RAINBOW HARE

The Leap List

A special post for the 29th February with a Mrs Hare Story and a most practical list.

On waking, I rarely remember my dreams but I do day dream a lot – mostly about the things I’m going to make if I ever have time – so I evolved this quilt around the byline of my blog: Dream in Colour, Create in Fabric, Thread, Yarn, Words, Whatever you have to hand…

Exciting News

Here is a piece of exciting news. Some time towards the end of July, I will become a Grandma. Of course, this means knitting but, having only had babies myself during the colder months, it’s hard to get to grips with the idea of trying to keep a newborn cool. So I’m knitting some 3-6 […]

Merry Mid Winter

Wool on Sundays – 166 (Christmas Knitting)

Happy December and Welcome to Wool on Sundays! I have had nearly a year, now, with decent internet and almost no making to blog about and suddenly, during a month without being online, I’ve become a knitting factory! I’ve been trying to combine making Christmas presents with using yarn from stash and these hats enabled […]
