I love this time of year; for me it’s a real time of reflection, a time to look back in wonder at the year gone by.
And what a year it has proven to be, both personally and here at the Nest too. This year I have created a montage of my favourite memories, both hooky and the not so hooky!
January 2016
Started with a lovely little trip to the worlds smallest library…in a phone box and finished with felt flowers.
February 2016
Was filled with my Flower Fiesta installation and saw the release of a yarny little leaf pattern…on the house of course!
March 2016
Maybe one of my favourite months this year as it was full of hookiness, creativity and some much needed soul restoration . Some much needed time away from studying for a PGdip, juggling placements, family, home and a whole heap of essays! There was the Robins Nest Square pattern release, followed by a tutorial for joining with a double crochet and a BIG thank you.
April 2016
Well, April really did whizz by under a heavy cloud of essay pressure, but I did find time to look for some lovliness and learn a new yarny skill despite a Woolly dilemma.
May 2016
Was permeated with bluebells, al fresco dining and a woolly win.
June 2016
Left me feeling chuft!
July 2016
was celebrated with a yarny give -a-way and a growing pile of PHD’s
August 2016
Brimmed with crochet goodness; hooking al fresco, completing the very V blanket and tutorial and not forgetting the graffiti robin.
September 2016
Saw the calm before the storm, a quilting Ouch! and the launch of The Grandma Collection.
October 2016
Oh my days!
October held the secret of happiness…alpaca walking! Enough excitement for one month you might think, but there was also the release of The Grandma Mary Tea Cosy pattern. Too much!
November 2016
Was bleak to be honest, but there was a WOW and a fond farewell
