Hey everyone well now it’s a new year I’d thought I’d reintroduce myself to all you newbies out there 🙌🏼

⭐️My name is Jo, I’m 52 and I live in Barnsley with my husband and daughter, I also have 2 older sons and a granddaughter plus my gorg daughter in law Kate 💕

⭐️my business evolved really just before lockdown as before that I worked as a medical secretary but due to Covid and no childcare I decided I was going to teach myself how to crochet and also start selling the things that I had previously knitted for fun ⭐️

⭐️learning how to crochet wasn’t as easy as I thought it’s a completely different ball game go knitting which I’ve been doing since I was about 7, but after hundreds of hours of YouTube videos I finally mastered it and if truth be told it’s my favourite 😝

⭐️I’m a great procrastinator and spend lots of time worrying if I’m doing the right thing as you know it’s a lonely world out there being a sole trader, but this year after deciding to give my absolute all I’m nit doing that anymore 😳

⭐️I also decided last year to start selling yarn and this has gone good so far and my Etsy shop has really taken off (it’s hard work though) 😂

So that’s just a little bit about me Ang what I’m doing right now, can’t wait to see what your all up to this year and PLEASE come say hi 🙌🏼🩷

Another day another gorgeous cardigan 🦄

This time I used the Baby Poet Cardigan rather than the Indy Cardigan that I used last time as this one doesn’t have buttons 🩷

It’s definately a favourite at the moment 🙌🏻

Pattern: @littlegoldennook
Yarn: Paintbox yarn @lovecraftscom

Had to try this 😂

If life was a Netflix documentary having to explain yourself as to why you are starting another new project when you have so many to also finish 😂😂

Have you tried this trend ??? 📺 taken in South Yorkshire by @blushandblue01
