Welcome

 Welcome to my new blog. All about my crafts and knitting patterns. Please be patient as I am a mother of two children which I also homeschool. Time is not always on my side but I will try to post as frequently as possible. 

I am from South Africa and you can visit my Facebook page where I have a lot of my finished work shared. Some of my own patterns but also some from other sites. 

I love knitting it is so relaxing and so many people ask for my patterns and that is why I decided to post most of them to the blog. I want to make some available on pdf for you to purchase. It will help me to grow and bring out more patterns.

Have a great week! See you soon...
