Doing my best.
Sometimes my best is having a nap.
We’ve got a lot of happy bumble bees in the garden so I’m guessing they’ll have a nest close by 🥰🐝🌱

It’s amazing what a few mismatched slabs, bags of gravel and a couple of packets of thyme and chamomile can do on our heavy clay soil ☺️ and the bees are very happy too 🐝 🌱

When I first planted creeping thyme in the pathway my husbands strawberries were in pots next to the path. We now have strawberries in the path 😁

Kiddo has asked me to knit a sheep for him so I’m using this pattern ☺️🐑. Its lovely to knit but I’m not convinced it’s going to hold the stuffing. The texture is amazing though.

Gardening / insect loving people, any idea what this larvae is I’ve just tipped out of an old compost bag? Can i leave them in my veg beds or find them a happier home? Its about an inch long and in Greater London x 🌱🪲 🐞🐜

I bought this Tofu Eating Wokerati tshirt from @balconyshirts.co.uk a couple of years ago never thinking it would feel more like a radical statement under this government than the last.

I’m sorry that is horrible, here’s a happy pic of our Cleo she’s no longer with us but she did love tennis balls

I saw this little fella go past on the canal this morning 😊🦆
I’ve not seen one like it before and the internet seems to think it’s an Egyptian goose?

And its done 💎 its been a fiddly pain in the bum to do, but I’m looking forward to see what kiddo thinks in the morning 😊

I don’t think Feathers McGraw will be stealing this one 😆

Work in progress. This has been fiddly and annoying but kiddo is very excited to get his blue diamond. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky

A little emotional support chickie ❤️🐥

Looking through my great-grandmother’s knitting book with my mum and I really want to make this jumper 🧶😊 (I need lots of practice first and to translate the needle sizes)
January 29, 2025 at 5:21 PM
I can’t believe I managed to follow the pattern and knit my very own Emotional Support Chicken 😊🧶

Now she just needs a name…

Hey knitting lovelies 🧶, kiddo has asked me to knit the blue diamond from Wallace and Gromit. I’ve had a look on Ravelry but can’t find a knitting pattern for a 3D diamond (my crochet skills are not good) does anyone have any suggestions?

Go to where you search for feeds and search in the ‘Discover new feeds’ box 😊 I follow the top one

I’ve found you 😆

One pair of fingerless gloves all finished. The first thing I’ve ever knitted for myself and I’m really chuffed with them. 🧶

Now to make a hat to match 😁
January 4, 2025 at 1:20 PM
Knitters help please 🧶 I’m sewing up some handwarmers I’ve made with mattress stitch along the seam and I’ve found a hole 😫 what’s the best thing to do?
January 3, 2025 at 8:13 PM
Knitting advice please! I’m going to make some fingerless gloves for the first time and the pattern asks for 4mm needles and 50g of DK. I have this yarn that has the same knitted up 10cm size as the pattern but on 3mm needles - can I use it or am I asking for trouble? 🧶

I finally finished knitting a dog coat for my old girl. It’s all rectangles sewn together as I’m still not confident to try a pattern. Its a generous size so it’s easy on and off for her 😊 🧶

Some impromptu art this morning with @dobbersville.bsky.social with inks from the Diamine invent calendar 💜 sending love out to the world

Hot off the needles is week 4 of Ren’s #knittingsquare challenge with ribbing 🧶 its more rectangular than square so I may need to have another go if I can’t work it into its final blanket form 🙈😁

Here’s the new and improved stockinette now with no twisted stitches 😆🧶

Now on to week 4 of Ren’s #knittingsquare challenge
