Long overdue, I’m finally sharing with you the amazing experience I had at the ‘I Can Make Shoes’ workshop in London this past summer. During a 3 day course, I was able to create a pair of shoes start to finish and they’re without a doubt my proudest make of 2018!

I know this comes a bit out of season but here it is. A post dedicated to my first knitting project, a simple scarf.
