A throwback photo but I have a question for you al A throwback photo but I have a question for you all! 

Next up in my list is restocking my cacti, but just so that I know for when I make more - do you prefer traditional or modern coloured elves?

I tend to class 'traditional' as red, white and green in various combinations...and then 'modern' is everything else.

Let me know in the comments!

Couldn't get any closer, for fear of it eating me (I'm sorry to admit that I'm scared of these beautiful little creatures) πŸ¦‹

I promise I'll share some more crochet soon - I'm weaving in ends 😭

They fascinate me, and I'm lucky enough to have had a few opportunities to handle and fly them, which I'm so grateful for! My favourite will always be Barn Owls though. There is something so hauntingly beautiful about them 🀍

Isn't nature beautiful? My little one is complet Isn't nature beautiful? 

My little one is completely obsessed with collecting seeds from our sycamore tree at the moment. We have to go up to the top of the garden every afternoon to look for new ones 🀣

I had never really looked at them closely before, but they are such a pretty colour! 

✨️ Blanket update - you may have seen in my stories that I'm nearly done! I have one more hexie and one half hexie to stitch in...then it's just a case of tying off all the ends and deciding whether to do a border and add tassels. Can't wait to list it in my shop now - it's been a long time coming!

Happy New Year, crochet gang!I finished this chonk of a blanket that I mentioned in my stories a few weeks ago.

Hey strangers! Long time, no speak. Hopefully this is me back for good now.Where have I been? Well, I sadly decided to pull out of the Christmas Market in Cerne Abbas this Saturday. I was getting too stressed about stock levels, and was dreading it...which should never be the case. I will still be going along to support the other makers but won't be selling. Instead of making Christmas stock for other people, I decided to make Eleanor's advent calendar (which I've been putting off every year to stock my shop). It's felt really good to be selfish for a change!Pattern is from @simplycrochetmag many years ago!#crochetshaz #crochetersofinstagram #crochet #crocheting #crocheted #crochetaddict #crochetlover #crochetinspiration #christmascrochet #crochetadventcalendar #adventcalendar #simplycrochet #scheepjes #scheepjesstonewashed ...
