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.

Brown Stripes with a Big Fluffy Pom-Poms

I'm back again this morning to share, you've guessed it, another colour changing jumper.  I apologise for all of the knitting posts at the moment but I did warn you that last summer I had spent a lot of my time knitting.

This is another of those glorious King Cole Cherish Double Knit yarns, made up in a Stylecraft pattern - number 4910.

I had some of the yarn left over so I made him a bobble hat to go with his jumper.  The pattern is another one of my anonymous Ebay purchases.

I hope you are having a really good day.  Thank you for stopping by.

    1. This little boy is growig so fast at the moment, it is not going to be long before I make all of these jumpers again for him .... I'll try to get some different coloured wool though - don't want you thinking I had posted the same jumper, ha ha!

      Have a great week.

    1. Thank you, I can see that I am converting you to this yarn as well. There are still some colours I have not used yet .... so watch this space once my Christmas cards are finished.
