HAPPY INTERNATIONAL CROCHET DAY! 🧶

As I have no new HOTH’s or insta worthy WIP’s at the moment, here’s a throwback to a blanket I made for the ‘Crochet for peace CAL’, which was quickly stolen by Nebu. Good job she’s cute. 🥰 🧡 ✌️

Today, September 10th, marks World Su***de Prevention Day. Every 90 minutes, someone in the UK or Ireland dies by su***de and 1 in 4 of us has had suicidal thoughts. A Samaritans survey found 14% said their suicidal thoughts had been interrupted by a stranger or someone they didn’t know.

I came across the Peyton Heart Project, who are on a mission of kindness, inspiring people to leave hearts with PHP tags in public places for people to find. They hope the hearts cause people to stop for a moment and reflect on a life lost to su***de, on bullying and on the fact that everyone’s life matters. I’ve crocheted up a bunch to scatter and post to friends to do the same. 🧡

Changing the narrative on su***de requires systemic change. It’s about shifting from a culture of silence and stigma to one of openness, understanding, and support. ***dePreventionDay ***depreventionday crochet

Happy Wednesday! Happy Halloween Eve! Happy Pay Day Eve! Aaand here’s the other side of the rainbow meets monochrome cardigan to celebrate! I hope you’re all having cosy evenings! My body clock hasn’t adjusted to the new time as yet, so I’ll no doubt be asleep shortly and up at 5am. 🙈 Anybody else the same?

HAPPY FRIDAY! Thought I’d drop by to show off my first finished crochet project of the year so far! 🙈 A rainbow mushroom bucket hat by . It’s already with its new owner, and has been living its best life travelling the UK. What do you have planned this weekend? I’ll be cheering England on around a productive one! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

That’s my squares finished and ready for blocking! 🤩 Pleased the crojo is hanging around long enough to hopefully get a make finished. 😂 Though I have missed rainbow creations. 🌈 I’m working on the Mushroom Bucket Hat pattern by , what’s on your hook?

HAPPY FRIDAY! Pleased to report my crojo definitely seems to be back. Potentially too much. Haven’t finished my Taylor dress, but I’m true ‘old me’ style, I’ve started another WIP. 😂 At least I have seen my ends as I go so far though… 😅 I hope everyone has fun weekends planned!

I saw it, I loved it, I had to make it! 🤩 Has Taylor Swift’s crochet dress won me my crojo back? I’ve made it too long, so will likely not wear it anyway, it’s in acrylic DK so it’s gonna be heavy - but I’m going to continue plodding on and hopefully it’ll inspire me to not put my hook back down for months again once it’s done! Is anybody else hooking one up? What colours did you choose? I couldn’t resist these bright coral & lilac shades from ! 😍 Happy Friday everyone!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVE, from my family to yours! Some of this years presents have ‘guess the recipient’ gift tags on them! I of course felt left out, so made some for my cat and I too. 😅 I hope everyone has a wonderful day tomorrow, however and whoever you’re sharing it with. ☺️
