Last year, the blackbirds were chased away from our apple tree by magpies.
This year? I’m watching every day to find out.
I actually have the best job.
I don't mind a bit of wild weather, and Jack bears it well though it's not his favourite. But I also don't mind getting back indoors, under a blanket, pouring a seasonal tipple and snuggling up with my knitting for the long dark evening.
Packing orders is even more fun with new rubber stamps to play with!

Dartmoor has been cold, wet and windy lately. Come inside, grab a cuppa and lets chat about what I've been working on...

The Green Bean Podcast Episode 9 is now live on YouTube
Jack and I are working on a new podcast episode. One is working harder than the other.

Because I won't have time to cast one on, I drew some fan art of my friend Rachel's @rachbrocknits gorgeous new design, the Lunaberry Jumper, which is coming this week ❤🎁. (Disclaimer: Rachel's design is for small humans, and does not come with an eight-armed option at present)

Secret Knitting task 1 accomplished!

There aren't many patterns I have knitted twice, but these beautiful #underwingmitts by @eheusserdesigns are certainly worthy. This version is for my friend @_marshwiggle - Happy Birthday! 🎁🎈🎉
Magical light on Dartmoor this evening!

Jack and I would like to thank EVERYONE who left such sweet comments on our last post. We are overwhelmed, and it may take me a few days to catch up and respond. However, I did draw a winner at random, and that winner is........@kammebornia! 🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations! I'll be in touch very shortly.
.
Don't worry if you didn't win, the design will be available for everyone as a free postcard with any order from my Etsy shop, which I am so looking forward to restocking in the months ahead.
I'm in London this weekend staying with my dear Mum and Dad. The trees lining their street are spectacular, and I have teenage memories of trying to roller skate through these leave to deliver newspapers, when they used to call me Skatie Katie 🍂
If you've watched the latest episode of The Green Bean Podcast, you might have spotted this new title card I drew. I used scratch board, one of my all time favourite drawing mediums.
✏✏✏
I plan to have the design made into postcards to go out with orders and pass out to nice people when I get out and about out of the shire. But I thought I might give the original away. If you'd like to win it, just leave a comment below for me or Jack (though easy on the compliments or that little dog is going to get a big head!).
I'll draw a winner at random next Monday, 19th November!
Dartmoor at its spooky best this morning.
Good morning! Who fancies a walk in the woods with Jack and I, then a natter about drawing, knitting and sewing?

These panels are just gorgeous, Katie. Love the movements in and out. Time passing. I can see it turning into a longer series …
<3 Gorgeous work – Love those branches.
