july was a blur | sewing, knitting, markets, crafting | vlog

What an exhausting and fulfilling month July was! It was packed full of crafting, sewing, making, dyeing, knitting and any other activity I can't quite remember. I have to say, after two very successful markets, I was on the brink of burnout but have almost fully recovered. ✨️ If you like sewing, knitting, and all things crafting, follow along on my social media 💛 silkandsticks?ig...

I was feeling less than motivated today, so I set myself a challenge. There's nothing like trying to knit while watching a clock count down...ha It did actually kind of work though! even if i did pepper in lots of chores/home activities in between hour challenges. It's something I'm going to try doing more frequently! ✨️ If you like sewing, knitting, and all things crafting, follow along on my ...

Most beautiful season ....everything sprouts 😊
Oh this looks cute!! Love it, thank you for sharing :) I'm off to make mine now! You've persuaded me :P
Amazing! Let me know how you go with it, I'm hoping to make another one in cotton for summer. 💛
I am getting ready to dabble in natural dying. Can it be made then stored in a mason jar for a period of time?
Hi! It absolutely can. I try to keep my jars in a cool, shaded spot to preserve them for as long as possible, but there will be some natural degradation over time. You are likely to grow some molds in there too. Thanks for watching!
The side-eye at the end! 😂😂😂
This has been a super fun little series ❤️ who knew there were so many froggy patterns! And I totally agree about metal needles. I don't usually try my luck at giveaways, but damn - that frog mat is amazing 😂 lee.made.this
I'm hoping to stumble across some more, always on the lookout. Tha l you for watching and good luck! 💛
The frog rugs you made are very cute! I think I will have to make one myself
Please do! I've linked the frog pattern in the video description. Thanks for watching 💛
omgosh! the frogs are freakn amazing! the towel thing made me laugh, i love it. i dont do any yarn art, scarred from childhood hehe but appreciate that ppl are continuing with it...the rug is adorable..id love 2 to sew up and stuff as my pet named geraldo pronounced 'hhhherrraldo' and would have a bestie forever and ever...also we would both need those matching vests...i too would drive 2 hours😁 cuz why wouldnt you for the perfect spot?...tfs your makes, enjoy your videos when i get a chance to sit with youtube...ig is same and i live in 🇨🇦 postage to here sux a$$... comment is bcuz i loved the froggies so much and you did excellent work... cheers
Thank you so much for watching (and understanding my long journey to the frog 😂) 💛💛
Yay! My daughter has designed and we've been making cowboy frog stuffies. She's gonna love this vid, and hopefully laugh, too!
Cowboy frog stuffies?!! They sound amazing! Thank you for watching 💛🐸🤠
When I started knitting I used bamboo but soon discovered that they start splintering I knitted mostly socks and shawls on tiny needles with skinny yarn and it became an issue with the bamboo they also tend to break easier as well. I then moved to wood needles loved them knitted with them for years. One day I purchased some stainless steel dbl pts for socks and loved them so much I have been slowly changing all my needles to metal. chery1ann
Bamboo can be very frustrating when it breaks (I've broken a few circulars now - I blame my tension!). I'll definitely be converting metal circulars, but I'm not ready to move on from my wooden straight needles yet 😅. Thanks for watching! 💛
I love all your work and enthusiasm. What is the knitting pattern of the orange sweater you were wearing?
Thank you so much! The sweater was self drafted, raglan style knit 💛
As a spinner 'Homespun' means yarn spun at home
Even on a knitting machine I can't imagine taking 3 hours - my last jumper on the knitting machine took 4 days. Hand joining the panels might take 3 hours if you're quick 😂
It was truly an impossible task 😅 thanks for watching 💛
Lovely vlog :)
Hi, with your older machine, a quick service may help. I use an old make-up brush to remove lint, and then I oil the recommended spots within the machine. Sometimes, with the bunching on the fabric, the bobbin thread hasn't caught correctly, or then bobbin is in the wrong way. Really enjoy your videos
I did give the old Singer a bit of TLC after recording. The poor thing was full of lint 😅 thank you for watching 💛
Glad to see the video! Salut from hot Russian august ❤
Thank you for watching! 💛💛💛
So delightful! I actually found your video just as I am completing my first jogak curtain. I agree it took A LOT longer than I had assumed it would. I stayed with white and tan fabrics, but now want to try one with bits of more exciting fabrics like yours. Aloha to you, your dog, and your tractor. 😊
