly Russian. As you [...]

Sorry folks

I was hoping to show you my progress on Fetching butI had my camera stolen last night. I won’t bore you with the details on here but I posted about it on my LJ (Link to the right).
 Anyway. I’ve finished one (I don’t know whether they’re mittens or gloves or wristwarmers or what) and I’ve [...]

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! New layout, new picture, new start 2007 is going to be a good one. Lots more crafting content (new crafts at that) and more positive!
I’ve decided not to craft for other people for a while - I’ve become somewhat unmotivated with making things. So I’ve come up with a little To-Do [...]

Update

Just a quick post!
Things aren’t going too great at the moment - college is being a pain in the arse (as am I - not feeling well) and I feel like I’m going round and round in circles. Nothing craft-related has happened since the last post. At all. Nada. I’m totally lacking in any… “oomph” [...]

Procrastination…

… It’s my middle name.

Smurf by name, Smurf by hair colour
Black kitty hat is almost finished, just needs pompoms. Started the purple and yellow kitty hat, at the decreases now (These hats knit up so quickly, and to think I was putting off knitting them!). The crochet hat went to the frogging pond - I [...]

Very Bazarre, London

Was great! (When I finally got there, after getting lost in Clapham Common and phoning my mum asking for help) There were some lovely stalls, and such nice people too. I met the lovely Nush, whose mum made the best cupcakes I think I’ve ever tasted. Seriously, they were DELICIOUS! I sat at Nush’s stall for a while and we tried to do some [...]

I loved it!  My mum and I met Rachel John, who is an extreme knitter - she was knitting a rug with 60 strands! There was a second set of needles and pile of yarns, and people could sit down and knit a row. I was too [...]
