Hetty Colour Experiments
I love the new Rowan magazine no.48. This one From Hetty It’s been a really long time since I’ve been excited by the contents of a Rowan mag but this one did it for me. I wasn’t so keen on the first “story” all big chunky yarns – we know from my Big Wool Bonfire […]
It made me the KSH junkie I am today…

I am in awe of your skills Susan. Looking forward to seeing the finished mistresspiece. x
Oh my goodness!! What am amazing job on creating your own back design. I still haven't tried a steek yet…
