Stitch 'n' Bitch

Working in a charity shop has many advantages, one of them being behind the scenes of a lovely welcoming shop. Round the back is where all the action happens! It's fascinating seeing all the things people no longer want, masses of donations come through the door every week and one item in a large donation was a knitting book but it was no ordinary knitting book, it was a knitting book called Stitch 'n' Bitch.


Wow what a fun and hilarious book it is! It is aimed at young people written in a manner they will truly find amusing and hopefully, engaging them in new projects with a talent that is almost lost to society. Though, it is encouraging to see more people around the same age as I wearing knitted garments they have made.

Debbie Stoller, I salute you!

I was so keen to knit something from this book, I started with something small; A phone sock, which I then adapted to have a button hole and an oversized button to make up for the little phone I have!


Then with all the odd bits of wool left over from other projects, I made a whacky neck scarf!


Such fun!
