Do you Zentangle…?

Hello! 

It's the first week of July and what glorious week it has been!

Zentangle?!   Do You Zentangle...?   What the heck is Zentangle you ask...?!

Zentangle is a delightful, mindful practice developed by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, here is their Zentangle website.

Zentangle was one of the fabulous Weekly Art Challenges of BeCause Movement on Instagram. By Noula Diamantopoulo  artist, psychotherapist, author and generous, lovely human being who makes this world a better place!   

I love to Zentangle! It is fast, easy, and super fun! Seriously... give it a try

Learn to Make This Arm Knitted Wool Scarf

Holy Moly it is a chilly morning...! Now, I love to be toasty warm, I mean really toast warm! I love scarfs... I love natural fibres... I also love that when we express the essence of who we are, by wearing a fabulous scarf you have handmade for instance, it brings such joy to the day.⠀
⠀
So if this luxurious wool arm knitted scarf, yup... knitted using only my arms, no needles, makes you feel super excited then lets get together for one of the up coming arm knitting workshops. I will teach you how to make this gorgeous, warm scarf that you can wear home and may never want to take off. ⠀