I love the neutral palette! Although I am partial to a pop of texture here and there. Thank you so much for watching 💛
Beautiful!
I'd love a tour of your sewing room! It looks so cosy and sweet.
It's on my to do list! 💛
The frog rug is absolutely magnificent!
The frog rug is absolutely perfect 😍😍 sooo cute!
It's pretty cute! Definitely one of my favourite makes . Thanks for watching 💛
Oh my! I spotted a Dutchie sweater, hehe. I love the frog projects, thanks for sharing!
💛💛💛
It’s so pretty!!!❤
😂 Sorry to laugh but your dangerous winter weather looks like a normal day of a British summer, but your warmer😂 crazy world. I feel your pain and also the customers that missed out on your gorgeous makes. Was it your home made dyes that you stamped the chooks on socks..... Great idea. Love your vids, well chill me out, even when your stressing out to get things done. When is your next market? ✌️❤
Oh trust me, we got the winds later in the day, and it would have been a very challenging market! Chasing my stock flying away would have made for a terrible Sunday 😂😂 Next market will be in August and is thankfully indoors. Thank you so much for watching 💛💛
Ахаааа😂 так смеюсь. Английское лето - это страшное явление
Your videos always brighten my day! Love seeing your work and sorry to hear about the weather and market - have a good rest now ☂️🌈
Thank you so much! Hoping the next market is a lot calmer 💛
I really love your video filming style and vibes.
That's so nice to hear! Thank you 💛
Maaate my husband and I were planning to move to TAS at the end of the year until some other circumstances came up. Your videos absolutely fuel my desire to move down 😍
It's a pretty beaut place, especially in winter. Hope you make it down here! Thanks for watching 💛
I love that you use a typewriter for your cards! I'm sorry the market was cancelled, on the bright side that gives you time to work on more projects ☺️
It honestly makes creating all my cards/packaging so much more enjoyable! I love the thunk of the keys. Thank you for watching 💛
Hi, I adore this little top, where can I find the pattern? You did an amazing job.
Thank you so much! There's a link in the description 💛
New here... such nice discovery! thanks for your inspiring video!
Thanks for watching! 💛
He looks stupid. I love him.
😂😂😂
Oh my gosh! I NEED to make that frog rug! 😍
It's such a fun and easy make! I making another one for our bedroom 💛 thanks for watching!
Disgusting! 🤢🤮
that looks like crap
Обожаю смотреть обзоры таких магазинов! Спасибо! Какая теплая у вас зима
Thank you! It's mild. We get a bit of snow in some areas. It's the windchill that can be brutal! Thanks for watching 💛
That 't IJ sweater is a long way from home!! Can confirm that their craft beers are excellent. Perhaps the froggy hat could do with moving the eyes down lower and wider set to make it look more cute and less creepy? Since perhaps your head is not at child height and when you look down his eyes just...appear... (I do love it though, creepy and all)
I sampled them back in 2018! Not a bad drop at all 🍻 I've added a little mouth to the frog beanie. I think it 5 10% less creepy 😂 thanks for watching!
Absolutely LOVEEEE all of the frojects 😍 happy I found your page! This video was fantastic and you made so many cool things 😱❤️
Thank you so much!! I've got more frogjects coming up 💛
What a fun bunch of froggy projects !!! The rug is my favorite and I might have to make it !
It's so cute, I feel bad standing on the froggy face 😅 thanks for watching 💛
Secret frogject...
😂 my secret prog frojects 🐸
they're all sooo cute, but i will say i have a soft spot for Freddy! i might try and knit one for myself too 🐸 exited for part2!
Please do! I've found some great patterns for Part 2. Thank you for watching 💛
I flippin’ LOVE 🧡🧡🧡 that hat! Everything came out so fun but that hat wins all ties 😁
It's pretty dang cute!! Thank you for watching 💛
I like your vibe🤝
💛💛
Super fun makes!!! My favourite is the rug ❤
Thank you! I think it might be mine too 💛
Oooh, I have one of those!!!
I have a few of these and so does one of my grans xxx
I love that you're collecting them 💛 do you use them often? I'm very much thinking of going back for them!
We had the teapot and butter dish when we were growing up. UK 1980s
Adorable
Oh these are WONDERFULL! I adore the color pallet you chose for the hat. (Also that coriander for the road bit at the beginning made me physically recoil... I could NEVER😂)
Thank you so much! Haha coriander can be very divisive, I love it 💛
That reminds me of the 80s when I was young ☺️
