about me

Hello and welcome to my blog!

I knit, I sew, and I love all things vintage. This is where I write about such things.

There’s a fair amount here about what inspires me, and a bit about what I do when I’m not at home being crafty. My day job is as a museum professional working on creating major exhibitions at the UK’s largest museum. When I get time I’m working on a number of vintage-inspired knitting patterns and I’ll share them as I progress.

I’m also currently planning a major de-modernisation of my 1920s home. The idea is to take it back more or less to how it would have looked when it was built. I say ‘more or less’ because I’m not prepared to forgo my washing machine or fridge! I’ll be writing about my research, inspiration and how the project goes.
