So hi! I’m Sarah and I live in Jersey. The proper one. Near France.
I started crafting 16 years ago at the lovely age of 18 when I worked for the NHS as a care assistant. I worked with a nurse who did the most amazing cross stitch ever and I wanted to learn.
So I cross stitched on and off for a few years, made some family presents. Then I had three kids and didn’t really have time.
Started Knitting
I started knitting 3 and a bit years ago after spraining my ankle and needing surgery. As someone who is always on the go I needed to do something before I went crazy. So I started knitting and discovered my love of hats.
A few years (and quite a lot of hats and cardigans later) my sister in law introduced me to crochet. Which I discovered I really quite like to make bags and blankets using crochet!
Learning something new
From there I have also recently acquired a sewing machine so I am now starting to make my own clothes as well.
The name of my shop comes from the phrase ‘don’t have more children than you have hands for’. I have three ranging from 4-12 so I am totally outnumbered!
In the future I am hoping to become a better and more creative knitter, crocheter and way better sewer!
So that’s it from me. Thanks for reading
