Does anyone have the contact details of the person doing the crochet? Or shall I put a note through the front door of the house with the distinctive front garden, and hope it’s the right address?!

Fantastic - I was sad to see they had gone the other day, but looks like they were taken in and then updated for the season :slight_smile:

They are so lovely. The person/s who made them certainly has a talent. Although I used to be a prolific knitter, (not able to now due to rheumatoid arthritis) I could never get the hang of crocheting. :blush:

Yes we will have to see! Does anyone know who makes them?

I can crochet … but I can’t knit (I never could work out what to do if I dropped a stitch or needed to correct anything). We could have made a good team!

Not sure I have spelt that right!
