yarn eater/rug muncher

potaytoe.potahtoe.

so i've now got a handful of little crafty vixens here at work that i've taught to crochet.
and last year our learning project was to create versions of the house of holland shawl for ourselves.
this year's project is going to be the wool eater!

both me and beautiful and wonderful caroline started ours out in peachy colours today:

and now i'm back...

...from bristol!

went for the festival and yarnbombed a bit - people and things.

now back at work - glitter free and very very tired and needing some help with project.

i've got something that i need machine knitted, and something else that is kinda related hand knitted...yes i know it's very very vague but its double uber top secret.

please get in touch if you think you might be able to help, thanks!

holiday time

well tis a bank holiday weekend and it's been all work work work and no play play play or even hook hook hook...am so looking forward to just getting on the beach in ibiza and crocheting and tanning for hours and hours!

life.

i' so so sorry to those of you that are coming here looking for crochet, and lately only getting trashy posts...

...my life hasn't been very crafty lately at all.

and to tell the truth i'm findin' the fallout of the article below hard to deal with.

my daughter is telling the truth. i wish i could show the txt messages on her iphone to the whole world. and now all those times i wished i had cctv that followed me - well, damn if only i did! i'd love to be able to show you all how he lied to my face the spent then night at our house.

ugh.

it's been so hard watching my daughter go through this. especially as it's been so globally public.

the internet is a big part of my life and my work, but dammit sometimes!

lumplift?

The hospital was weird. Need to make a decision about the lump that is there - get it sorted or get another lift at the same time...luckily was only at the clinic for just over 2 hours but did have 3 sets of tests and saw 2 consultants so pretty much value for money!

Then headed straight to knitclub - combining work with fun is always good. I love that there are so many geeky girls there. Sat outside til around 10pm drinking white wine and ginger beer and just not wanting to go home...thanks so much to all the wednesday night girls/boys for getting me through the post hospital haze. Love you all so much!

Went home and spent ages on the phone with the scandotoy.
He's going to come over and be here for me when I decide to get the lumplift.
Despite everything it is sorted

need some mojo gogo.

i'm losing my crochet mojo...

i've got 2 projects now on the go/on hold for the fiance but the way things are so up and down i find it too upsetting to work them up anymore.

so tonight i'll go to bed with my audio book (after this tivo'd episode of 24, and some yoga) and make a different blue 12 pointed celestial katamari star.

tomoro night will be spent baking - as i'm going to go to bake camp instead of social media camp this weekend - that is if i don't go away some where with the fiance or run away with a knitter to wonderwool in wales (is anyone actually going still???)
