✨ Merry Christmas ✨

As the year winds down, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who’s supported my small Scottish business this year.
Just a wee heads-up that any orders placed from now will be posted after New Year’s Day.

Wishing you a cosy, gentle festive season —
Lang may yer lum reek ✨

I’ve been quietly bringing some favourite characters together 💚

Two new knitting pattern bundles are now live:
✨ The Elf Family — Pepper, Pickle & wee Pip
⛄ The Snowman Family — Frosty, Crystal & Baby Snowball

Meet Pip 🧝‍♂️💚
Pickle and Pepper’s wee baby elf has arrived and he’s stolen my heart already.

Tiny, chubby, full of character — and very much giving “boss of the household” energy.
His pattern will be available soon, but for now this is just a wee hello 🧶

It’s my birthday today 🎂
So I’m doing exactly what I love most — a quiet day, a cuppa, and knitting away with Pepper the Elf keeping me company 🧶✨

No rushing, no pushing, just making for the joy of it and letting my brain rest in that happy, creative space.

Yesterday’s mystery knitting has a name now 👀🧶

This is Pepper, Pickle the Elf’s other half, slowly coming together one row at a time.

I’m still in full design mode — tweaking, frogging, and drinking far too much tea.

Thoughts on her colours?

Just finished making these Saltire & Thistles Mini Travel Game Sets and I’m so pleased with them!
Tartan pouch (made from recycled kilt fabric), laser-cut tic-tac-toe board, and wooden counters — proper Scottish zero-waste crafting. 💙🏴

Only 7 available:

Accidentally spent two days decluttering my craft room instead of doing… well, anything else I was meant to do. 😂

But she’s finally tidy(ish), I rediscovered half my stash, and I can see my desk again, which feels like a Christmas miracle.

December chaos. 💛✨

Accidentally fell down a bread-making rabbit hole today and produced the fluffiest wee sandwich loaf.
Light, soft, and honestly way better than I expected.
The domestic cosy era continues 🍞💛

“December Monthly Craft Challenge — prompt is Frosted.
All mediums welcome.
Share your makes with #LTMONTHLYCRAFT ❄️💙”

This is one of my fave things to do. I give old unwanted rags a new makeover and completely revive them. I did a really similar one to this dolla while back

A wee sneak peek at a new Scottish make…
Mini Thistles & Saltires tic-tac-toe game using reclaimed tartan and laser-cut wooden pieces.

Still adding the final touches and a matching wee bag, but I’m chuffed with how it’s shaping up! 💙🏴

A wee bag-in-progress this frosty Scottish morning 🍂🧶
I’ve pinned on this tartan pumpkin appliqué, but I can’t decide if it’s cute or just a bit odd 😅
Should I keep the tartan pumpkin with a wee green stem, or switch to a bright-orange felt one?

An’ so it begins… 🎄✨

First year with a skinny tree — my big, bushy 30-year-old one doesn’t fit with the furniture anymore 😂 Heating on, Christmas music going, and now I need to brave the loft for the decorations.

When do you put your tree up — December 1st or whenever the spirit hits? 🎄💚
