I've been knitting more on my very neglected Slips

I've been knitting more on my very neglected Slipstravaganza today 💙 It had been so long that it took ages to figure out where I was, so let that be a lesson to anyone with a big wip pile 😂 I'm now halfway through section 3, which is a diamond pattern. I'd also forgotten how soft this yarn from Skein Queen is 😍 I really need to find my longer cable too, but I have a feeling it's "in use" somewhere 😜

A finish! We have a finish on my page! The pattern

A finish! We have a finish on my page! The pattern does add some fringe to this, but after adding a few bits, I thought it was getting a bit too long so as this is something just to wrap up in at home, I'm skipping that bit. It's really chunky and has a good bit of weight with almost 8 balls of this aran yarn in it! I just love it - roll on winter!

Yarn: @stylecraftyarns Aran in Mocha
Pattern: @tl.crochet Boho Beaded Pocket Scarf

We have a pocket! We are away in Bristol this week

We have a pocket! We are away in Bristol this weekend, so I haven't brought the scarf as it's too chunky, but the pockets are perfect portable crochet 😁 Just one more to make and then we can join then on and make the fringe!

I've been plugging away at my Boho Beaded Pocket S

I've been plugging away at my Boho Beaded Pocket Scarf for the past week and I've finally finished the main scarf 😍 It's so wide and about as tall as me, so it's not the lightest thing 😂 I'm hoping I have enough yarn for the pockets and fringe left, but I think we might end up playing yarn chicken! Happy humpday everyone! 💙 Oh and this is so cosy - it's nippy tonight so I'm wrapped up in it!

I can share this now I've given these little baby

I can share this now I've given these little baby booties to the mum-to-be 💜 One of my lovely colleagues is expecting and will be going off on maternity soon, so I wanted to make her a little something for the wee yin 💙 I found these knitted booties and thought they were so cute! The pattern was in German though, so that took a bit of figuring out - German knitting abbreviations are different to English ones. Who'd have thought? 😜 I've used Sirdar Snuggle Baby Bamboo in Hush-a-bye and it's lovely and soft.

Happy humpday everyone! I've been monogamously wor

Happy humpday everyone! I've been monogamously working on my Boho Beaded Pocket Scarf this week and it's so wide already! Just past the halfway point and there's maybe 4 balls of this aran yarn in there already! It's definitely going to be so cosy! I'm so excited to finish this. Too bad it'll be summer soon enough 😂

Time to make some stars! It's a wet Saturday here,

Time to make some stars! It's a wet Saturday here, so the perfect day for some EPP, coffee and podcasts. This is my not-so-perfect start of one of the rosettes for La Passacaglia. I think it should look ok when it's quilted, but it's a fiddly project. I'm using acrylic temples and pre-cut pieces from Nancy's fab site @linapatchworkepp where I also bought the book. My fabric is by Moda and is a fat quarter bundle called Midnight Magic 2 🎃🌕 The next round is some 5 pointed stars - let's see how they go!

I've been working on my Continuum blanket today as we are having the usual grey bank holiday weather 😜 I love the chunky texture of these pillars in the last couple of rounds - I think this is going to be such a fabulous blanket! My nieces and nephews picked this coral colourway for my 40th birthday present back in March and as we are stuck in a not so sunny London, it's reminding me of our fun snorkeling trips on our travels 🐠🐟

Hold on to your hats, there's a finish on my feed!

Hold on to your hats, there's a finish on my feed! This is the EPP Travel Pouch by Red Handled Scissors 💙 I've used fabric by Liberty and added a bit of sparkle with this blue heart button. There's a magnetic clasp to keep it closed and swipe to see the bits for my La Passacaglia which I want to start tomorrow 😁 I love how portable EPP is - I can just chuck everything into a tote and have enough supplies for weeks of crafting! If you've not tried English Paper Piecing before, you just need some fabric, card, needle and thread or you can get a pack of little squares of fabric and hexie templates from Lina Patchwork to have a go!
