Randi is a tiny unicorn who turned into our team mascot (our team name at the time being Research and Insight, hence RandI). I don’t remember why exactly but I was happy for it to happen.

A small toy unicorn lying on a table. While many unicorns are majestic, glittery creatures, this one is knitted; its body is the shape of a bar of soap, its legs splay out on the table, but his mane is fabulous and made of yarn in orange, blue, and purple.

    I’ve already written a little about the souping-up of my craft tracking, and I wanted to add now that it’s already starting to provide useful insights. One of the main reasons I wanted to start it was to help with project planning, mostly by making sure that the things I make are actually going to get worn consistently, both because I like the shape and the colour. ...

    A few months ago I wandered into town of a weekend, just to have a bit of a poke around the shops. And what should I find in the main shopping centre? A surprise craft fair. Now, while I’m no hoarder, I do try not to buy yarn for which I have no specific project in mind; but it seemed rude not to buy something given they’d set up a whole fair specifically to delight me on that particular day. ...

    In my monthly perusal of The Knitter (courtesy of my local elibrary, blessings be upon them) I came across Saltburn (rav link), a long-ish gansey-style jumper with a fun textured pattern of diamonds and zigzags. I’d recently snagged some nice tweedy yarn in a delightful shade of mustard yellow that needed something textured, but not too textured, and so I thought this might fit the bill. ...

    Part of my never-ending quest to get my stash to actually fit into the four boxes it’s supposed to. I’ve had a stash of multicoloured acrylic yarn lying around for years; so long I can barely remember the project I bought it for. A couple of years back I realised that some of the colours went together surprisingly well and made some pompoms out of them, as part of my quest to spark more joy. ...

    I’ve written before about how I started to incorporate the suggestions from Joyful into my home; rearranging furniture so I can always see the sky, making sure I have some kind of greenery in my eye-line no matter where I’m sitting, creating visual harmony by ordering my bookshelves by colour, and so on. I’d also been introducing more yellow into my home as an instant mood-lifter, but only small elements in patterns on duvet sets and e.g. my bee embroidery. I wanted more, and what better way to do that than with a huge, cosy, bright yellow blanket. ...
