Hello #crochet Bluesky/ #crochetsky - I really enjoy watching a whole bunch of crochet YouTubers already, but if you have any recommendations I'd love to hear them. I'm old now and more into comfy/cosy than high adrenaline vlogging 😊

One of my weekend highlights was a chap selling homegrown mushrooms at very good prices 🍄‍🟫

There’s something very liberating about wearing wellies with regular clothes. #splishsplash

My book preorder came in early and I had some good news today, so I’m going to enjoy wine and date night tonight ☺️

I love the novel so much, but both stand on their own!

It's usually a bit of a John Carpenter-fest for me. It has to include Prince of Darkness, Halloween (obvs) and The Fog. (I watch The Thing on NYE.) I like to rewatch the Mike Flanagan Hill House series. Also gotta do Hocus Pocus. There are usually a few ghost story events/shows here and there too.

This is really pretty and has inspired me to do something similar with all my cotton scraps/leftovers 🙂

Big, sad feelings today. Feelings that I suspect can only be mitigated by a large pasta dinner, a Hammer Horror session, and crochet.

Excellent spoopy season display in the library!

A library display unit with a sign that says ‘ghostly reads’. There is Barrowbeck, Thin Air, and others.

This is actually true and accurate and valuable advice. I’m glad my relationship with my espresso machine recovered.

"Remove the machine from the box. Carefully. You want to make a good first impression. Use a firm, yet gentle grip to establish trust. Too weak a grip, and your high-end Italian espresso machine will never respect you."
