Yarn Graffiti

I couldn’t resist sharing this lovely piece of graffiti spotted at Castle Park, Frodsham. Really made me smile on a rainy day.

I love this. In Amsterdam we saw a lot of this wonderful graffiti on the railings. I guess people use it to identify where they leave their bikes but it prettifies things all the same.

What a fabulous idea Urvashi, I never thought about that – but it makes sense as we saw lots on the railings in Berlin too!

Makes a change to see trees like this from my bedroom window - this is my view from up in the rooftops at @gladstoneslibrary . Very happy to be spending a week here!

The househunting continues...

Just wanted to share some "work stuff" for a change. Since January I've been working with the staff at the Grosvenor Museum in Chester to build community links through their cafe craft group. This month, a new museum display features a blanket made by members of the group. These women have found new friendships, learnt new skills and discovered that knitting and crochet can bring comfort in times of stress and bring joy through making and connecting. I'm so proud of them all for contributing to this perfectly imperfect piece. You can find this on display at the museum now. See if you can spot the knitted treasure map, the crochet butterflies, the bees and the smiling children's faces. I do love the many directions my work takes me. #makingisconnecting #connectingcommunities #socialcapital #knittersofinstagram #sharethecrochetlove #craftivism

Coffee and birthday bookstack! Enjoying a steaming hot mug of @carvetiicoffee in my favourite mug (thanks @whinnyman !)& perusing my birthday books - Mr T only needed a bit of "guidance" - the bee keeping book he chose all by himself - most of the others came from @thenewbookshop. Next we're off to the solicitors to sort out some house selling stuff followed by a lovely lunch. Feeling vey spoilt as always! #booksaremybag #bookstack #booksandcoffee #bookworm #alwaysreading #idlebeekeeper

Back in Cheshire for a couple of days and the corn has been cut. Gawd, I'm going to miss this view! On the upside, Mr T has now agreed we can book to view his old Math's teacher's house & the one where he did unmentionable things at a new years eve party in 1984! So, a move back to Cumbria is imminent! Cross everything for us folks xxxx

In between rain showers I picked the last of the autumn fruiting raspberries. #girlgardener #girswhogarden #mygardentoday #forestgarden #permaculture #organicgardening #organicgardener #ediblegarden #homegrown
