⭐SECRET CROCHET WORKSHOP! ⭐
Today I've been to the @melksham_town_council hall hosting a secret crochet workshop for my CABIN CREW CROCHET COMMUNITY!

There were 35 ladies crocheting away on a secret project, and more members joined remotely via a Facebook LIVE event and were crocheting away across the country (and beyond!)

We've had tea, coffee, hot chocolate and cake on tap...it sounds too good to be true doesn't it?!

Keep your eyes peeled to find out what we were making! 👀

✨ Update on my mosaic crochet blanket! ✨ This

✨ Update on my mosaic crochet blanket! ✨ This year, my new year's resolution is to crochet more for myself so I treated myself to a pattern from @getyerhookon . If you know me well then you'll know that I LOVE birds so it was a no brainer when I saw this pattern 🧡

It's slow progress as I've opted to make a SUPER KING sized blanket but I'm loving how this masterpiece is coming together - every row feels like a small victory 🤩 I can't wait to wrap myself in its warmth and creativity when it's finished....even if that is next winter!

Mosaic Crochet is TOTALLY ADDICTIVE and it's definitely catching as all my workshops for it are full....but luckily I have just added some extra dates 📆

Link in the bio to see all the workshop dates ☝

Have you made something beautiful with your own fa

Have you made something beautiful with your own fair hands and don't want to use boring old gift tags when you give it to someone you love? Or perhaps you'd simply like to stamp your crochet love all over the place?!

These attractive stamps are designed by © @skullandcrossbuns and are beautifully reproduced out of artisan quality rubber. They are trimmed by hand and mounted onto tactile wooden blocks and, even better, they are UK sourced.

You have some lovely options here - which ones will you choose?!

Are you tired of boring old earrings that look jus

Are you tired of boring old earrings that look just like everyone else's? Well, have I got a treat in store for you! Why not pick up a pair of my gorgeous new earrings for crochet lovers? You'll be the talk of the town! The envy of your crochet-loving pals!

Perhaps it is time for you to adorn your ears with these fun and chunky earrings. They are impressively and intricately etched into sustainably sourced maple plywood with stainless steel, hypoallergenic posts and backs in fun, crochet themes. All designs are © @skullandcrossbuns!

Each bold statement earring is 4mm in depth and lightweight.
Hook and yarn earrings measure approx 15mm
Skeins of yarn earrings measure 20mm x 10mm

What are you waiting for?) Will you go for a matching pair...or jauntily style out an odd match?! Or you could buy the whole selection and mix 'n' match according to your crochet mood! Earrings come on card and in a white organza bag, so they're perfectly packaged to give as a gift (or a treat just for you!)

NEW! Pin Badges for Crocheters! So: you've got all

NEW! Pin Badges for Crocheters! So: you've got all the kit and you're happily crocheting the day away. But something's missing, isn't it?! Yes, my stylish Pin Badges, so you can share your love of crochet with the world!

Picture this: your ball bag is fit to bursting with gorgeous yarn, but it looks a little tired from the outside. Why not jazz it up with one of my badges?! You could even think bigger and take these to your handbag...cover it with my 7 different designs and let your crochet flag fly!

These badges are designed by the awesome Victoria from @isleofdesign and lovingly handmade by me. Each one features a different one of my favourite crochet slogans and make a great gift for your favourite crocheter (unless you decide you want them all for yourself!).

What are you waiting for?! Treat yourself to a gorgeous, cheeky badge...and maybe even collect them all.

CROCHET IS EASY, RIGHT?! As you'll know if you know me well, I'm not one for gossip (don't give me that look!), but I feel duty bound to tell you all about this vicious rumour going around that crochet is....whisper it....easy. 🤫

I know, I know...if you're reading this you probably already know that it is a laughable rumour with no base in reality. But some people really do believe it! And in the spirit of honesty and crochet love, I'm here to put this myth to bed once and for all.

So what are the dirty details of this gossip, I hear you cry? Well, for one, some say it is a lot easier than knitting....🫣 Find out more by reading my latest BLOG post....link up in the bio ☝️

🐊✨ Just when you thought the spring chill was snapping at your heels, I've whipped up something to keep me cosy and stylish! It's the fiercest scarf in town, featuring the jaw-dropping crocodile stitch! 🧣💚

These scales aren't just for show; they're a testament to the patience and skill it took to craft this beauty - it's not an easy stitch but once you get the hang of it, you take to it like a croc to water 😂

If you fancy embracing your inner crocodile and facing this stitch with a whole lot of bite, then keep an eye on my workshop timetable as this one is a frequent occurrence!🐊💫

Crocheted using many skeins of hand dyed yarn from @vixterwoolista 😍

🙌 CROCHET WORKSHOPS! 😍 I've been super busy

🙌 CROCHET WORKSHOPS! 😍 I've been super busy behind the scenes adding LOADS of crochet workshops for YOU and you've been super busy booking on them! 🧡

There's a few new ones on the list at the moment....Mosaic Workshop (so blooming addictive), Bobble Stitch (the possibilities of what you can create with this stitch are endless) and a SECRET CROCHET WORKSHOP for my crochet community - but my lips are sealed on that one!

Relaxed and friendly and all in the comfort of my beautiful Crochet Cabin, Secret Crocheter workshops comfortably accommodate between 2-6 people (so they’re a great chance to meet new people and talk about crochet, as well as to make something new and woolly!).

The Crochet Cabin is a joy to behold (I know, I’m biased, but ask the others – they flipping love it too). Set in my little Wiltshire garden, the cabin sits among trees and shrubs and we are frequently surrounded by singing birds. It’s glorious throughout the seasons. And it’s not bad inside, too; you’ll be inspired by the makes and colours of the cabin as well as the famous wall of wool. Not a bad place to spend a few hours, if I do say so myself.

If you fancy having a closer look at what's on in The Crochet Cabin over the next few months, I've popped a link up there for you ☝
