I moved to the other side of Cubist Town over the summer and I’ve only just got my crafting shit sorted … here are a couple of recent projects:

Blimey, it’s been a long time hasn’t it. I won’t dwell on it, best to just get blogging.

I did some green creating this week when I spent a long lunch break volunteering at Thornhill Bridge Community Garden. Actually, it wasn’t so much creating as destroying, but I guess we were creating a lovely place for people to walk and enjoy the surrounding area.

It was strangely therapeutic; sweeping up leaves, cutting down dead ivy, clearing rubbish… I’m looking forward to our next foray.

I never thought I’d be making a dishcloth, but I did, and it doesn’t look too bad. It’s made from the Dragonfly Washcloth pattern on Ravelry.

My first post from my new phone is to show you the sock I’m knitting to keep it warm. Knitted in Colinette Jitterbug.
