You wow us yet again with your crafty skills

This is just one of my recently knitted jumpers. I love to make intarsia designs and have done others featuring Darth Vader, Paddington Bear and more. I knitted a Hedwig sweater for my daughter who is a big Harry Potter fan. I’ve also made her a Quidditch top and a Gryffindor hat and scarf, so the jumper seemed to finish off the set!

We are in awe of your intarsia skills, Siobhán!

I’ve been knitting for a few years but really got into it more during lockdown. I buy your magazine religiously; it’s my favourite and I now have quite a collection of toys that I’ve made. I really enjoy creating them and my children love to play with them. This is my daughter, Emilia, she’s seven and absolutely adores Beth the vet from issue 138!

We’re so happy you love the magazine and that your children enjoy the toys

I made this crocheted crab rug as part of a customer order using Stylecraft Chunky, which is super soft so the rug will feel cosy underfoot. The shade is Lipstick and I think it’s so vibrant and a perfect crab colour. The pattern is from a book that’s filled with fun patterns. I’ve also made a second rug in a giraffe design!

This is such a fun and quirky design, we love it!

USE THE FORCE

Grogu was a Christmas gift for my lovely friend, Gayle. It was lots of fun to make with very clear instructions. The pattern is by Mucau Amigurumi on Etsy.

Well received it was!

LOCKDOWN PALS

During the pandemic lockdowns when we couldn’t see any friends, I decided to crochet my own! I really enjoyed crafting their different outfits and making them unique.
