Thank you! I've been binge watching movies for the plain part...

I use "sticky" 100% fingering wool (not superwash), small needles and catch my floats every 3-5 stitches, making sure to stretch out the stitches so there's no puckering. When I'm finished, I'm block it - and with this yarn it will bloom, soften and any uneven stitches will disappear. You can do it!

Not really.... I started designing it for Halloween last year, but I left it too late and realised I wouldn't get anywhere near finished. So I abandoned it ... and then I rediscovered my half-done charts and the yarn I'd bought last week....

Yes it is! I'll release it once I've finished it.

Thank you! My family are always excited when I've finished a new one and they can find out what I've hidden on the back. 😂

It will be a cushion. I'm making a set... I already made three of them. The patterns are on Ravelry.

I do have tunnel vision when it comes to knitting 😅... I rarely do anything that's not colourwork (apart from socks).🧦

The fairy books are out of print… I‘ve been seeking them out in secondhand shops, but the prices have gone up so much I don’t think I can ever complete the set.

A cushion cover. I bought a few plain cushions last week... and of course they can't stay plain! 😅
