Hang Out With Me?
I’ve just sat down to type this out. I am, as you know, a woman of many words and I’ve been brewing on this for so long, still I find I am struggling to form my sentences and I am worried about being able to word myself in the best way for this, admittedly, quite…

Virtual Knit Night May 8th
In the last few newsletters we’ve discussed the moment when a WIP (work in process project) turns into a UFO (unfinished object project), and further to this, the dismissal of or rekindling of past loves.
