What a find!



MAKE: A hell of a lot of Knitwear




This is officially the best Charity Shop find I've ever had. A Jones Lace maker and Knitting Machine, with all the instructions, patterns, and the additional Ribbing attachment! So much excitement... so much knitting potential! I can now knit in seconds what would normally take me all night with needles. So by the end of the month I'll eat my hat if I'm not completely dressed in my own knitted outfit.

The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page


MAKE: Mobile Art



This is our Windrush 1977 Caravan. He's going to become a mobile Art studio; touring Festivals with his belly full of plants, hand made books, baked poetry cakes, a printing press, and a bicycle powered Super 8 projector which will play outside in a multicoloured, hand made awning. I'll be tracking his progress on here...
