One of the best things I love about London is the likelihood of bumping into events that would never venture out into Australia. A good example is Bust’s Craftacular, a DIY craft market sponsored by my favourite magazine that finally expanded across the Atlantic and held its first London Craftacular this year. Held in a… Continue reading Bust Craftacular and the week that was

It’s Saturday and flowers make me happy
day0070.jpg Originally uploaded by mirvettium Especially tulips, hyacinths and jonquils… I’m all for the bulbs. APEC came and went, and I even missed the half heartedmooning attempt during the long weekend. In any case, the extra day was absorbed fairly quickly into the rest of the weekend and I can hardly believe that it’s the… Continue reading It’s Saturday and flowers make me happy
The week so far
ZF02.jpg Originally uploaded by mirvettium Extra short week since I’ve taken Wednesday and Friday off. Today to cram the exam for ADMA and Friday, just because.

For reasons I still don’t understand, I will be at the first Sydney Writer’s Festival zine fair with a few copies of Sharp and Pointy. If I see you, I’ll see you!

Epany came back for our usual S N B meet up at the Manly Wharf after 4 months in the bush in South Australia, just as I was about to shelve the… Continue reading Knitting in the northern beaches
On all things crafty
There are a lot of great free and inspiring crafty sites on the internet, whether it’s knitting, crotchet or craft in general. I can now add Burda style to the growing list. It’s started by Burda, the pattern / fashion company, but they have actually gone a step further and created an open source for… Continue reading On all things crafty
Do Not Fuck With Me
Do Not F… Originally uploaded by Onion. First day at work, and three weeks worth of effort in acquiring sanity was slowly shredded by the minute. In truth, work was not too bad today, but the sense of anxiety that came with my 9 to 5 existence rushed back with a vengeance. That, I can… Continue reading Do Not Fuck With Me
Fandom Knits
presented 002 Originally uploaded by hellebelle. I hate packing, so it’s no surprise that in between last minute cleaning / chucking things to clean / pack I ended up in front of the computer. I did manage to find a really cool ljgroup with a big list of fandom related knits. It doesn’t beat craftster… Continue reading Fandom Knits
