Hello!
I'm not going to lie, the last 7 days have been a bit crazy here. I've had my second cataract operation which knocked me sideways for a couple of days and then my daughter has been hit with chicken pox. Don't believe the myth that you can only get them once - we are on our 3rd time of having them - mild each time.

Anyway I now have a pair of reading glasses and can see my screen again!
And what did I spot when I logged in this morning? This fabulous bag A has made from the crochet squares workshop session we did. What a fab idea. ☀🌙🧶

Moons and sunshines for this month's crochet blocks session. We are getting a fab collection.

I hold this session once a month. Great for all levels of crocheters (but you must know the basics stitches).
