I am Forgiven
I have finally been forgiven for being a bad, unfaithful wife and knitting for another man. How did Ben attain this state of nirvana? It only took me to knit a beautiful pair of socks and me to finish his Drifter 😀 The finishing is timely – The weather here is still freezing and Ben has a […]

Ben’s Evil Druid Hoodie

If you remember, readers, he also lost a hat I’d lovingly made for […]
I would have, but I was terrified it was full of moth lavae. It went straight in the dustbin!
Its a real shame about your tumbling blocks cushion. The rest of it is still so pretty I'd be tempted…
The fronts look just fabulous, and the back calculations and planning are quite genius!
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…
