Mabel – The Hoarder Next Door
There comes a point, when rummaging to the back of your wardrobe and dredging past dusty numbers you haven’t worn in 5 years whilst hunting for a pair of shorts to wear to the park, that you have to face facts. Some of this gear has got to go. I am a hoarder. Maybe not quite Read the Rest »
The year of the round rim

You’ve got to be yoking – the yoke stops here.
The final instalment of the yoke project is here. If you missed the first three, they can be found HERE and HERE and HERE. Some might say the way I’ve dragged this out has been ‘beyond a yoke’. To them I say, ‘stuff you, it’s been a busy time, OK?’. And I’m sure with that Read the Rest »

I’m cracking on with this yoke and I’m learning all sorts of stitches in the process. Don’t worry, they’re all very easy – I’m no sewing wizard – if I can do it, we all can! If you’re catching up, here is PART 1 and PART 2. The idea for this and many of the Read the Rest »
