#marchmeetthemaker today is 'recent work'. I've been playing around with crochet designs recently, taking a bit from there and adding my own touches here... . This cute lil pouch bag is made using #cambrianwool and a chunky waffle stitch. . The leather strap being inspired by #mollamills . #crochetersofinstagram #welshwool #crochet #pouchbag #wafflestitch #iamamaker #recentwork #crochetdesign #woolandleather #ruralwales #ruralstudio #crochettutorial #crochetpattern

#marchmeetthemaker today is 'close up or up close'. Here I share my joy of hand spun local wool. I love transforming a smelly, raw sheep fleece into a simple yarn that can be woven, knitted, crocheted and dyed, transforming natural fibre into cloth to warm and comfort the body or home. This is my joy, 'close up' . #handspunyarn #welshwool #rawfleece #yarn #weave #knit #crochet #dye #closeup #thickandthinyarn #badgerface #ruralwales #iamamaker #handspinnersofinstagram #spinnersofinstagram #weaversofinstagram

Wearing a knee brace is not much fun at the moment but at least I can do a bit of weaving ๐๐ป . This is a hand spun thick and thin Jacob single ply yarn that I spun before my knee injury on my new kiwi super flyer by #ashfordhandicrafts . I like the texture, twist, fluffy bits and colour variations of this yarn very much. #weaving #frameweaving #handspunyarn #jacobyarn #texture #ashfordkiwisuperflyer #thickandthinyarn #welshwool #handspinnersofinstagram #weaversofinstagram #rurallife #ruralwales #iamamaker
