Finally Finished the Monstrous Beast
It started 10 years ago, in 2009, in a yarn buying frenzy in the John Lewis Sale. I joyfully skipped to the checkout with 20 balls of delicious black Rowan RYC Silk Wool DK in my clutches. “That will make Ben a super jumper”, I thought….. Eight years later, in 2017, my constant waving of […]

Hello Again!
Ohhh, that was a long break from blogging. As you can see – I’m not dead! 😮 So what’s been going on? Well, I’ve had a couple of huge projects stealing all my blogging time –  one at work (which would bore you), and a huge disruptive one at home which is much more fun […]
