Love it when an impromptu visit to the coast results in a bargain book purchase (£1) gives me something of pure joy to read, and to dream of another life. And of course all the better with coffee too.
Happy days and first day of #30DaysWild 🌊📚☕️

Essential break time before I tackle the weaving and start the steeking on this latest small wall hanging which will be winging its way to Arizona soon.
Wish me luck folks as it's always a nervous time for me - homemade pizza, chocolate, coffee and birdwatching helps though. ❤️🍕🧶🪡☕️🍫

Happy #InternationalDawnChorusDay #bluesky folks (recorded 4.40 ish) - let's celebrate these wonderful birds that are with us all day, every day and definitely keep me #inspiredbynature for #Ecobeanies #beaniesforbirders 🎵🎶🐦❤️👏🧶🪡 @rspb.bsky.social @rspbengland.bsky.social
Excitement in my little yarden today as this lovely Song Thrush makes an appearance. Just goes to show even the most simple things like a plastic dish of water can bring in the birds. Also great inspiration for my next #ecobeanies #beaniesforbirders project. ❤️🐦🪡🧶 #knitting #knitwilding
Couldn't let today pass by without celebrating the knitted bobble hat my sis made for me many years ago and it flys out every year on this very special day. Happy #WorldCurlewDay folks and a very happy Easter too! ❤️

Progress in the #knittingcorner today as I work my way through the hood on this Haida hoodie and such a brilliant pattern thanks Knit Wild. Looking forward to grafting in the sleeves and finishing off this week. Wish me luck knitting folks. 🙂🤞🧶🪡 #knitwilding #ecobeanies #wellbeing
Been a while posting and busy times in the #EcoBeanies #knittingcorner with a few projects on the go, in particular probably my most challenging knit so far - a hoodie with a button band, oh my, wish me luck! 😬🤞❤️🪡🧶 #knitting #challenge #knitwilding
My #EcoBeanies journey in sock making has started and after struggling with Magic Loop (which is strange because I am used to knitting jumpers in the round), my first attempt at using DPN's is going well so far. Heel turn next, wish me luck! 🤞🧶🪡 #knittingcorner

As it's that "in between" days time of year, I am enjoying spending time exploring my new festive gift #knitting book "Knit Wild".
Cannot wait to cast on new projects. Happy Monday everyone!

Hot off the needles in the knitting corner this morning is a new rustic #EcoBeanies special in colours inspired by nature - the yarn is Icelandic #lettlopi. This one is a #beaniesforbirders design based on a Common Sandpiper - I love the colours. Happy with my new larger branding buttons too. ♥️🪡🧶
#Ecobeanies is venturing into the world of socks and whilst not quite brave enough to turn heels yet, am super happy with my first attempt at tube socks. These are made out of Naturgarn from Viking of Norway. Any top tips for sock #knitting gratefully received. 🧶🪡❤️

From humble beginnings springs a lovely little Tipi cushion (Pattern Linka Neumann). Started this #ecobeanies project 3 days ago and after a 2 hour weaving session, it's finally finished. Fascinating how all those bits of wool make such a beautiful pattern! ❤️🎄🧶🪡

It's a stormy day today and after a busy week of #EcoBeanies events and selling, it's time to settle into the #Knittingcorner and restock. Days like these are so much better with homemade pizza and salted caramel latte. Have a great weekend everyone! 🧶🪡🎄

Another very chilly day yesterday here in #Scotland #Cairngorms but I was super warm in my hand knitted #alafosslopi jumper. A joy to be here in a complete #winterwonderland wonderland. Back to knitting #EcoBeanies and #beaniesforbirders ready for festive fairs. ❤️❄️🐦🧶🪡

Enjoying knitting #Ecobeanies and #nordic headbands #inspiredbynature ready for festive fairs. In such a beautiful setting, there is no shortage of #knitting inspiration. I make #beaniesforbirders from 100% Icelandic Wool all colours inspired by #birds. #birdinggear www.instagram.com/ecobeanies/p...
Nearly there folks! Just putting the final touches to the neckline, then it's weaving and finishing to do. Cannot wait and just love this #Alafosslopi wool. 😊❤️🧶🪡👏 #knitting #ecobeanies #ecoknitter
Good morning! Another update from the Knitting Corner today and an early start adding in colours to the new jumper. These Alafosslopi shades (Chartreuse Green, Burnt Orange and Light Grey Tweed) really make me happy and are so cosy too. ❤️🧶🪡🍁🍂
#knitting #autumncolours #EcoBeanies
Cosy days ahead in #ecobeanies HQ and I cannot wait to finish this latest jumper. Yarn is #alafosslopi in Cypress Green Heather, contrasting Burnt Orange and Oatmeal Heather. Beautiful #wool to knit with and my favourite at the moment❤️🪡🧶 #myknittingworld
