HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE THIRD INSTALMENT OF THE 2024 MYSTERY BLANKET CLUB! We are getting up to speed this month with five squares to knit. And with the next parcels being packed up and posted to you very soon, the project is well and truly underway! The weather has been very up and down here in the UK, but I don’t mind because when it’s wet and windy outdoors, it’s great for knitting indoors. And with the Easter celebrations in full swing (Happy Easter everyone!), there’s plenty of chocolate in our house to enjoy while knitting the hours away. So let’s start with some new tech vids, there a ..read more

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE PENULTIMATE BLOG OF THE 2023/24 MYSTERY BABY BLANKET CLUB! First of all I must apologise for the delay in posting this blog. We had an extremely hectic week in the run up to the 1st March with some unexpected tasks to deal with (Mystery Blanket Club members will know what I am referring to!) and consequently there just wasn’t enough time to get it written. So here it is, a few days late, but hopefully you'll still find the tips and advice in it helpful this month. I can hardly believe that we are in the penultimate month of this club, with just one more instalment to ..read more

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE SECOND INSTALMENT OF THE 2024 MYSTERY BLANKET CLUB! It was only two weeks ago that the club started, but in that short space of time everyone seems to have settled into the project really well, and I’ve seen on our social media platforms some lovely photos and enthusiastic comments about the progress made so far. So what a great start to this new KAL!   I am super excited this month because not only am I about to reveal the next four squares of the blanket to you, but sign-ups for my 2024 Mystery Cushion Club have opened, so there is a whole new knitting adve ..read more

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE 2024 MYSTERY BLANKET CLUB! I am absolutely thrilled to be launching Mystery Blanket Club number 17 in my collection, and I am so happy that you have decided to join me!

For the next ten months we will be knitting our way through forty-nine squares which will give you the opportunity to try out different stitches and learn new knitting techniques. And at the end of it you will have your very own be ..read more

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE FIFTH BLOG OF THE 2023/24 MYSTERY BABY BLANKET CLUB! So far it’s been a cold and wet start to the year, with only an occasional glimmer of sunshine, and consequently I find myself in a seemingly never-ending bout of a nasty cold, which I just can’t shake off. However, looking on the bright side, it does mean I can snuggle up all day on the sofa with my knitting which is by far the best comfort, so I am sure this will help me hugely on my road to recovery. If you are feeling fine and ready for your next batch of squares, then I have five more for you to knit this month ..read more

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND WELCOME TO THE FOURTH MBBC23 INSTALMENT! I hope that you have had a fabulous Christmas and are looking forward to a busy and creative 2024! We managed to take some time off to spend with the family and are continuing to enjoy some downtime before Seth returns to school on the 4th January. And if you’re still on your hols too, then what better way to begin the new year than with a whole new batch of squares to knit!?! So settle down with some festive treats and a cuppa and indulge yourself in all that gorgeous yarn… There is no intro from me this month and no new tech vids ..read more

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE FURRY FRIENDS GALLERY! It’s always fun to see which furry friends have been keeping you company while you knit up your projects, and over the past few years these gorgeous pets have been snapped and sent in to be shared with everyone! So here they are, our best friends, helpers (and hinderers!)... Violet sent in by Susan Cumming from Gainesville, Florida, USA: “I couldn’t pass up the chance to send Violet’s photos for your gallery.  The first is Violet on “Mars” in a glam shot taken at her Spa. Next is Violet relaxing on Deco Dreams. She is two years old now and ..read more

WELCOME TO THE THIRD INSTALMENT OF THE 2023 MYSTERY BABY BLANKET CLUB! The weather has taken a real turn here in the UK and this morning I woke up to clear blue skies and a thick frost. I love this time of year when winter begins to take hold and the whole landscape changes. It’s the perfect climate for knitting, and with five more squares to knit this month, what could be better than settling yourself in your most comfy chair, needles in hand, ready to make a start!   I’ve recorded an intro to this month’s blog which I hope you will tune into and give a listen before you read my blog.
