Interesting... as someone who's just done a collaborative community make session with The Ripple Effect. I can wholeheartedly say you're missing something amazing if you've never tried it. I'm certainly going to try booking onto the 'women who make' session.

I've only just joined what I thought was a lovely supportive crochet group & sadly I'm leaving after just a few days!

I'm sorry to say it had too many 'scam' posts... to feel a 'safe-environment'.

These posts are designed to 'harvest' ['farm'] details from group members who connect & comment with a genuine interest in the work displayed on a post, but without realising its a 'stolen'/'cloned' 'scam-post'. The idea behind stealing a post & reposting it under a 'scam-profile' is about grabbing the responders details.

This is occurring in far too many fb groups atm... be careful what you join!

I want to believe group Admin's are trying their level best. And, I'm also aware the 'scammers' probably reappear as fast as they’re removed.

BEWARE ANY PUBLIC GROUP IS A RISK FOR CONTAINING 'SCAM-PROFILES.

A group can add a simple questionnaire to help filter out the 'criminals'.

Leaving a group public & without a questionnaire makes it easy for the 'scammers'... (or... is that the intention all along!?)

Lecture over & good luck, at least you know what to watch out for.

The Wool Lady please message me m'dear... you're in the group I'm talking about x

That was a fun afternoon... meeting lots of lovely creative people at The Ripple Effect in Swanwick.

Thank you to everyone who looked after me & made cups of tea... & the cakes were fabulous!!

We were working on a theme of oceans, & considering the environmental impact of today's lifestyles on how we view it.

But really we had wide ranging natters & enjoyed being productively creative in the company of other women.

The individual pieces will be worked together to create a wearable work of art about oceans.

So many ends... argh!!

But at least when I get stuck-in to the job it becomes quite a zen activity.

I do very occasionally make clothes in crochet for myself. And, I often receive lots of lovely comments whenever I wear one of my garments.

My creations are all made... 'organically'... I don't use patterns, I design as I make. And, this means there can never really be a 'commercial' value I find realistically reflects the hours & weeks of creativity which each unique garment represents. Whenever I've been asked, & have suggested a price I've usually received mutterings about a certain Chinese bulk selling site being a whole lot cheaper. Yep, I totally agree. But we're not comparing like-for-like on this.

The mini granny square 'ribbon' is the beginnings of the lower 'body'... it's a 'bridging' piece from the arm, front & back panels to cover the hips in the creation of a longer cardigan or spring coat. I'll post progress pics as I go but this little lot has taken a couple of weeks so far.

Riddings Vintage, Craft and Yard Sale is TOMORROW!!

I've got all my gorgeous WaylandCraft creations, creatures & critters. There will be my "everything's a Β£5 floofers doofers & widgety-bibs rummage box" that the kids love investigating what alien imaginary & fidget crochet bits are in there now. It's all different coz it depends on what flight of fancy my head is in... you may even find one of my "frogs-in-tutus" in there... because why wouldn't frogs wear tutus!?

Here's some of my fabulous vintage (70's/80's), boho, hippy clothes... & I've even made up full outfits for you! It's all in great condition & will be priced individually (I'm also open to a bit of HONEST haggling!!) Shoes/boots are mainly size 7's & 8's (some more like 7.5's) The Rocket Dog floral boots are worn but still in great condition & a 7(40)

I've also got a 6ft folding table with stretchy black table cover for sale (perfect for craft fairs/yard sales) Β£38 all in & a new table alone is anywhere from Β£36-Β£50... it's only been used 3x!!

** Brand new ** 9ft pregnancy/disability cushion/body bolster... great for supporting hips in bed & helping to make sleeping more comfy... suit anyone under 5'8" ... 100% proceeds from this item will be going to the lighthouse charity so please make me a good offer!!

LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU... this is great event & it really gets the village buzzing with people... come along & support it!!

(& The Greenhill Tavern is having a 60's/70's/80's music night FRIDAY 29th... my vintage clothes will get you dressed the part!!)
