Those of you who have known me for a while, know that while I like fitness (and not just fitn’this pizza in my mouth :-P ) I am all for weight training and zero about cardio. Generally the only time I run is away from zombies or after the ice cream truck.

made up this little pattern initially in 2020 to accompany our first Stitchcraft & Wizardry Adent Calendar Swap.

I wrote this pattern specifically for our 1st Stitchcraft & Wizardry Secret Second Sock Syndrome Swap ( #1stSSSSS).

My inspiration for this pattern was our Stitchcraft & Wizardry colourway “Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans”. I wanted to knit up a sample of this colourway and turn it into a cowl, and it wouldn’t be me, if I didn’t come up with a special fun design for it. :-)

Coming up to Christmas, I really needed some snow in the house (which we don’t get to see here in stinking hot Australia) and this is how this blanket was born.

These Face Washers and Make-Up Pads are created using the Jasmin Stitch, which is a series of puff stitches aligned to form a floral pattern. This stitch is very thick, creating a very soft and fluffy texture, which is ideal for items that are used on your skin. Due to the thick nature of the stitch, it does use quite a lot of yarn however, so ...

These dishcloths are created using the waffle stitch, which is one of my favourite stitches to use when I want a rough texture, which is definitely something you want when trying to scrub your lovely munchkin’s 7 day old plate that had been hiding under their bed in their room.
