I have fond memories of watching David Bellamy on various TV shows when I was a child, sharing his love of the natural world and everything botanical.

A friend at work has been teaching herself to knit and recently learned how to purl. She asked if I had a pattern for something that she could practise with and after a little discussion we agreed on a coaster.

Comfort & Joy is a fairisle style beanie in two adult sizes, regular and large.

My Love Heart Beanie features simple repeating bands of hearts, each band worked in a different colour.

Way back during the first lockdown in the UK in 2020, I designed my first fairisle hat, named Hope Springs.

The Bellamy Cowl is a warm and snug, fully lined fairisle cowl - it has a botanical theme, designed to compliment the Bellamy Hat.

My favourite flower is the common-or-garden daisy - or anything that resembles a daisy! - and I’ve wanted to design a hat featuring them for a while now.

I have fond memories of watching David Bellamy on various TV shows when I was a child, sharing his love of the natural world and everything botanical. I was saddened to hear of his death and this is my small tribute to him.

Buy the hat and the matching Boanny Starns Cowl and get 30% off the second pattern - add both to your cart. Previous purchases will also apply but the pattern needs to be in your Ravelry library.

The initial design for Finding Balanced began while the UK was under full lockdown due to Covid-19.

My New Year’s resolution for 2020 was to teach myself fairisle knitting and after making several hat designs from other people, I wanted to try and design my own and this is the result.

Looks Like Rain is a light scarf for those cooler spring and autumn days - not too heavy or warm but just enough to keep off the chill.

Texan Muffler is a unisex reversible sampler style scarf, featuring different textured patterns along it’s length. They are all simple patterns using just basic knit and purl stitches and would suit an adventurous beginner - the different textures help it fly off your needles really quickly!

Popcorn Dreams is a one skein wonder scarf. It is a long, narrow crescent shaped scarf/neck wrap, beginning and ending in a point. The delicate texture made with eyelets and popcorns, makes it ideal for spring and autumn.
