Video Blog - Episode 8

Thank you for coming to check out episode 8 of our video blog πŸ˜€. Between various family illnesses, a small baby (and that that entails) and working on some new patterns it has been a very busy month. I have been thoroughly enjoying lots of baby snuggles, and mentally planning new patterns whilst doing midnight feeds lol.

Unfortunately, I haven’t had quite as much crochet time as I would like - I have yet to master crocheting with a baby resting on my chest! However, this has encouraged me to concentrate on finishing WIPs and the crochet projects that are most important at this moment in time. Fortunately, I finished my So Eggstra blanket before the baby arrived which allowed the launch to go a little more smoothly - although technical issues with our camera corrupted the cover photo that I had originally selected 😒. Fingers crossed that this will be fixed soon.

Short on time right now? Pin the image below as a reminder to watch it later.
