  • Well there’s a solution…

    Seeing as I’m such a meanie (by saying we need to wait a second for the menu to load), my son… the youngest mumbler in the family, is ‘phoning the circus’ to appeal to them about it using my cordless phone. As you do. As they are the strict and supreme authority for Pingu… I dont know what they have…

  • Here Be Dragons

    I’ve always loved dragons.  The concept of them.  How the fact that they’re largely mystical leaves it totally up to your imagination as to what they look like. In late 2012, I began developing a dragon hat, in response to many requests from my fans.  What I came up with was a rainbow dragon, which became an instant hit. Not…

  • Comfort Blankets

    You know those times when for no reason at all, you feel fragile? You don’t wanna go out, you don’t wanna talk to anyone, you just wanna stay in and be by yourself?  Well, in those times, I have a comfort blanket “thing”. Not that I have a specific blanket I go to personally.  I just make a particular kind…

  • Unable to Sleep

    The bad part about insomnia is the not sleeping. It’s the bit where you want to sleep with all your might. Because sleep is delicious, replenishing, wonderful.  Because your whole body is heavy and aching to float away on a peaceful slumbering cloud. Being awake when you crave sleep sucks. Crocheting helps. It helps you not punch the bugger next…

  • Giraffes Can’t Dance.

    Mumble is currently of the opinion that when she grows up she might quite like to be a giraffe.  Which I think is a fabulous idea.  Much better than being an astronaut or merchant banker, I suppose. We’ve even been lucky enough to see some in real life when we visited the animal park at Christmas and this has reaffirmed…

  • World Book Day 2014

    Yes, I know it’s world book day. And Yes, Mumble is dressing up for world book day. And thank you to the several people who have inboxed me to find out why there is no Mumblicious Costume in your news feeds or inboxes. You haven’t missed anything. WordPress, Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest, Facebook, Smallest Mumbler or anyone else hasn’t eaten any…

  • A Monster of Awesome Proportions

    According to Wikipedia: Cthulhu is a cosmic entity that first appeared in the short story “The Call of Cthulhu”, published in the pulp magazine Weird Tales in 1928. The character was created by writer H. P. Lovecraft. A while back I was approached by a wonderful friend, asking for help locating a pattern, or if I would be able to write one for aparticular “crazy hat”.  She showed me a photo…

  • Sneaky Peeky

    It’s been a while since I’ve shared a sneaky peeky… More coming on Friday 7th March when all can be revealed 😛 *GIGGLES LOUDLY*
