Curious Handmade with Helen Stewart
Today I'm talking about What's in the WIP?, Selvedge Spring Fair in Londontown and the Fireflies Rising knit along. I'm feeling a bit tired and wondering if it might be the weather? That last comment is a reference to this Australian TV advert from the 80's which I'm finding hilarious and being a bit nostalgic.
