Another very nice 5⭐ review for the beginners crochet class.

Makes my day every time ☺️

A few spaces left in the January class if you want to start a new hobby in 2026

I can change my clock in the car but has anyone worked out how to put the cat back an hour?

Timed our trip well, it's Louth's Food and Drink Festival.

I've been really slack posting the crafting we've been doing in the Residential Care Homes this year.

I'm going to rectify that so I'm working backwards...

It's lovely waking up to another crochet class review. 🧶
And I promise there's no manic laughter when I pull back someone's work. 😁

A sunny day after the rain.
Started with a slight autumnal chill which means it's time to re-start the crochet classes at The Wool Haven

James is annoyed that we won't let him outside in the storm and has spent ALL DAY in his feeding cubbyhole

At the end of my week off and it's flown by.
I'm finishing the post new bathroom cleaning blitz with the Terry Pratchett bookshelf (or shrine as it's generally referred to)

Just listed 10 shining new labradorite pendants - who wants to take home their very own glow?

I need to make rent this week and it's my birthday the week after, so I'm hoping for a little Bluesky magic.

I was aiming to make yoghurt but the milk was "on the turn" and I think I've got cottage cheese.
Tastes like it

A little something for 'Summer Daze'. This is an original abstract artwork of wildflowers, that has a hazy summer feel to it. The original will be looking for a home when the shop reopens.

Water marbling next month in the craft classes so I thought it was about time I had a practice.

The messy ones have less paint, so in this case more is better.

I'd stopped making yoghurt as my milk thermometer had broken.
So I winged it last night and success!
Strained off the whey so obviously had to make scones.

"For science" I baked 2 in the air fryer. Slightly darker but same crumb.
Next to try is freezing unbaked scones so I can bake as required.

Not sure whether to label these as craft or garden... 🧶🌱

I started the delayed annual repotting of my houseplants today.

I knew the pothos needed a new support system so I've macramed 3 hoops together which can hang from the picture rail. It's a little wonky but it looks better than I hoped.

Had a lovely few hours at The Witches Cove Market Glasgow yesterday's.
Some great stalls with old and new favourites.
Time for me to follow some more accounts

You can take the girl from #ScottishCraftHour etc. 😂
