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.

Knickerbocker Glories

A couple of weeks ago I shared with you the knickers I had knitted for my niece's baby dolls, these knickerbockers are for slightly smaller dolls

They are made in 3 ply, my goodness, you would not believe how far this 3 ply yarn goes.  I was beginning to believe it would never run out.

Have a great week.

  1. These are so pretty with the lovely ribbons topping them off (or should that be bottoming them off?!!) so beautifully. The back righthand pair look like they could even be in West Ham colours. Xxxx

    1. Haha, can you imagine going to the match wearing claret and blue bloomers, even if they did have ribbons!

    1. Thank you Carol, they are a little sentimental - even a little Ena Sharples and Minnie Caldwell. Minus the ribbons of course!
