Learning to knit...badly.

I have never quite managed to grasp knitting very well, and since I have a fair bit of time on my hands, and a children's knitting book, I thought I'd give it a go... again.

When our elderly next door neighbour died, her family kindly gave me a huge bag of mixed yarns to use, so I'm aiming to make a knitted paperchain for my uni room this year, to make it a bit less grim!


Next project (eventually) will be a teacosy for an ace 70's brown teapot my mum found for me. :)


Finally some of my new cake brooches are available on Folksy, also in the lovely Queenies Cupcakery in Ironbridge. More will be listed online in the next few days, along with some of my recycled plastic heart brooches.
