My friend works as a breast care nurse, so her new bag has hidden meaning in the lining fabric.

Bought this cork fabric a couple of years ago, but never had the nerve to try it before. Was surprisingly easy to sew

Tidy table

Hubby drives me mad constantly loosing his wallet, mask, keys etc. He also leaves his various pairs of glasses on the table, then gets surprised when things get put on top of them by mistake. Finally got round to stitching a solution – the hvan pockets

Sadly managed to break my favourite sewing machine in the process. Luckily the local repair man is still doing collections in lockdown and sorted me out

Sisters scarf

Working on a scarf design for a friend to give to her sister. Not my usual colours but loving this mix of shades. Water and wave patterns are fun.

First attempt at a cream egg cosy person. Not quite got the face right but fits the eggs well. Family of these to follow

Entwife gloves

I got the Entwife pattern from Ravelry and love it. Made 3 pairs so far. Did extra long finger and thumb sections for me and my sister to keep our long thin hands toasty

Entwife gloves

Really enjoyed knitting the entwife gloves from a pattern on Ravelry. Now making more as gifts
