Apart from wartime, no New Zealand Prime Minister has faced the challenges Jacinda Ardern has handled. And certainly none has had to govern through the kind of deranged abuse and threat to which she has been subject in the past two years.

Got my hands on the latest @pompommag and honestly I think it is the best yet. Every page made me gasp with excitement. I want to knit it all! *swoon*

I ordered some @CascadeYarns for a very special project I am about to start. It arrived today and I was a bit surprised - and dismayed - to notice is it made in China. Did we know this?
Had a fabulous few days in Edinburgh. I brought home this massive haul of mostly-local yarns. Mmmmm.
Can Leah go home for being obnoxious? #SewingBee

I’m quite chuffed I found a little time on Sunday to cast on a new project. Some Wendy D Johnson socks on @HollandRoadYarn Don’t you love that new project feeling? ❤️😊
How utterly lovely to return to London after a fabulous month in New Zealand to discover a parcel waiting for me from @knitsch and Holland Rd Yarn. This little project bag is adorable. Thanks Tash!

I’m a little bit chuffed with my spontaneous haul from @wandwoolly this morning. The yarn on the left is 30% nettles! I’m totally in love with the vivid green of the other. Time to hunker down and get knitting. Can we pretend this kind of shopping counts as #selfcare 🤣😂😝😂

I had a wonderful - but brief - visit to @allyouknitislov in Barcelona on Saturday. The lovely owner showed me all kinds of beautiful local yarn. I left with armloads! Looking forward to the next visit.
