Inspirational Craftsmanship Using Recycled Materials

  • Tweet
  • Email

I watched this video from the ever amazing Upworthy site a couple of days ago and simply had to share it. Having watched this, the reasons that I hear from people on a daily basis as to why they don’t recycle are shown up for what they truly are… excuses.

 

A Must Watch Video!!

 

The children themselves are wonderfully talented but I’m sure you’ll agree that those people who actually collect the materials and craft those stunning instruments are truly special. Eco crafting at its most extreme.

Last of the gnomes for now. They've been so popula Last of the gnomes for now. They've been so popular, thanks for all the orders folks! ☺️ This shawl bag is in a new colourway. A brighter blue on an ice blue background. Super winter-y. ❄️ It will be heading off to its forever home this weekend. Expect more spring appropriate fabrics in the coming weeks as I live in hope of warmer weather. 😁 #knittingbags #projectbag #knittingaccessories #knittersofinstagram #britishknitters #etsyselleruk #shoplocal

It's a chilly night here in West Lothian, obviousl It's a chilly night here in West Lothian, obviously the perfect time for some therapeutic sock knitting. Especially since there's more sock yarn on the way! 😙 I started this beauty 3 years ago 😳 and have no idea why it's never been finished. The pattern is so easy to follow and I really like the contrasting colour and pattern in the panel below the cuff. Ruth, the designer behind the pattern, did a great job with this one. 👏🥰 I am going to have more actual pairs eventually. 😂 #socktawk #britishknitters #yarnink #womenwhomake #knitlife #socknittersofinstagram #mindfullymade
My lovely friend Lucy is hoping to re-open her LYS My lovely friend Lucy is hoping to re-open her LYS, Purl A Row, after a recent move from Cornwall to Lincolnshire. Under the current circumstances it's proving to be a bit of a struggle, so any and all support would be deeply appreciated. Even if it's just sharing the information with others! 😊
If you're looking for a knitty treat for yourself or even a gift for a knitting friend, do check out the luxury Christmas boxes that Lucy has available. Her Knit Lit box series has proven very popular, so you might also be interested in the new Woodland Box subscription boxes which start in January. 👏😉 All sign up links can be found on the website at the link below! #shoplocal #smallbusinessuk

A little happy mail that arrived recently that was A little happy mail that arrived recently that was so fun to unwrap. 🥰 I couldn't be more in love with this colourway, Samhain. A truly beautiful blend of purple and grey on an organic merino base. The squish! Be still my beating heart. No clue what I'm making with it yet, I just had to have it... if only to admire and pet it for a while. 😂 @faefolkfibres is an exciting new venture from the talented Shadow, the colour magician behind Felt Fusion yarns. Do pop over to her new IG for all the links and info, and see the stunning colourways for yourself. #organicyarn #allthepurple #britishknitters #igknitters #yarnlover #stashacquisition #merinoyarn
