I have always loved treating myself to a bit of hand dyed yarn, in fact throughout 2019 I purchased more hand dyed yarn than I ever have before but that’s something I will talk about in another blog post. In this post I want to talk about mini skeins and how we can use them. Specifically how I used the 24 x 10g minis I recieved as part of a yarn advent calendar.

I recently had the pleasure of receiving a new crochet book packed full of gorgeous projects. ‘Delicious Crochet Shawls’ is written by Lisa Cook who is a fabulous designer based in the UK. I have followed Lisa on Instagram for a few years now and watched her style and designs evolve, I am so pleased that she has been brave enough to release a book – its beautifully written and I’m sure will be a big hit!

The possibilities with crochet are endless. I have always thought that if you can imagine it you can probably crochet it! That’s exactly what Pony McTate has achieved with her new book ‘Crochet A-B-Sea’ which I have had the pleasure of reading and help in the testing process.

A few months ago I jumped on the bandwagon and bought myself a couple of Caron Cakes from my local Hobbycraft – they were on offer, that was my excuse! There was a really great selection of colourways available but I settled on this one – Funfetti, with shades of purple, pink and warm orange in between I was really happy.
