Enlisting the help of Hugo and Sandra to showcase my finished 'C2C' crochet blanket! 😍
2 weeks in the making and a brand new pattern to follow, I'm pretty chuffed with how it's turned out!
Complete with some sheep and alpaca wool mix, it'll be lovely and warm for the winter months! 🥰

It is of course, Miss T's amazing fleece - a Teeswater ewe 🥰

Can anyone guess the breed of sheep that this gorgeous curly wool belongs to? 😍

Penny and Peggy the Suffolk mule pet lambs from 4 years ago aren't keen on this snow malarkey! 😅

I decided I would crack on and make a load of stock up this month, ready for next Christmas but the world has other plans!

A morning spent taking hay out to all the sheep, getting ready for lambing in a month and I may have sneaked in 10 minutes of sledging down the hill on a feed bag too! 🫣😅

Hope everyone's keeping warm in this weather! 🌨

Still got a few rug orders to complete but the current wool washing situation is on pause, due to having 3 buckets of frozen wool outside soaking ... 🤦🏾‍♀️😂

What do you do on those days between Christmas and new year, other than eat all the chocolate you've been gifted...

Make a large valais rug to complete an order, obviously! 😅🎄🎅

Watched the final of The Game of Wool whilst eating a round of shortbread alongside making said rug 😝

Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas! 🥳🎁

When you refuse to buy a basket to hold your growing selection of yarn..
But buy more yarn to make a basket to hold your yarn..
Probably at more expense than just buying a basket to hold your yarn ....
But where's the fun in just buying a basket?!
😅🤩🤣
1 week in the making, big enough to sit in and one yarn basket is created! 🤯

I did a thing!! 😲🤩

At the end of last month I turned 30 and something I've always wanted to do was have a go on a potters wheel..

We found a woman half an hour away who teaches pottery throwing, booked on for a 2 hour session and off we went..

It was brilliant! Like truly brilliant, thoroughly enjoyed it and only had 1 wobble pot that collapsed 😅

Got these back this week and I've even amazed myself with how they've turned out!
Just look at the cup! It's like a proper cup! 🤣

Now to persuade Santa to deliver a potters wheel and a kiln.. 🙊😅😍
