Noggin 🙂 Super Chunky Hand Knitted Campervan Beanie Bobble Hats
I love super chunky yarn! I loose interest far too quickly if I knit with anything less than Double Knit weight yarn so Super Chunky is a firm favourite. I’ve made up many designs for patterns using Wendy Serenity Super Chunky, a mix of Alpaca, wool and acrylic. Sadly, it is now discontinued but I […]

Stash busting Pop Art campervan cushion cover

Crochet your own Campervan
Up until now most of my Campervan projects have been knitted so I thought it was time to give crochet a go. I’ve had the idea of making a 3D model of a Campervan in the back of my mind for a while and crochet seemed like a great way to make something pretty structured. […]
