Wool on Sundays – 116 (a portable project…)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays! I’m sorry I didn’t manage to put up a Wool on Sundays post last week. We went away for my daughter’s graduation (you can see some photos in my (Summer in Colour post) and I somehow managed to delete my post. Of course, I needed a portable project! After […]

Summer in colour

I am not very good at ‘wandering camera’. In June my Son came to stay with his fiancee, her sister and her sister’s husband. They set off on a walk with Poppy to our nearest village, which is a couple of miles away, and ten minutes later the skies opened in a torrential downpour so […]

Wool on Sundays – 115 (Sorry)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays and, if anyone is still here, sorry for yet another ripple blanket post. I promise this will be the last before the Tada. I’m not sure if that will be next week but, if not, then next week I will talk about something else! Here are some stripes from this week. […]

Wool on Sundays – 114 (whispers wake, shudders play, ripples grow)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays, which I have decided, on this very noisy day in the UK, to keep as a quiet, calm place to reflect as usual on endeavours in the world of wool and yarn. And thank you very much to everyone who visited last week. I’m not sure if I mentioned it […]

Wool on Sundays -113 (Halfway?)

Wool on Sundays – 111 (409 stitches)

Welcome to another Wool on Sundays :) Next weekend I will be in York to bring back my youngest daughter, who after a long time and a LOT of work, has passed all her exams and finished being a medical student, though she says she probably can’t say she’s a Doctor until she graduates in […]

Hexie Mania

When I started the New to Me pastime of EPP Hexies earlier in the month, I can’t say that I wasn’t warned about how addictive Hexies can be… I used them, whilst still in progress, for another New to Me project – The Small Crochet Frame Purse Tutorial – but my actual piecing wasn’t great and […]

Wool on Sundays -110 (A Fancy Flower Purse)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays! This week I decided to try out a variation of the Small Crochet Purse Tute – a fancy flower for if I go to the opera or something…! And I was quite pleased with it until I put it down on a pretty vintage table cloth and saw the first roses […]
