Crochet with Clare, video tutorials and written patterns.

Hello !

31/3/2017

Hello and welcome to another blog post
You may or may not have noticed that I have gone a little quiet on the crochet tutorials
My husband and I are in the middle of moving house and whilst I did have good intentions to be organised and have video tutorials to cover this interruption to our lives...well....that didn't go to plan haha One minute we had 8 weeks until we had to move and the next minute its was a few days
I still have Vlog style videos scheduled so you can see what I have been up to crafty wise. I can not give you an exact date as to when I will be back on deck with the tutorials because we will not be in our next place for about 8 weeks and then we have to set up the studio again. I hope to be up and running spometime in June, but we all know how plans can go haha

I hope you are having a fantastic week and getting lots of crochet time
Happy crochet
Clare xx

3 days of Yarn friends and a fabulous time

28/3/2017

Welcome to another blog post, I hope you are well and getting lots of crochet time or at least some crochet dreaming time :)
The beginning of March is the Unwind Retreat in Dunedin, New Zealand. I went last year and met so many new people and learnt (and purchased) so much that I couldn't wait for this year.
Built in the 1860's, the Waines hotel was a beautiful venue for the retreat, with a big room for the market place and sitting area for us all to sit, chat and compare yarn hauls haha

I have made a vlog (see below) and I will put all the links that you need for the items shown in the vlog below

From a very limited number of plant extract and a small bug you can get a rainbow. Results from 3 months work. Because I want these colours to last every dyepot sat around after cooking for at least 24 hours and my mordanted skeins take 3-5 days to mature before rinsing. Not a speedy process. Beauty takes time. #naturaldye #naturaldyeing #plantdye #dyersofinstagram #handdyeing #handdyed
