Addicted To Periscope

So I have recently discovered periscope. It is so addictive and so many different things on there to watch. From life coaches craft lessons to make up tutorials and more. 

I am going to start broadcasting very soon might even pluck up the courage and do one today! I podcast on YouTube but that can be edited and isn’t live!! A lot of people have told me the longer you leave it and worry about it the worst it will be. 

I have had lots of help so far on there with planning diary for work. This is why I am now blogging again. I have made time in my diary to make sure it gets done. 

If you aren’t on periscope you should be! If so then add me and I will check out your scopes I am @peggymay_ same as on Twitter 

  

Yarn glorious yarn

Yarn! My favourite thing. I have posted some more hand dyed yarns in my etsy shop and my website too.

Getting lots of inspiration on Instagram would love you to all follow me there too http://instagram.com/peggymayyarns/

I will be recording a podcast to go onto YouTube this week eeeek!! Hope you all watch it will let you know details when it’s done. Will feature my knitting and yarn of course

What are you all making at the moment?

New year time

So yes it is New Year’s Eve again. I can’t say I won’t be happy 2014 is over. It’s been a strange year full of ups and downs and I will be glad to start a fresh.

The whole house has been unwell recently so a fresh start is definitely what we need.

2014 was a good year in some ways it’s not all bad. I’m so lucky to connect with someone again that I has missed for over two years. We also moved into our lovely home. We got our little dog Rolo too. I also decided to home educate my two sons.

The next year is going to be about doing what I love and progressing with my hand dyed yarn business and social media and virtual assistant business.

I’m very proud of my eldest son and his YouTube career too.

I hope you all have a great new year and I’m not going to put resolutions on here as I am just happy for a fresh new start.

Lush haul

I was lucky enough to receive a box full of lush goodies recently. So perfect time to do a haul. We don’t live very close to a lush store so was lovely to receive this.

I had the wizard bath bomb, the pumpkin bath bomb, Lord of Misrule bath bomb, yellow sparkler and snow glitter.

I must admit the glitter you put on after a bath wasn’t for me so I gave this to my nieces. It was a citrus smell and I didn’t like the glitter as I got out of the bath. Good for a night out I think.

The pumpkin one was fab and was used on halloween night even my 8 year old liked this one.

The wizard one was cool but not as many bright colours as I expected.

Lord of Misrule well what can I say! It turned the bath black! Then it started cracking very clever. My son had a bath in this one as he thought it looked awesome.

The yellow sparkler was great and gave the bath a lovely colour and smelt amazing. Loved the sparkles in this one too.

Will definitely be ordering more lush. What’s your favourite one? Let me know in the comments.

It’s almost Halloween!

The last few weeks have been so hectic! Time flies as it’s almost Halloween.

I’ve been knitting loads and using my favourite Starbucks cup to provide me with my daily dose of coffee to keep me going.

I also received my parcel from the lovely miss Elle knits from ravelry as part of a swap we did. She got me everything I love. The little doll sits on my desk in my room.

I’ve also been working on orders for some celeb clients including Laura Whitfield and josh Bennett of seven dwarves fame. They are so lovely and it’s been a pleasure working with them.

I have also just finished a beautiful infinity scarf in cranberry for miss budget beauty. She is also lovely as you should all check out her blog and YouTube channels.

My autumn/winter 2014 photo shoot is complete and the next post will have pics of all the designs.

Keep warm everyone

Time to feel better

So the sickness bugs have hit the house. I’m hoping it will not be the first of many.

The book I’m currently reading is fault in our stars by John green thank you to my niece Heidi for lending it to me. Not reading it as quick as I hoped because of the sickness but what I have so far it’s been great! I can see why it got such good reviews. I want to read gone girl next that also looks great and I’ve seen the film is coming out for it too.

I had rolo the puppy looking after me while I was poorly he couldn’t understand why I couldn’t go on our daily walks together.

I started to feel better about a week ago but been making a conscious effort of eating better. Natural yoghurt granola and grapes are my favourite at the moment.

Hope you are all well fit and healthy. I plan to start vlogging in October over on YouTube so hope you will all watch me over there too.

Is it feeling like Christmas to you too?

New designs

so the new designs are being made as we speak! Very busy trying to finish all these exciting new designs and a twist on some of the old ones too.

Photo shoot is being planned and organised and the collection will be available fully from the end of October. All ready for Christmas and those winter months

Loving keeping my designs in my masato bag

Me again

So I’m here again. Today has been a busy day shopping, getting tickets to see a medium, taking the kids to macdonalds and ordering wool for new designs. Oh yes and won an award for another business I run.

Yes it’s been a busy day so far and it’s not been over yet.

Who believes in mediums? I have seen several over the years and I do believe in spirits and have been told I’m very spiritual too. I would love to know what you all think.

Can’t wait to get started on some new designs I’m hoping the wool will be here very soon so I can make a start as the photo shoot will be very soon.

Would you like to see behind the sciences video and pics of the photo shoot? Let me know.

All change!

Wow this blog has been neglected and I’m sorry to my followers here!

But.. I’m back. It has been all change here I have been designing my new autumn winter collection. It’s going to be all about the chunky knits this season.

So let me let you all know what’s happening and has happened .. Within the time I haven’t blogged, I have redecorated a house in less than two weeks and moved out including flooring for the whole place too. Within this time my auntie died suddenly so that was a great shock to us all. This was a very hard time for us and in some ways I am glad of the distraction of a new house. I am so grateful for all my family that helped me I couldn’t have done it without them.

My daughter has turned 17 years old and yes I feel very old now!! My niece has been accepted into uni which I am very proud of she has such a bright future ahead of her.

My niece is also one of my models and her younger sister this time is also going to be modelling for me. Very exciting!!

So I’m knitting like crazy finishing off designs. Planning YouTube videos. Tutorials and vlogs coming soon too. Which I hope you all watch.

Ok I think that’s all for now. Probably forgot so much to tell you all but I will be blogging more so will be able to tell you more as I remember.
