It’s time for an intro or reintroduction to those of you that have been here for a while ! Thanks for sticking with me while I’ve been awol the last year .

I’m Kate , I live with my 2 teenage daughters in Hereford and I’ve been knitting , sewing and crocheting since I was 10 years old which is over 40 years … I started a craft business in 2015 making kids clothes mostly print dresses then jersey leggings and after a few years switched to concentrating on knit and crochet with my signature chunky hats . Last year I started combining my love of yarn and sewing with my hand stitched kids sweaters with name initials and festive designs as well as developing my slight obsession with bows - not just for Christmas ! So there’s a bit of knitting , a bit of sewing , some personalised embroidery items and I like to share my crochet hobby - any spare time i might have is spent making blankets .

I have an Etsy shop , link in bio and everything ready made is now live with more items to come - just bear with me over the summer holidays !

Thankyou for reading this far !
