Since everything has been cancelled for the foreseeable, West Dean asked me to do some online tutorials so people can keep their hands and minds busy. These are going to be a series, starting from absolute beginners and working through all basic crochet stitches. Once we’ve done that we’ll make something, perhaps some make-up remover pads and /or some granny squares. If you have any requests or preferences, let me know.

I’m delighted to have an article this month in Resurgence & Ecologist magazine all about the art and craft of darning, highlighting the lovely Darning: Repair, make, mend book from Hikaru Noguchi. All books are currently 25% off on the Hawthorn Press site.

Meanwhile, our Atelier darning workshops, Meet, Make, Mend have move online to Zoom. Follow on social media to get a link for the next one.

Keep well, keep busy.
