22.01.2022 Unfinished project 2 almost complete...just need to do a boarder and it will be ready to go somewhere, to someone.

21.01.2022 Another job complete...this one is for my sister in law to say a huge THANK YOU!! For all of her help when we were looking after Dad. Jo prepared and cooked meals for myself and my family, babysat Dad when I needed to go out, gave me some me time when I needed and was a shoulder for me when I really lost my shit. I am more grateful than you can ever imagine and just so happy that I have an awesome family who support each other through the tough times.

18.01.2022 Finally made myself something haha. And it’s soooo true (if I was paying for my therapy)

17.01.2022 Hey all, got some bad news today. I’m going to have to go and have a lumbar spinal fusion as well as bilateral sacroiliac fusions (the hip bits that joint to your tail boneish area) in the next few weeks. I’ll be in hospital for approx 5 days and then 3-6 months of recovery time. I’m not sure how I’m going to cope and honestly, I’m scared shitless!! Hopefully, I’ll still feel like crocheting, what else am I going to be able to do?? I shall keep you all up to date on when and where this will all be happening. Much love xox

16.01.2022 Another set complete. They are actually so much fun to make and sooo little. I think I’ll have to drag out the pattern for adult sized moccies :-)

16.01.2022 This is my recovery blanket. It’s only a cot sized blanket and it’s taking me sooooo long to do!!! I know I shouldn’t expect too much of myself only 11 days post surgery, but it kinda feels like I’m learning to crochet again. Oh, it’s not finished yet either.

15.01.2022 Just something funny I came across today. Or, I will be looking for a my glasses and they are on my head.

07.01.2022 While I’m waiting for my order of yarn to arrive (so I can finish the blanket I’m working on), I thought I’d have a go at making a baby dress. It is easier than I thought and works up pretty quickly. So far so good...I think?

06.01.2022 Happy Easter Sunday everyone!! I hope the Easter bunny stopped in at your place and spoilt you all rotten. He most definitely stopped at our place. 5 year old GD not yet awake.....waiting impatiently #eastersunday2021 #lotsofchocolate #marshmallowbunnies #notmypicture #familytime

04.01.2022 I haven’t made any crochet toys in a long time, so thought I’d use the left over yarn from my project to see how many I can make. #crochet #crochetaddict #amigurumi #crochettoys #whynot #itcouldbeugly

04.01.2022 I got some big balls.....of yarn . I’m one happy hooker haha watch this space for my newest blanket using this, almost 1km, of soft yarn .

It’s going to be an amazing gift #sunflowers #larnaslittlethings #burlapdecor #paperflowers #ilivetocraft #lovewhatyoudodowhatyoulove #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #craftingismytherapy #custommade #personalisedgifts

03.01.2022 My rustic, crochet snowflake, Christmas ornament. Getting in the spirit of Christmas

03.01.2022 And this is why I wash everything before it gets sent out!! Honey is my Assistance dog, she doesn’t shed BUT, she does get dirty sometimes.

02.01.2022 I’ve had a lot of people recently ask me why hand made crocheted blankets cost so much? I’ll give you a bit of insight. At the moment, I am making a queen sized granny square blanket. To complete the blanket, I require 130 granny squares at 15x15cm. Each square takes me just over 20 minutes to complete. That’s almost 45 hours. Then, you have to join all of those squares together. Each row takes about an hour to complete and there are 13 rows...so now we are up to 58 ho...urs. Then we need to do a border as well so that it looks all neat, tidy and pretty. There’s another 10 or so hours of work = 68 hours. Now we have to include the cost of the yarn used. Each ball of yarn costs between $4 and $8. We’ll use $6 as an average. At the rate I am going, it will take 15 balls of yarn to complete the project = $90 So let’s add it up:- 68 hours of labour @ $5/hr = $340 (Totally Criminal labour rates - who would seriously work for that??) Yarn @ $90 And a crochet hook @ $15 (I will totally ruin a hook by the time I have finished this project) So that’s a total of $445. I’m lucky if I get $250 for a blanket this size. Is it worth it??

02.01.2022 Last item to be posted on Facebook before I go into surgery on Wednesday the 10th of June. I won’t be taking any new orders for however long it takes me to recover. I will keep you all informed. This item is a baby snuggly. It’s supposed to be a duck but I’m not convinced. Going cheap (just the cost of the yarn) $10 plus the ever present p&h, unless you want to pick up from New Beith (Greenbank) or possibly Forest Lake.
