Robyn-the-robin would prefer that I didn't shove a camera in her face whilst she's busy enjoying today's third breakfast. I can see her point, actually.

Same skirt, different moods, all finished at last. I'm quite pleased with how this design is turning out.

Right, that's the knitting done. Now to finish a bit of strategic Swiss darning before I show you the finished cowl with a rather surprising design element, and publish the pattern. I've loved working with Stylecraft Highland Heathers*.

*Which I didn't pay for. But I've genuinely loved it anyway.

Someone isn't in the mood to be hand-fed today, but she's here to say hi (and to eat the mealworms I scattered on the ground). Look how well her tail feathers have regrown!

Occasionally you just have to put your feet up and crochet some bunting. (Pattern for granny triangles from @attic24, then I added a few details.)

Today I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I'm fine, and looking on the bright side, I now have the perfect excuse to lounge on the sofa and knit even more than usual for the next few months. 😁 Normal silliness and yarniness will continue both here and on the blog, because that's just how I roll. Also, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO CROCHET A BREAST TUMOUR?! I mean, viruses look kinda cute and quirky under the microscope, but breast cancers are just BLOBS. So... I will not be releasing a pattern for this rather rubbish piece of crochet.

Breakfast time here at Twisted Towers. THANK YOU so so so much for every single one of your kind, warm-hearted, comments and DMs in response to my last post. They were a huge comfort, but also I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by so much love! I'm not sure how to reply to so many, but let me at least begin with this post.

A friend and I are making nettle yarn, and one of the stages is to 'bake' the nettle stems for a few hours. Given this quantity of nettles, I would have needed to keep the oven on for a week! So here's my solution. It's 32°C out there today, and if I leave the car in the sun, I reckon it'll get more than hot enough. Fingers crossed.

An afternoon in the New Forest, wandering amongst the semi-wild ponies. This one came to investigate whether my yarn was edible! Needed a portable knit, so I started a sock in some fiery @burrow_and_soar yarn. ❤️

Sometimes, you just need a little bit of easy comfort-knitting. This will be a jumper. The yarn is @stylecraftyarns Dreamcatcher and I'm enjoying watching the colour shifts play out.

Please allow me to introduce you to Wilfred. He (or she) is one of Robyn-the-robin's grandchildren. S/he's currently hiding behind various objects in the garden near his/her one - or possibly two - sibling(s) - also called Wilfred, because they're indistinguishable from each other. (Hmm, maybe I should have taken that approach to naming with my own identical twins...)
.
ANYWAY, I thought you'd like to meet little Wilfred. Robinson and his wife are very proud parents, and they seem to trust me near their precious children, which I'm taking as the greatest honour.

Erm, excuse me young lady, but you know you're not supposed to come into the house. Her latest trick is to come in and stand on the tub of mealworms whilst we're having a meal, staying there until someone feels guilty enough to get up and feed her.

Hospital waiting room knitting, pic 2 in a series of 7647568. 😁 Except today the waiting room is my car because of covid. But I have knitting and green tea, so I'll be FINE here for at least... oh maybe 2 days or so? Happy Friday, people! CHECK YOUR BOOBS (although maybe not right this minute if you're in a meeting at work).

Hello far-too-lovely folk. This one's about Robyn-the-robin. I haven't seen her for quite a while... and the last few times she visited, she really looked her age. Sorry to be the bearer of probably-bad news, but I think she's gone forever. 😢 And much as I like to think my heart is cold and impregnable, I really, really, REALLY miss her bold and cheeky attitude. I loved her more than was probably wise.
