    Crochet

    I'm a sucker for crochet.
    I think it's a combination of mad colours and symmetry.

    Crochet-top storage stool (Rice via jeri's organising & decluttering)

    I've now bought two of these cushions
    from the very talented art & wool on made it

    My all-time favourite crochet tea-cosy is from Wendys Woollys
