Well I’ve been slowed down by force and now recuperating after emergency surgery. So it’s crochet and knitting, with flower origami for my daughter’s bridal bouquet thrown in, while trying to heal up over six weeks!
It seems like lots of things happen all at once in life – events never seem to be pleasantly spaced so you can place all your energy into one thing. In the process of trying to get medical help in my health emergency, (which was very difficult and distressing as the doctors didn’t want to help me) we also had the building of my new studio in progress. It is going well and I’m really looking forward to what will eventuate in the studio. You can see the great cupboard space to house all those yummy yarns and weave tools. I can’t wait until I’m well enough to unpack all those boxes I loaded up when I cleared out the space.
On another interesting note I received a link to a new Bhutanese textile pattern book on-line at

It is a great overview of traditional and classical textile patterns from the Royal Kingdom of Bhutan. 250 designs collated in graphical format. Well worth downloading.
