If I can turn a heel whilst walking with the twinnage, I can do anything, right? Like, for example, beat this silly uppity little cancerous lump. Right? Yeah?? Maybe???

One that I didn't managed to squeeze into the blog post at thetwistedyarn.com. Even the drainage holes in the churchyard wall received the yarn-bombing treatment!

Not allowed to run yet post-surgery, but walking is encouraged. (This is about the tenth iteration of this mitten design, but I think I'm happy with the way it's going now.)

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.

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.)

Better pics to come on a brighter day, but it's done! My design to reflect how Covid has trampled all over everything this year. Pics show Covid thingies before and after Swiss darning, so you can see how design works. PATTERN AVAILABLE VERY SOON! (Can also be worn as skirt... just about - see final pic.) Yarn is Stylecraft Highland Heathers.

Just time for a couple of rounds of the new skirt colours before I begin work.

I think Robyn might be sulking because I didn't come out the second she appeared at the window. So now I'm sitting out here with her breakfast and she's elsewhere.

It's been handed over to its recipient now, so I can show you the finished object. I was aiming for a vaguely vintage look, since it's for a friend to hang in her shepherd's hut.

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.

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.

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. ❤️

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.

The secret-squirrel knitting I've been doing lately? Well I can now reveal that the fabulous @littleboxofcrochet asked me to create two designs for their July box.
.
This was a ginormous honour, because their boxes are unfailingly luscious. I've loved being involved with the project, and I hope you'll enjoy the result! Don't think I'm allowed to spoil the surprise of box contents quite yet, but I'll show you soon when I can. ...

Nope, you haven't got rid of me yet! 😁😁😁 This pic is from yesterday, three days post-surgery, walking three miles very slowly. I'm mostly dozing, or walking, or saying "Yes you can get yourself another fourteen biscuits" to the twinnage. Not really knitting yet. (I know, I know, call an ambulance right now!) THANK YOU for all your kind comments and messages. BYE BYE CANCER!

Someone's beginning to get her red breast feathers. ❤ Unlike Robyn-the-robin and Robinson, this one isn't interested in mealworms. Instead she follows me so closely around the garden that I often nearly step on her. As I pull up weeds and move pots around, she darts in to grab caterpillars and other critters. Sometimes, one of the twinnage comes to tell me that she's waiting by the back door, so I have to go and do a bit of weeding, just to please her. So once again, I'm being bossed about by somebody three inches tall. *sigh*

It's soooo good to be running again, especially as I've developed a nasty side-effect (cording) in my arm. But I think they must have surgically removed all my fitness as well as the cancer because I'm PLODDING! (PS: I'm not really this short, but I was trying for an arty angle.)
