Wool on Sundays – 58 (A Yellow Cardigan?)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays – 58! And thank you to everyone who linked up or stopped by last week :) This week I’ve taken a break from the mittens. You may remember that last week I said my pin of the chart had disappeared. I actually assumed I’d misplaced it but but, afterwards, I […]

Vintage Caravan Sewing Machine Cover – Adjusting the Pattern

I get a LOT of questions concerned with changing the size of my Vintage Caravan Sewing Machine Cover so I decided to make a post, here, to suggest ways of doing this. The finished size of the cover is: 20″ X 13″ X 9″ The cover is free standing so I would suggest that it’s […]

Wool on Sundays – 57 (more of the same…)

Welcome to another Wool on Sundays! I hope everyone is keeping well and warm :) I’m sorry to say that all I have show this week is more of the same. Or nearly the same. I actually decided to abandon the mitten from last week and start again with a new chart, which I […]

Wool on Sundays – 56 (Colour and Calm)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays – 56. This week I have been arranging hexagons… …and re-arranging hexagons… And frogging! I know I said wouldn’t frog but I decided to try changing the outer row of trebles for double crochets, which I think gives a better effect because it makes the edges pop a […]

It’s such […]

Wool on Sundays 54 – (old gloves/bad mittens and a quandary)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays 54. It’s a wonder to me how it always seems to be Sunday again already! This week, I have been taking one step forwards and two steps backwards. Most of my yarn time has been taken up, one way or another, with gloves… I can’t tell you how much […]

Wool on Sundays – 53 (more socks!)

Poppy got her name tag, btw, for supporting England in the Rugby World Cup… Welcome to another Wool on Sundays and thank you very much for the kind comments and links last week. It really is knitting in front of the fire weather, here, and by some kind of a miracle (more prosaically known as […]

…not afraid…

Because a heap of words is too many and not enough… Some pencils… a picture… and a few words of Joachim Roncin – the French Stylist who created this: “This is what Je Suis Charlie actually means: I am free, I am not afraid.” * * * * * * * Janine @ Rainbow Hare

A Scraptastic Start

Last year I really fell off the quilting wagon and I’ve resolved that there will be more sewing on Rainbow Hare in 2015. Scraptastic Tuesday seems like a good place to start! These are meant to look like like pencils… Only a small start but I hope by next week, with some more […]
