Hi all, How is everyone doing? Personally, I haven’t been feeling great, with everything going on everywhere. I mean, 2020 is just the year that keeps on giving in absolutely every way isn’t it? I suppose it is more remarkable if you haven’t been affected […]
Hey makers, How are you all doing in your individual lockdown / social distancing circumstances? To be honest, on my end I’ve been struggling, and been feeling perpetually tired. I’m trying not to be hard on myself about it, since things as they are are […]

Thought it was about time I’d share the finished Love Note sweater. You’ll have seen me posting progress shots of the sweater earlier in the summer. The pattern is by Tin Can Knits and came out earlier this year, in May. When the pattern was […]
