Taking Classes – Getting All Icelandic
So, the Kidsilk Haze workshop was a day of playing, experimentation and fluffy indulgence. The following day I was busy because I played in a Netball tournament for a work team – I’ve played once since school and that was last year’s tournament! A huge amount of fun but not much knitting there! Following Netball, […]
Hetty Colour Experiments

KSH Shame…
I now need a self indulgent, luxurious project. Something beautiful to wear, soft as a kitten’s belly fur and ideally something I can use some of my every growing stash on.
