Favourite Find : Mylys • my local yarn shop

I think it's wonderful when something serendipitous happens, don't you? The chance decision to go and look for a coffee, down a street we don't usually go, found us falling into the most delightful cafe, that just happens to be directly connected to a wool and yarn shop! Bingo! The name of this gorgeous little… Continue reading Favourite Find : Mylys • my local yarn shop

Studio Life : New Monkies

Hi Friends 🙂 It's been a little while since I've posted here - probably a combination of a few things really.

After my Canon DSLR decided to freeze up on me in New York, I finally collected it from the shop today, repaired and ready to go! Yay!

Mini Break : Cricket on Helgoland

Without wanting to sound complacent, when you live in Europe you get a little spoilt for choice, when thinking about a weekend away. Living up here in the north of Germany means London, Paris, Copenhagen, Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam, Brussels, and Stockholm are little more than an hour away. Extend that to 2.5 hours and we… Continue reading Mini Break : Cricket on Helgoland
