Introduction

Hello all :). As you have probably accidentally stumbled across this blog by accident; I am NOT offering advice to fellow unemployed people. I created this blog in order to document my latest crafting & baking "experiments". As I am well aware the days, weeks and months pass by very quickly while depending on Job Seekers Allowance and filling in endless application forms. Therefore as Suz, my totally excellent friend suggested "why don't you start writing a blog about your daily crafts and bakes?!" I thought, why not! Every day I try to think of new things I could create, however some items I have created have taken several days, if not months to complete! My love of baking and cooking in general has been passed down to me from both of my Grannies and my mum. Granny Edna deserves a special mention; due to her kindness, patience and willingness to teach a child from the age of 3 to bake cakes, buns & all things tasty, I still love baking, thanks Granny :D.    

This is my first post, I will add some photos and some examples of my latest "creations".

PS I am learning to knit. I have completed two scarfs this year. I make mistakes daily with my knitting so my mum and Suz are constantly editing it for me. If you are also learning to knit follow my blog for inspiration and "help". The latter will be provided by a friend, Youtube or my mum lol.

PPS I recommend purchasing a copy of "Stitch 'n Bitch Handbook" by Debbie Stoller if you are interested in learning to knit or wanting to improve your knitting skills!
