A snapshot of my week in my super colourful and busy yarn studio in the Peak District!
There’s so much happening now in the build up to big Autumn shows and winter excitement - it’s true, us crafters love the cosy seasons, all those knitwear ideas now start coming to life…
Swipe along to see just a tiny bit of what came in and what went out this week…
Just to note : new KnitEasy dates are online, Wednesday pre-bookable throughout the season - I can see some lovely new faces have booked on! This is a great way to mooch my yarn too!
I’ll be at Yarndale East Neuk Knits and another in the South of the UK too which is super exciting so prep is in full swing!
And Autumn / Winter Open Studio dates and in the thought process too ❤️ keep an eye on my events page - there’s a handy link in my bio ❤️
Have a fabulous weekend, I’ve got samples to work on and beaded plans, I hope you’ve got great creative ones too!

KAL Complete! Here’s my Ranunculus details, keep watching and see below 💚
💚 I used : 1 x Mamie and Florrie Under the Gunnera Adventure Sock held with 1 x Under the Gunnera Mohair - I used just over one of each but that’s because I had to rip back my first attempt. I’m confident I could have made a slightly shorter one with one of each.
💚I knit : size 4, wide neck, short sleeve version and I knit my body measuring 25cm to bottom of hem including a 8cm rib.
💚My feelings on this knit: 💚💚💚💚💚 loved it, an easy knit with some concentration for an accomplished knitter.
💚This is the Summer 2026 Mamie and Florrie KAL. We have a KAL group on Instagram and it has been wonderful for questions, chat, progress and updates, thank you wonderful KAL’ers for sharing your tips and friendship!
💚There is going to be a Mamie and Florrie Autumn KAL starting mid September and this is going to an all inclusive knit for abilities starter to advanced - same pattern but you choose to pimp up a basic shape as you like! It’s going to be a banger!! See you here? Drop me a comment 💚💚💚💚

A huge thank you to everyone who come to North East Wool Show yesterday, it was so busy!
Day two and the last day today and the chance to talk colour, fibre projects and more. Aren’t we so lucky we have the love of craft in our lives?

Buckle up! You know I like to chat! Here’s a little bit of what I’m bringing to the North East Wool Show!
Excuse the rubbish editing, I’m conscious it’ll be bed time by the time you’ve watched through 😂
In essence, I’ve a lot of ideas to share with you 😂
See you in Newcastle on Saturday ❤️

Wodge! I thought some might wonder what was going on and to give a little introduction to the scruffy white dog on bags!...

Wodge! I thought some might wonder what was going on and to give a little introduction to the scruffy white dog on bags!
Wodge is a rough coated Jack Russel and he’s nearly 16! He came to us at time that really cheered me up and stuck to my side like glue.
We was named by his breeder after the Monty Python “Welease Wodge and Woderick” sketch from the Life of Brian and well, after much debate and the kids arguing over a name, he stayed Wodge. I explain this most days… shouting it over a field isn’t normal really is it?
He’s featured in my stories most days on dog walks and I really wanted to add him to something Mamie and Florrie because, he’s just not getting any younger…he needs carrying on long walks, is going blind and deaf but still he’s there by my side.
He’s much loved and I hope those of you with a project bag love it too, he really is a funny fool! And that is Wodge.
Huge thanks to Julie Nelson Rhodes | NW UK for this fabulous artwork 💛
