Well here we are at the end of the Twisted Roots MAL, and I can hardly believe it. It’s been so much fun chatting with everyone and seeing you making my scarf! I’ll be honest, in the last year or so my knitting mojo has taken quite a hit and I’ve really not done a lot of knitting at all …

Hi everyone! Well, here we are already in Week Three of the Twisted Roots MAL and I have been enjoying watching everyone’s progress so much. We have reached that stage where most have been helped through any difficult bits getting started and are now off knitting away while I wait eagerly for updates!  🤣 Before I dig in to share …

  Hoorah, we have a winner for the Twisted Roots MAL Giveaway!!  🥳 Today I gathered up all the comments on my Facebook and Instagram and used a random name picker to choose 10 from each post. I then put those 20 names back in the generator and Kimberly Hernandez was our lucky winner! She will be receiving three balls …

Happy New Year and welcome to the start of the Twisted Roots MAL! I still can’t believe that it’s 2021 already, I feel like I am in a bizarre time warp where time moves too slowly and too quickly all at the same time! It’s not just me, right? Anyway, I’m so happy to be sharing this project with you …

I’m doing a little happy dance now that I finally share the Twisted Roots MAL with you! I’ve been looking forward to this for quite a while now and I think it’s a great way for us all to kick off the new year! When Scheepjes asked if I’d be interested in having a MAL for this project, I was …

I’m so happy to finally show you my Sliding Tiles Blanket. Yes, it has a name! I put a call out to my Scheepjes Bloggers to help me think of a name, and after some discussion, Simy Somer mentioned that it reminded her of one of those sliding tile puzzles we used to do back in the day, remember those?! Maybe some …

Hello everyone! I am back to share the pattern for my Chain Reaction Socks with you! As I mentioned in my previous post these are the perfect socks for crashing in front of the TV with your latest Netflix binge, or for on the go. There are only two rows of actual pattern work and the rest is all just knit, …

I figured it was time for an update on the Metropolis socks I posted about a little while ago! The socks are finished but I don’t have proper photos or the pattern written up just yet, but I do have some WIP photos and info to share. When I wrote my previous post, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do …

Yesterday Scheepjes announced their new yarn, Whirl Fine-Art, which is taking Whirl to a whole new level! It still has the long, beautiful colour changes we all love, but now in a Superfine Merino blend in DK weight. It is the same blend as in the Merino Soft line, which means they are a perfect match for using together in whatever gradient project …

Hello friends! Wow, it really has been a spectacularly long time, hasn’t it? As usual, so much has changed since I last wrote, I don’t even know where to begin. We’ve moved AGAIN, and are now living in the very south of France in the city of Montpellier. It was a very rough year, 2019, for various reasons, which lead to this …
