WIP Watch, December 2019
Welcome to WIP Watch! I have a layout in my bullet journal to track progress on my WIPs (works in progress). I have quite a few of them, but I find that once I have listed them, I am more aware of them and I am more inspired to finish them. Here’s another layer of…
November is here!
How did we get to November? And how did we get halfway through it in the blink of an eye? I’ve been busy with a few ad-hoc jobs for Stitch & Story, namely working at the Spirit of Christmas Fair at Olympia and making some Woodstock amigurumis. Woodstock is available now for pre-order and ships…
Crochet Bun Hat
Hat Hair I usually don’t have the kind of hair that goes well with a hat. So I don’t wear one. When I get caught out in the cold, I usually have no other option than to wrap my scarf up around my ears and head. This problem is no more! I have found a…
A Chunky Knit!
Chunky=Fast! I have been lucky enough to have done some freelance work for Stitch & Story, a knitting and crochet kit company who provide premium kits suitable for beginners. The aim is to keep it simple and encourage new crafters by giving them a project they can complete in a short time. Between working at…
Setting up for November
Organised Chaos! My favourite way to decorate my bujo (bullet journal) is to use stamps and ink. I ordered something online from Stampin’ Up, and got a freebie stamp set. This is it! I love it. I used it to decorate a few pages that I made at Sunday’s Plan With Me workshop at Unravel…
Tunisian 10-stitch Blanket

You know I have a thing for variegated yarn, but this one really wins the prize as far as I’m concerned. To best…
Spotty Knitted Tube WIP
Switching it up… Most of my yarny time recently has been spent with crochet, but when I saw Kate Selene’s spotty tube in one of her Car Park Chats, I immediately knew what yarn in my stash I would use for this lovely project! I recently took advantage of a deal from Lincoln Woolpack for…
20/20: All done!
Whew! There’s nothing like being done! I was seriously starting to feel it in my shoulder. I had managed to do the final layers on about 10 of the 25 prints before I ran out of time yesterday. This morning, after a late and rather stressful start to the day, I got back to it.…
The 20/20 Print Exchange
Past Participants It’s that time of year again. The 20/20 print exchange! I signed up months ago and then my whole creative world blew up, so I’m just now getting round to it! The 20/20 print exchange is run by an outside third party, and our studio, Intra Arts, contributes to the exchange every year,…
