Hello

Thank you for looking at my blog. My latest passion is applique which I have been doing since 2015. I love making things and learning new crafts On this blog you will see some of the things I have been working on. You will also see wonderful items created by other people. When I am not crafting I enjoy being with family and friends, singing and family history. My favourite place in the whole world is anywhere by the sea and I have to get my fix every few weeks. My favourite colour is PURPLE but I love turquoise too!

Kerry Roots

The jumper for Sam is finished. It is knitted in wool from Scandinavia in honour of his grandfathers Viking roots. It was knitted in Kerry -  in Dingle, in Killarney, and finished in Sneem with a tiny dash of West Cork added for good measure. The Kerry connection is to remember his grandmothers Carmody/Murphy roots. And finally I took a photo of it in Boolananave near Sneem as that is where my great grandmother Ellen Clifford is from.

I hope he enjoys wearing it.
