• SUPER CHUNKY CROCHET BASKET – FREE PATTERN

    Couple of weeks ago we did a little weekend trip to Willingford and I came back with two wonderful wooden crochet hooks. 20mm and 25mm. Testing always takes a little time with new hooks. I think the 25mm will make some nice chunky…

  • CORNER TO CORNER CROCHET – FREE DOWNLOAD

    This is a relatively new technique for me. I first came across it as part of a CAL blanket in 2016, but last year I realised you can make pixelated images by using cross stitch or knitting patterns. Mind you I wouldn’t pick…

  • CROCHET AUTUMN LEAVES – FREE PATTERN

     This is my favourite time of the year. Mind you I might say that every time a new season starts. Though I don’t go to school anymore I still get a strong start of school flashback every year that makes me buy new…

  • CROCHET UNICORN ALICE BAND – FREE PATTERN

    I got a request to make one of these, but after some googling was convinced that I should just buy one. I mean they are everywhere at the moment and I’m currently struggling with some Christmas socks (yep, already). But as I was…

  • COFFEE, POIROT & SUPER CHUNKY FRUIT

    The summer always goes so fast, right? Or perhaps I just slow down so much it flies by. The weather in Sussex has been so beautifully sunny and dry for so long now, I’m starting to fear that we will be paying for it…

  • FABRIC TEEPEE

    These fabric teepees are all over Pinterest so naturally I wanted to make one too. Though where the Pinterest teepees look stylish and chic, mine looks like a colourful patchwork circus tent. But my kid doesn’t know any better and to be honest,…

  • BLUE FLEA MARKET CASE

    I found this lovely lovely case in Lewes Flea Market and just had to have it. It’s just so cute, and I can always find a use for a handy piece of storage accessory like this. Slight problem was the paper covering the…

  • FABRIC HOUSE

    I finally got the curtains and the “door” in place. It may have taken a year, but now our fabric house is complete. Woop woop! First of all I must apologise for the pictures are not that great. Not only is the carpet in…
