Folksy Friday - Get your wellies on!

Quiet on the blog front again this week :( But I'm determined to do a Folksy Friday every week, whatever happens!

This week, as I have a long weekend planned down at the allotment, Folksy Friday is all about the garden :)

I'll have some photos of the allotment this weekend to post, although there's not a huge amount to see so far - a shed with some plastic on to stop the leaks and some empty veg beds - but its taken alot of digging so we're pretty proud of it!

Enjoy your weekend folks, if anyone is heading to the Farnham Maltings for a wander round the Unravel Festival of Knitting I might just see you there!

Folksy Friday - Needles and yarn at the ready!

If there's one craft that I'd love to be able to do, its knit. I've tried and tried and tried but the only thing I've managed to finish is a scarf and some fingerless gloves which were pretty much just rectangles of knit 1 row, purl 1 row etc. There's just something about yarn that inspires me, plus the fact that its a bit more portable than a sewing machine! I'll have another crack at it at some point, but for now I've gathered together just a small selection of the knitted goodies available on Folksy. Enjoy :)







Ok, so I snuck (sneaked?) a crocheted item in there, but it still counts! One of my missions this year is to learn how to crochet a granny square - so far my crochet adventures have been limited to amigurumi toys with varying degrees of success, although I have to say I'm pretty proud of the great white shark I made last year, if you're lucky I might just upload a photo of him at some point ;)

What is everyone up to this weekend? We're going down to our new allotment to get it cleared - think there will be some aching arms and backs in our house by the end of the weekend!

Folksy Friday - Time for a piece of cake and a cuppa

I'm in the mood for baking this weekend, and lets be honest - who doesn't love a big wedge of homemade cake every so often?! Before I head off into the kitchen here are a selection of cake and baking themed goodies from some super crafty Folksters
