The Chat | Astareal
https://astareal.wordpress.com/2010/07/21/the-chat
July 21, 2010 in Knitting. Andy had a ‘chat’ with me last night. For once it wasn’t about the rectangle of doom by my side of the bed, or my habit of leaving the foil tops from milk bottles on the side in the kitchen, or even the way I wander from room to room whilst on the phone, meaning that he simply cannot escape from my conversation with my mother about cheese. Started them. and the jumper and mittens are nearly finished, so they don’t count either. On another note, I got another parcel this morning...

March 21, 2010 in Uncategorized. Originally uploaded by Ses Springett. I bought a loom. Poor Andy, poor, poor boy. I’d like to tell him I’m sorry… but I’m not (! It’s arriving sometime this week and I’m very excited. I decided the best way to practise my selvedges is to just go, and weave until I run out of yarn/patience/energy! And this picture is what I’ve ended up with (so far! Yes, I MADE That. Comments feed for this article. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Notify me of new comme...

Hello! | Astareal
https://astareal.wordpress.com/2010/07/08/hello
July 8, 2010 in Life. There have been many disturbances of late, culminating in the complete lack on blogging. The short of it is that my husband’s got cancer (he’s ok though! The long of it is written down here. It’s been a tough few months but we’re getting there! I have many things to share with you though, there has been a lot of knitting, crocheting, weaving, sewing and general floweriness going on! Yes, I MADE That. Comments feed for this article.

August 5, 2010 in Uncategorized. Click here for the flickr notes. And finally – the bowl of DK scraps – all sorts of fibres, these are becoming the brightly coloured crochet blanket. This pile kept growing as I went through the boxes! It’s now all neatly packaged into moth and dust-proof plastic bags, ready to be used for many months of crochet, knitting and weaving!

Last Week | Astareal
https://astareal.wordpress.com/2010/02/22/last-week
February 22, 2010 in Uncategorized. Last week was very busy…Monday is my pottering day, as I work saturdays it’s the extension of my weekend. I spent it mooching around the house, doing laundry, tidying, relaxing. It was lovely. Tuesday was a mite stressful. We went on a uni trip to the Horniman Museum in south London. It was half term. I think you get my drift? Friday, back at uni… model making, head full of ideas! Saturday I was at work in the coffee shop, it was pretty quiet again and I got plenty of ...

Decluttering | Astareal
https://astareal.wordpress.com/2010/12/08/decluttering
December 8, 2010 in Uncategorized. I am a woman on a mission. 2 months ago we moved house and instead of getting movers, we moved ourselves. Bit of a shock. I had no idea how much stuff we had, not even remotely. It is overwhelming and honestly, makes me feel a little bit sick. If you’re at all interested in having a simpler life and decluttering then check out Unclutterer. 8211; great blogs that have really been helping me! Yes, I MADE That. Comments feed for this article.
