Welcome


Hello, my name is Dionne and I have been crafting for a very long time. As a very young child my mother tried to teach me to knit, it was a disaster. However, it must have sparked an interest in making things and, partly to prove that I was not totally useless and partly because I really wanted to make things, I taught myself to crochet. Over the years I have developed a love of cross stitch and all types of paper craft ..... I eventually even taught myself to knit.


I am married to a very understanding man, thank goodness, because I spend all my time either crafting, thinking about crafting or talking about crafting. I am hopeless at housework and dinner is often late!


Thank you for visiting my blog.

In the Pink!

Christmas Eve a last, time for any last minute panic and then it is all out of your hands for two days, you either have it or your are going to have to go without it.

My little model elf is in the party mood today and is loving this knitted pink outfit, with fisherman's style jumper and matchig skirt, hat and bag.




These lovely knitting patterns are by Helen Cox and are available from Ravelry.

Daisy the elf has been looking for snow ....



But it looks like she got herself trapped!

    1. Happy Boxing Day my friend.

      That jumper is the closest I can get to knitting an Aron jumper, haha. As you can imagine, it looks great in cream as well.

    1. No, it was flour. I hate to think how difficult it was to get off Daisy. it must have got everywhere - not to mention having to buy more flour!
