Winter Weather... Free colouring sheet

At last we have real winter weather, but if your not enjoying it cheer yourselves up and think of Summer by Coloring in this sheet of Vincent Bad Bunny in a field of sunflowers, amazing how therapeutic and satisfying coloring is! Enjoy, I'd love to see you finished picture :)

Elizabethan Style Jewellery

Made my own Elizabethan Style Brooch and a bit less practical but beautiful Ring. Inspiration came from being slightly obsessed with a particular person from the era, I often visit her Home and admire the needlework. This piece reminds me of the colours and the attention to detail of the era, what do you think?

Meet me on Ravelry

Fantastic site for knitters but ESPECIALLY crocheters as it seems in the UK like asking for a crochet pattern is like asking for gold dust. So find me and say Hi by popping on over to www.ravelry.com/people/Rustyfish
You can look at the items ive made and comment or look up patterns from Revelry, Books, Magazines, the internet.... Look up yearns and see what others made with them, join the forums and groups, get advice and more I love it :)

Meet the Sock Monsters

I have never introduced my Sock Creatures so here goes: Vincent Bad Bunny.

Vincent began life as a simple white sock, jumping around from an early age it was soon clear he needed to become a rabbit. Made from a single stray sock as a bunny he travelled a lot appreciating the beauty of the world around him. I believe hes not really naughty but when he escapes, jumping away he is just searching for his long lost other half. On this occasion he was caught in a field of sunflowers at Shipley Park in Derbyshire.


Available to buy as a kit to make your own, Cards and Christmas Cards, enjoy
