I used to knit and sell wrist warmers in the art gallery where I volunteered a few years ago. They were very popular

Socks could fit inside them and have a nice snooze I think we are still tweaking the recipe a bit

Multi purpose arm warmers Is it your own design or do you have a pattern for them?

 

[Socks' Mum]

No, I just put it against my arm and knitted accordingly. I've got nylon sleeves, but they are too chilly for winter. I just wanted the benefits of knitting (soothing, repetitive etc) without much commitment

I made these a few years ago. It's a pattern for mittens but I made them longer.

I really love them, they’re so pretty and colorful! Arm warmers are one of my favorite things to wear, especially when its cold. You should totally start selling them again, I know lots of people who would love to buy those.

I'm enjoying Tom Dudley's Game of Wool on Channel 4, it's great. Very different to the Sewing B. Much more relaxed. The knitting is amazing

Daley not Dudley

Yes, I watched it too. It's cozy and warm viewing

I’ve had the time to try out some fabric collage this weekend. Quite by chance, I have made a seasonal series of fabric collage landscapes. It’s been really fun to try out something new

I used to crochet but have forgotten how to do it! I do a bit of very simple knitting, mainly for my altar (deities of Radha and Krishna).

I also read and watch tv and spend a lot of time caring for my rabbit (soon to have a new friend) and guinea pigs. Also Rusty dog takes a fair bit of time what with walks and play time and lots of cuddles!
