Lighter Than My Shadow Cover

The Crystal Mirror Cover

Afternoon snacks. Treasure from #pomfest2017! In the words of @misslavelli, whom I had the pleasure of meeting this weekend, "they followed me home....." I WON those delicious mini skeins from lovely @violaemily, and decided to supplement them with some of her gorgeous mohair lace for a held-double stripetastic something. Probably. 😛 I also bought pure linen from @midwinteryarns for a Greco inspired by @francescabaldry, and hollyhock-dyed Schafwolle from @hey_mama_wolf_yarns whose stand was the hardest for me to choose from, I wanted everything. But the jewel in the crown? Well I received an original artwork by @sophrscott, which won me the magnificent Viola prize, and will take pride of place on my fridge. #definitelynotthemediansheep Reposting from @hdayananda, one of the lucky winners in this weekend's silent auction 🎉 Thanks to your generosity we raised almost £900 for @mybodybackproject! 😮😁 Thanks to everyone who bid, and the winners I know: @hdayananda @brityarn @blackeryarns @johnarbontextiles @ysolda, as well as those I don't. Special thanks also to @francescabaldry and the @pompommag team for making the auction happen. I am unspeakably happy to see these pieces find new homes and give so much money to a cause close to my ❤ xx What a joyful, happy day at Pomfest with @blackeryarns and so many lovely knitting friends. Happy 5th birthday to my most favourite magazine @pompommag - I had so much fun at your party I'm coming back today for more🎈🎈- Thanks to @bombellaella for this cracking photo 😁😁 Are you heading to @pompommag #pomfest2017 this weekend? I'm super excited for it, and one of the reasons is that all the original artwork I've made for the magazine will be on show! We've decided to sell it by silent auction, and 100% of the proceeds will go to the My Body Back Project (google them, they are fab) 😁 Perfect Saturday 😊 Went out for a dog walk. Found a brewery. As you do. #craftbeer #berebrewery #walkies #devon I am really rather proud of my #hanabiracardigan, my first ever #crochet garment. It was also my first project using @blackeryarns #lyonesse linen blend and I love it so much - I definitely want more of it in my wardrobe. And to complete my trio of firsts, I finished in time to enter the @pompommag #pomfestkal. All in all, happy Katie, happy cardigan (also, you know, just happy to be upright again 😉) I came home from Woolfest with some lovely tweed courtesy of @uistwool, some gorgeous yarn courtesy of @laura_s_loom, and a less than lovely concussion, courtesy of my own clumsiness. To everyone I have promised an email, please forgive me, it may take a little time 😟 #woolfest Today we got up super (I mean SUPER) early to have a pre-work dunk at our favourite beach. Definitely worth it! But a note to self: research swimming spots closer to new home. We went for a magical Friday night Dartmoor adventure. So happy to find time for this in the new routine.
