Find crochet news in my Instagram stories

Well, what a week! Thankyou so much to everyone who has bought the new edition of "Crochet: Learn It, Love It". I'm so grateful to you all. Please keep tagging me in photos of your makes. It's lovely to see your photos. And there's more! On 15th Jan "200 More Crochet Stitches" will be available too (I'll share news of the US edition soon). I'm still pinching myself that the little girl who first held a hook 50 years ago, now writes about things she loves and gets paid for it! Anyone who wants info about review copies, interviews or give aways DM me. Thankyou again all you lovely hookers! #crochetlearnitloveit #grannycoolcrochet #uncinetto #crocheting #crochetgirlgang #crochetconcupiscence #lovecrochet #instacrochet #haaktechniekenbijbel
Hi everyone. I have new non crochet Instagram home. Crochet & yarn posts will stay here, but photos of everything else will now be on my @bakingandmaking page. It would be great if you popped over and hit the "follow" button (& unfollow this if crochet's not your thing - I won't be offended!) #girlgardener #bakingandmaking #slowlived #slowliving #makingwinter #winterstories #permaculture #forestgarden #organicgarden
On 2nd February, I'll be hosting an intermediate crochet workshop at @ditzyrosemakes . We'll be learning to follow a pattern, increase and decrease while crocheting a heart. You'll also be able to buy a kit to make more - because once you see how quick and easy they are, everyone will be your valentine! The original pattern appeared in @insidecrochet
Happy new year everyone! And, I'm thrilled to say, the new UK edition of my last book is now available - everything you ever wanted to know about crochet, but were afraid to ask!!! Inside you'll find plenty of inspiration, ideas and advice - including the pattern for this gorgeous blanket by @woolnhook and the always popular Finnley Fox designed by @allaboutami and cute purses by @crejjtion Available now from @searchpress or your favourite local bookshop! #uncinetto #haaktechniekenbijbel #learntocrochet #crochetmotifs #grannysquarelove #crochetmakesmehappy #amigurumi
The best post of the year is always seed catalogues! Making lists of what grew well (leeks and kale), what failed (potatoes - blight!) and what I would love to plant next year ( as always the wish list exceeds the seed budget!!!). I don't make resolutions, but I have promised myself that 2019 will be filled with laughter, friendship and gardening every day! I hope your plans for 2019 include time for things that make you happy! Thankyou to @andreaellisonphoto for this picture of me xx #girlgardener #permaculture #growyourownfood #bakingandmaking #mygarden #organicgarden #gardeningisgoodforthesoul #slowlived #slowliving #makingwinter
A midwinter posy. In January, I promised myself that every day I would pick a garden posy. This, picked on 27th December is my favourite. In this quiet time between Christmas and New Year I like to potter in the kitchen and the garden. For the first time in years I didn't cast on a jumper on boxing day, in fact I have hardly picked up my needles or a hook. I have played (& lost) board games, read books, walked aimlessly, baked, weeded, plucked spindly leeks and lush kale from the veg patch; fried up left overs for tea, baked cakes, spent hours watching the birds and it has been a lovely, lovely few days! I just hope the peace and calm lasts into next year! #girlgardener #permaculture #cuttinggarden #thequietwinter #myseasonalstory #slowlived #slowliving #makingwinter #curatednature #theslowdowncollective #bakingandmaking #merrymidwinter #onmytable #countrygirl #foraging
I wish you all a very merry Christmas. I shall be offline now until 28th December. Peace and love to you all xxx
Thankyou @florahoneypot for my gorgeous new beanie, complete with fabulous pom pom. I always love hand made gifts xxx #crochet #uncinetto #snailmail #knittersofinstagram #makeitwearit #handmadewardrobe
I always loved the story of the Princess and the Pea! This is another photo of the gloriously decorated Chatsworth House last week.
