nurtured necessity

It is cold! Winter appears to be LONG this year. And COLD! When I recently started updating my BLANKETS and WEARABLES pages, I noticed a trend in the photos I took of my crochet creations. I have not been able to blog regularly because of other commitments. That is okay. I have various things pulling on my time and consciousness, mostly for educational and personal development reasons. It's all good. I am still able to crochet, please do not worry. Just that I am doing it less frequently, because my mind is otherwise engaged. And so are my hands - typing mostly... So when I crochet, at the moment, I make easy things…

As it turns out, I have another blog post in me for this year.  Another final one, before the year 2022 is finished, and before I leave you all, my lovely readers, to your own devices, and to perhaps catch up on my many a blog posts that you may have missed over the last 4 years.  Oh my, I have just had to check, and I have been writing my regular, monthly blog posts since 2019.  Whilst we are getting sentimental, please indulge me.  I have been writing my blog posts since 2014, which means that 8 years have passed since I started writing blog posts about my crochet endeavours. I have…

Birthdays, anniversaries, you name it, it happens in our family to some member or other, closest or a bit further apart, we have a lot on in February. This post is about a celebratory blanket for a different event. One that happens only once, usually. Earlier in the year, i was super busy feasting my eyes on rainbow yarn, i got a lovely lot of wool from my sister. There was a lot of red and white and some turquoisey coloured yarn. I was not sure what i was going to use it for yet, but i liked…

Today, for the new year, i am presenting my oldest video work EVER! And whyever not... Happy New Year everyone! Hopefully you have made it through 2021 with whatever you needed most. Something happened early last year, and as the consequence of that, this appeared to me: I have not ever uploaded the video compilations from my Visual Art Degree show anywhere at all online! I know, it happened a very very VERY looooong time ago, but still.... Onto my YouTube channel they consequently went as the result of this realisation! Check my Youtube channel HERE! https://youtu.be/07vswWMLGb8 Case of video disappearance I feel very fortunate to be able to show you these videos.…

yesterday’s yearnings – yearly yonder The weather in the UK has not been following last year's anomalous hotness... Am i surprised? Not really. But, when i started thinking about this post a little while ago, it was looking promising, with few days here and there bringing us temperatures warranting light jackets, if any outerwear at all... I nearly put my woolly wonders away, before i realised how perfect they are for this exact time in the year.... Crochet blankets are exactly the perfect spring/ summer outdoorsy attire – for evenings especially in the UK.  Whether you are sitting outside after a barbeque of an evening, in your garden, or gathered by a campfire,…
