The League of Curious Knitters has kicked of its winter season with the Glendhu hat pattern.

This stranded colour work hat is knit in VP Superstar Sport.

The kit version of the league is sold out but you can still grab a digital place.

🔹 2:40pm update: We're finally back up and running! Sorry it was so long. Many thanks for your patience and thank you to the people who got in touch to let me know - I do usually spot issues pretty quickly but it's so helpful to get confirmation that it's more than a "me problem". xx 🔹

A bit of trouble with the website this morning. The tech people have identified the problem but are still working on it. So sorry for The inconvenience.

The League of Curious Knitters still has some spaces in it.

In June we focus on colour work. Let me show you my tips, tricks and secrets to successful stranded colour work knitting.

Get a kit each month or opt for a digital subscription and knit along using stash yarn.

At about 11pm we cuddled under a duvet on the deck and watched a really extraordinary show. Quite different to the early evening display.

A special showing of Aurora Australis tonight. I don’t really know how to drive my camera for night photography but it didn’t take much to capture some fun images.

No need to find a place free of light-pollution, just step out on the deck and look up.

A small matter of "personal" business. I'm selling off my Fluevogs (and a few other things), if this is your jam and you wear a size 9 you might be interested:

I'm only selling them because, after injury, I can't wear heels any more. 😭
