Fun fact: The curtain was made with a swatch that came with our new curtains. So the fisherman has the same curtains as us!
This is Francis, they sneak into this fisherman's room every night, just to stare damply at him...
Such a fun diorama to make and thanks @soupbubbles.bsky.social for sewing the curtains for me ❤️

We're at the Athletics in London and engaging in the annual tradition of watching medals be award years after the fact because of cheating. Today was the men's 4x100 from 1997!!!!!!

It's 2 days before I leave for a re-enactment weekend. The perfect time to start a new project!
Crazy, but if I can pull this off it means I'll be braving the 30 degree heat in linen instead of wool!

My 17th century stays are nearly done! I have learnt so much making this, and I'm pretty happy with how it's come out!

I love this cat toy I bodged together! My cat loves playing with my wool or thread when I'm working, so I crocheted her own spool of yarn! It's just a chain stitch, wrapped around the bobbin with some slip stitches to keep it from unravelling, and a tail left loose to chase!

I'm working on a pair of 17th Century stays. Last night I finished sewing the boning channels, next step is to fill them! I can't imagine doing all of this without a machine

Apologies for getting in touch with you this way, but I can't dm you!
I really like your Reenactment/LH feed, but it only seems to go back a day or two. Is this just how feeds work? Or would you be able to make it go longer? I'd love to be able to browse it more!

This is my favourite thing that I've knitted! A cowl I knitted in the round over December, with a new motif for each day. I learnt so much making this and it's gorgeous!

While technically true, seeing Shakespeare's Henry V in the "Inspired by true stories" category on BBC iplayer feels a bit off!

I never wanted to post about politics here. I wanted a place where I could just engage with things that make me happy. But things are dire here in the UK, and if a few more people are aware and sign the petition I'll consider it worth it.

I swore I would never calorie count again, and yet I am today to make sure I eat enough!
I'm sick and lost my sense of taste and my appetite and I've barely eaten anything in the past 5 days. It's crazy how quickly my attitude to food changed once I lost my sense of taste

Before I switch brain back to 1535/6, here is my report on 1461 total immersion reenactment for everyone wondering how we got on.
Firstly, we had absolutely horrible weather: storms, heavy rain, below zero temperatures, hardly any sun. This was BRILLIANT as it meant it was a proper test…

#ThrowbackThursday to the first time I followed a knitting pattern! This project was the free gift in a knitting magazine at the end of 2023. I finally learnt the purl stitch and some colourwork! There are mistakes in there that make me laugh, and I still don't know how I managed some! 😂
