Over on Kootoyoo, everyone is sharing their creative space. I recommend you having a read of Kirsty’s blog. She is a very crafty lady with lots to share. Her blog is jam-packed and she is very generous with sharing ideas.
My main craft is knitting and the beauty of this is that you can knit anywhere.
All I need is my knitting bag with wool, needles and my little house.

Here’s my favourite creative space – in the conservatory looking out onto the garden and watching the birds coming and going! 
Here’s what has been recently happening in my creative space and here’s where I find everyday inspiration.
I’ve recently been dejunking so my creative space is now all tidy in glass bookcases. I like to keep my wool supplies all tidy and protected from dust.

I love using wooden wine boxes and storing my wool in lidded baskets and also not to forget my gorgeous wooden trug for easy access of supplies!

Love your colourful blog – it’s great fun! Thankyou for visiting my little corner of ‘blogland’ in the Outer Hebrides : )
Thanks for the lovely feedback. I’ve never been to the Outer Hebrides, but it is definitely on my wishlist.
I love your creative space – so comfy. And I also love the pictures of the yarn. Yarn is so pretty – even before it is knit!
Thanks for your kind comments. I agree about yarn being so beautiful to look at even when not made into anything!
Oh, your creative space is SUBLIME! You have a conservatory? I’m so jealous, it looks like such a beautiful, calming place to knit. All that gorgeous yarn is to die for!
Looking forward to more posts about your creative pursuits!
Thank you for your lovely comments. Very kind.
Thank-you for your lovely comments about my creative space this week. So far my flickr account is mostly details of my actual studio if you would like to see it. I love your space with its windows and views. Your wool library is beautiful. I do not really knit but I fell recycled sweaters and felt designs so I am inspired by wool as a material.
While the yo-yo makers come with direction (which is what I used) this tutorial:http://www.lazygirldesigns.com/blog/?p=552 might prevent the learning pitfalls that I made. This tutorial could work if you want to make them without the Clover notion this blog:http://istitch.blogspot.com/2006/05/yo-yo-tutorial.html or this one: http://heatherbailey.typepad.com/photos/how_to_make_a_yoyo/index.html would be helpful. I find hand work with wool less exciting in the heat of an Ottawa summer, so the yo-yo’s are great and can make a perfect summer weight coverlet or blanket.
Hi Jenifir, thanks ever so much for all the links. I’ve never heard of yo-yos, but now feeling totally addicted to them and I haven’t even made one yet!
The tutorials are excellent and making a blanket has jumped to the top of my wish list now!
Thanks ever so much for taking the time out to explain more. I enjoyed looking through your flickr photos, what an exciting studio with so many interesting things. Felt designs is such a clever invention for recyling old sweaters. Betz White is the Queen of felting in my view! I’ll keep you posted on yo-yo progress!
Those yarns are divine.
As colourful as your blog!
Thanks for dropping by.
Your conservatory looks like a lovely space to create. I am very impressed with how organised your yarns are.
