Last summer my daughter was helping at a Summer festival that she goes to called ‘Joust’ and she sent me an email with a copy of a photograph she had taken of a lady in a crochet top she had admired because “I thought you’d like to see it.” Always on the look out for… Read More Something for my Daughter
I have finally finished part six of the Sacred Space blanket CAL. The really crazy thing is that having finished the corner with the cream yarn, now that I had it. I realised that I had followed the colour choices for this part of the pattern slavishly, in that the last two rows were in… Read More Sacred Space part 6
Going to make a montage for November I realised that I do not have ones for either September or October. Now these montages are made as much for myself as for others because they are an excellent way to find out when I made a particular thing.

I suppose it is somewhere between turquoise and peacock blue. I have made both of the patterns… Read More At last I have something to show you!
I am always happy to see what other people make of my patterns and recently Tanya, who I think lives in Canada, sent me a picture of a Celtic Coaster she had made. I thought it was well made and enjoyed her strong primary colours. And then, and this is the clever bit, she sent… Read More Isn’t this clever!

It was hard to take photographs of this journey because of the movement and where we were sitting but I include… Read More Rhine Cruise – the mountains.
After having arrived in Basel the next morning we were taken by coach to Lucerne. This is the first sight we saw. We wandered through a busy market. I thought it was a shame we would be fed so well that there was no point in buying anything.Then Catherine and I decided to cross the… Read More Rhine Cruise – Lucerne
I finished parts three and four a while ago but thought I would wait to update you all. Especially as I get the feeling that this is maybe of interest to less people. Notes for part 3 I had a fairly clear idea of what I wanted for this part but was following the pattern… Read More Sacred Space parts 3, 4 and 5
I have spent this summer waiting for my energy levels to stop being extremely variable and unpredictable so I could have some interesting outings. Unfortunately I waited all in vain; however I was also being careful not to risk a Chronic Fatigue major relapse because I was going on a river cruise with my eldest… Read More Almost Adventures
