Last month we had a little trip to Coniston to see Donald Campbell's Bluebird K7 return to the lake for the first time since its fatal crash in 1967 💔

The Lake District is also the home of Herdwick sheep ... Everyone's favourite smiley sheep 🐑🥰

I felted lots of little Herdwicks while surrounded by them in the fields 🤩 ... It's a good job I don't go anywhere without my felting needles as it was a long waiting game and we never actually got to see Bluebird that day. But Chris did go back and see her run later in the week 🙌🏼💙

What a historical occasion in one of the most beautiful parts of the world! I highly recommend a visit to Coniston if you've not already been. A much quieter and absolutely stunning part of the Lakes. 

My next Felted Sheep workshop is coming up on Wednesday 8th July at 6:30-9pm so come and join me to make your own 🐑🤎

Peg Loom Weaving is a perfect craft for kids and I can adapt workshops to suit different session length, ages and abilities 🙌🏼

A big thank you to Waterhead Brownies and Guides for having me in recently for a workshop. Both groups did really well and went home happy with their little wall hangings and their Craft badge 🥰🙌🏼

It was so nice to hear from one of the Brownies parents on how much she enjoyed it too, and it was lovely hearing her explain the process to them 🤩

If you'd like to find out more just get in touch 😊

What a week! An absolute scorcher! Very lucky to have timed this with a holiday at the seaside with my family ... Happy days 🥰 🌊🦀🐚⛱️

The Llyn Peninsula in Wales is an absolutely beautiful part of the world. We still go back to the campsite we went to as kids, and it's so nice to spend quality time with family while switching off from the world a little bit.

I have been felting while I'm here of course (it never stops!), and have a crafty little helper Del who has been commissioning me for various projects including a sheep and a cat 😺 Both with handlebar moustaches and six packs! That's what you get when you accept commissions from 5 year olds 🤣 I'm here for it!

Oh, and there was a snake on the beach! Another first for me 🐍😅

I hope everyone's keeping cool while enjoying the sunshine! I'll be back to any orders etc from Monday.

Ooohhhh what's this .... 👀👀

Let me tell you! It's my Norfolk Blaze yarn featured in a Yarn Review in along with the likes of Baa Ram Ewe, King Cole and Lang Yarns. Eeeeeekkk 🤩

A huge thanks to Knitting Magazine for featuring this fully traceable, small batch aran yarn - a blend of Norfolk Horn and Zwartbles 🐑🐑

"The 'zwart' part of Zwartbles means 'black' and by blending these sheets dark fleeces with the white fibres from the Norfolk Horn flock, The Peg Loomer has come up with a classic grey undyed yarn with a slightly marled 😂 I close up.

Knitted up this wool has a robust, natural feel that would be ideal for outer garments you want to last. It's strong stitch definition would work well in cables and textured patterns."

📍Norfolk Horn from Leeds
📍Zwartbles from Upper Lane Farm, Northowram, Halifax
📍Woollen spun at Bridlington
📍Part of

🇬🇧 True British wool, from Yorkshire sheep! 🇬🇧

Free patterns for hats (including the ribbed beanie I'm wearing) and more are available. The Twisted Rib Jumper I'm wearing is by and was featured in a previous edition of Knitting Magazine 🙌🏼

And day of 2 of my woolly weekend was at the amazing in Leeds for their Threads Textiles Festival, and more needle felting magic turning fluff into Toadstools 🍄🐑❤️

A lovely group of enthusiastic crafters plus Charles who came along with his wife Norma and hadn't done any crafting before, yet was an absolute natural 🤩🙌🏼

Brilliant work and several needle felting converts ... A success!

I then got to explore the brilliant exhibition and browse the Textile Fair packed full of an amazing range of makers and designers. A stop at for natural dyeing supplies then it was back on the road for more woolly adventures! 👀
