Author: Sarah

I'm an author, freelance writer, knitting designer and crafter. I've had many letters published in national magazine's and I've had articles published in Best of British and Woman Alive magazines. I'm a keen knitter and design a lot of my own patterns - especially toys and bags as these are my passions! I also crochet, sew, cook and I dabble in a few other craft-related things. I've recently opened my own Etsy store where you can purchase handmade items created by me. The link is on the main page of this website.
