Mrs G Makes Hello and welcome to Mrs G Makes!

I'm a lover of all things crafty and on this page you'll be able to follow my adventures and creations in the world of yarn, beads, fabric and who knows what else!

A lifetime ago, back in 2021, I was interviewed by Gayle from Woolswap for her YouTube channel. Little did either of us expect to ever get the opportunity to meet in person. But today, more than five years later we did just that.

It was like meeting up with an old friend and yet another reminder of the positive side of social media.

We had a lovely wander around Elizabeth Quay in Perth, before settling on somewhere for lunch. We talked and talked and talked. About how life has changed for us both over the intervening years (for the better, I hasten to add) but mostly about our fabric and yarn stash 😆

Then I jumped back on the complimentary ’Purple Cat Bus’ and headed back to my brother’s house.

Today really has been another very good day 💜 I even did a spot of sock knitting on the bus ride, being very careful not to miss my stop! 🇦🇺🦘🧶

I arrived in Perth, WA last Sunday and I am having THE most relaxing, yet at the same time exhausting (how is that even possible?) time.

My sister-in-law and I visited a fabulous shop today, where I think I was pretty restrained! I have some new yarn to make socks as a reminder of this wonderful adventure and a new skein of yarn requires a new project bag. Surely that’s obvious? Yes?

G’day! I’ve packed my crochet and even some knitting, for my latest solo adventure down under!

I’m currently sat at Heathrow airport, waiting to board my flight to Perth and as always, I’m super excited! It has nothing to do with the glass of Prosecco I’m sipping before 11am. Honestly 😉

However, it’s a whole 17 years since I last visited Australia, waaaaay before I’d picked up a crochet hook and become addicted to buying hand-dyed yarn.

So, I really need your help! Can any locals recommend a knit and natter group in central Perth? Or any other yarny (or non yarny) adventures I should hunt out during the three weeks I’m there, visiting my brother and his family?

I promise to share any yarn-related discoveries with you all!

I’ll check in again soon 🐨🇦🇺🌏🦘

I’m so happy to have my Autumn decorations out on display again. It must mean it’s almost time for us yarny folk to start wearing all our handmade hats, scarves and gloves!

Our season has finally arrived! 😂

Having said that, today has been super sunny 😬😯😆🤔

Yes! The September parcels are on their way! There’s just four slots left if you haven’t signed up for the Swarovski Stitch Marker Club and all the details can be found in my Etsy store.

This will be your last chance to sign up until November, as my shop will be temporarily closing next week whilst I head off on a little adventure.

I’m leaving my Executive Assistant, Amy, in charge of dispatching the October parcels - so you know you’ll be in safe hands 🥰

Have a yarntastic weekend! 🧶💜

I’ve just uploaded to my Etsy shop the remaining Halloween stock of amigurumi pins - I know a few people have asked for the white ghosts and I’ll get those as soon as I can. But it possibly won’t be until November as my shop will be closed in October.

But more news on that soon!

Oh. And happy Monday my fabulous yarny peeps!!

Hellooo! I’m still here, beavering away behind the scenes 🥰

I’d better get packed for The Crochet Sanctuary Ltd ™️ weekend though 😂

Here’s a little sneaky peek at some new amigurumi pins I’ll be bringing with me - they’re rather fun, don’t you think? 🎃👻🦇

It’s an early start here in the Mrs G HQ making up orders from the weekend 💜☕️🦉

Making stitch markers will always have my heart, but these new ami pins make me smile so much 🥰

Enormous thanks to everyone who placed an order during my ‘celebration of Amy’s success’ sale 🎉💜

One lucky person received a total refund on their order thanks to our mystery benefactor 💜 and they also sent over some extra funds for Amy to have Starbucks treat! I really do have the best Mrs G friends 🥰

Orders will be posted out over the next few days and then I need to prepare for my upcoming pop up shop at the September Crochet Sanctuary 🎃👻💀
