Something different.
This blanket is based on the temperatures of 1957 in a small town in Northamptonshire..

Some blankets keep you warm.
Some blankets tell your story. 💙
I create handmade temperature blankets based on the daily temperatures from a special year in your life — a birth year, wedding year, anniversary, baby’s first year, memorial year, or any meaningful occasion.
Each row represents a day’s temperature, turning memories and history into a one-of-a-kind crochet keepsake. No two blankets are ever the same.
✨ Completely handmade
✨ Custom colour palettes available
✨ Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries & family gifts
✨ A beautiful way to preserve memories
This blue blanket was created using historic temperatures and carefully crocheted row by row. Every shade represents a different temperature range from that year.
If you’d like a custom temperature blanket made for someone special, send me a message and we can start designing yours. 💕

🛥️ Hard at work on the waterways! 🌊
​It has been an absolute whirlwind of a day. We’ve successfully moved the boat down to Boxmoor to get ready for the big Floating Market this bank holiday weekend! 🎉
​But the work didn't stop when we tied up. I’ve spent the rest of the day glued to the laptop and notebook, tackling the paperwork and were getting the website beautifully user-friendly for you all. 💻✨
​A bit of physical labor, a lot of brainpower, and plenty of sweet details to sort out. Who is coming down to see us at Boxmoor this weekend? Let me know in the comments! 👇🍬

​Looking back at how far things have come—from the first bead I ever wove to the latest crochet project off the hook—I’m feeling incredibly lucky. Whether you’ve followed my writing journey, commissioned a handmade gift, or stopped by the shop for something sweet, you’ve played a part in making this dream a reality.
​As the sun starts to stay out longer, I am so ready for the magic of the summer months ahead. Thank you for being part of this wild, creative journey. I can't wait to see you all out on the towpath!

I’ve been busy working on another project recently. I know this page is mostly about sweets, but there’s so much more that I do that many people don’t know about — and today I felt like sharing a little of that with you all. 🧶

I’ve been crocheting a historic temperature blanket for the birth year of 1957. This is the second one I’ve made, and I’m about to start a couple more!
For these blankets, I research the temperatures for the entire year and create the design using overlay mosaic crochet. Every colour tells part of the story of that year, which makes each blanket completely unique.

This beautiful blanket has now left me and started its journey to the Isle of Wight. A huge thank you to Dawn Wilson for: 1️⃣ Helping show just how long this beautiful blanket really is!
2️⃣ Taking it safely over to the island for me.

Now onto the next two blankets — which I’ll be working on together! 😊
