We are in strange times. Many of us feel scared and anxious and unsure what the future holds. Helping to combat loneliness & boredom One of our biggest issues is loneliness. To try and combat this a little, we have re-visited two of our most popular patterns and we'd love you to make these with us and share the experience on our Facebook Make Along group. It's a lovely community of supportive and helpful crafters. A new ’Spice of Life’ crochet Make Along will started in late March and a knitted Chevron Blanket Make Along too (they've kept me very busy). Both patterns are free to download now and there's lots more information in the video above. We have created two packs in bright and cheerful colours that can be used for these or any projects. We hadn't originally intended to do this but you asked us and we listened. We've included links to our other packs below and we are open for online business and dispatching orders. Please check our Facebook page though for updates. Crochet - Spice of Life Pattern download Knitted - Chevron Pattern download I've now completed these projects and have started two more impromptu make alongs, both scarves: Zickzack knitted scarf - Pattern download (packs can be purchased below if you wish) Grannies Paperweight crocheted scarf - Pattern download (there is no pack for this but we suggest a 4ply yarn such as Scheepjes Metropolis)
