They are fabulous - what do you do with them all?

Uh...nothing >.> See, you could put jewellery endings on them, turn them into proper bracelets or anklets, but my tremors have become that bad I can't do the finer work, too much chance of a slip. I have all the stuff here, just no way of doing anything with it.

@Lorcan generously donated some to our rescue and we have sold some at our events. I had a basket ready for sale at our Easter fair, but sadly we have had to cancel it.

If the tremors ever settle enough and you'd like some more, you'd be more than welcome. And if not, I promise to not be offended lol.

I went on a beginner's course last year and made a hat. It was knitted flat then stitched together. This blanket is my second item. I'm quite slow but it's going well. My mum tried to teach me when I was younger but I don't think she's a teacher :))

My mum would sit in front of the tv knitting ,her eyes glued on the screen, she knitted all our jumpers for school and best. And there was 5 of us kids.
 
I can sometimes knit while looking at the tv. But I have a bad habit of listening rather than watching. My husband doesn’t understand...I can’t just sit there doing nothing 😬

Cooking/baking can be considered a craft! YUM 🤤

@Rebecca & Piggies I’ve got a cross stitch that’s been in the works for...probably close to 20 years 😬🤫😂 I’ve recently pulled it out so live in hope...though I have quite a bit of knitting to do.

Does the foam come
In different thicknesses? What do you do when you have to wash them?

The foam is 1/2” thick and is only on the top bit, the base has double fleece with absorbent layer in the middle. I don’t make them into sell, I only auction them for charity. I pay for all the fabrics and the wining bid pays the charity and I pay for postage (UK only) They seem to wash well

Jemimah claimed the red and white star tunnel as hers and hers alone.
Other pigs may use it but only if she doesn’t want to.

:)) Jess did the same with the brilliant one @Bill & Ted made for her too! Luigi had to sneak in for the odd 30secs before getting his butt kicked out! :))

The amazingly talented @teddymouse has been making me a very special teddy! And taking some photos to show me how he’s been made as I’ve been very interested in the process! You might recognise him! :D

Started knitting this scarf a while ago using macrame yarn so that it's heavy enough to act as a stylish waited blanket that I can wear in public to calm my Autism related panicking. only problem I accidentally left the yellow yarn I started (and intend to finish it) with at my mother in laws and she should be in isolation. So I've been carrying on with the white until I can get the yellow back but this makes it a very long scarf.
