Today is Thursday (in case you needed reminding) and at 8pm we #clapforourcarers and #clapforthenhs •
I’m truly hoping that some good is going to come out of this pandemic, for the good of the @nhs •

Collectively, we have learnt that we can survive without putting ourselves at risk and without putting further strain on our wonderful Public Health Service. The NHS is not a charity, and while clapping, and donating to it is good, we should create habits out of the actions that we develop during this pandemic.
•
- We have realised that we don’t need to get a prescription for basic over the counter medicines, like paracetamol- at a cost of approximately £3 to the NHS vs. 19p if you were to buy at @superdrug - We have realised that Walk-In centres are not day care centres during half term (true story told by me at my local walk in) because parents don’t know what to do with their children.
- We have realised that Friday nights can be better spent at home watching repeats on TV rather than popping into A&E for a change of scenery (another true story)
•
What we have ultimately realised, as a nation, is that we need to prioritise what we use the NHS for, to avoid further strain on its limited resources. It is NOT a charity and it’s survival depends on the way WE use it. So many departments are underfunded because funds are allocated to other, more seemingly “needy” ones, which means that prescribing paracetamol puts Mental Health services further down the list of funding recipients.
•
Every time you clap on a Thursday, think how you can make the way you use the NHS better for the wider public. Use services provided such as dialling 111 before camping out at A&E with diarrhoea.
•
Thank you NHS workers, carers and key workers for everything you do, then, now, and going forward. 💙

My friends at @birdandblendtea have sent me a HUGE box of my favourite teas to share with you all! (Check out my stories to see said box)
•
I will be popping a few tea bags in with every physical order from my @etsyuk shop, or my blog shop, from now until I run out... which given that theyve sent me a lot of Strawberry Lemonade tea 🍓 🍋 might not be long! (It’s my favourite hot OR cold!)
•
If you’ve forgotten, I sell super cute fibre-related pin badges, and will hopefully be adding more to my repertoire soon.
•
Link is in my bio for either of the shops. Prepare to discover your new favourite tea! It’s perfect to have with a little lockdown homebaking (see banana bread!) 🍌 •

What have I done?
•
My life is now all consumed by rainbows. Ever think something is a good idea, and then half way through you wonder why you even started? I definitely have a love-hate relationship with these little window hangings, but I must admit, it is satisfying to post them off to their new homes when they’re finished...
•
Hopefully next week I’ll be ready to blitz through my pattern test for @madebyjori and finish off my sample shawl for @madscientistyarns - that all depends on whether or not I’ve drowned in a colourful pool of my own creation...
•
At least A enjoyed throwing rainbows at me for these photos. I couldn’t resist sharing another! •

So excited my amazing hand dyed beauties arrived from @madscientistyarns
You might remember on my stories that I couldn’t decide between a light pink or black and crazy colourway for my Breeze Racerback by @jessssiemae so I decided on both!
•
I just need to get through all my rainbows and then I can crack on- I am TOO EXCITED. I’ve developed a real love of knitting lately- who even am I?!

ITS FRI-YAY!!!! 🌈 ❤️
•
I’m about 30% through my rainbow orders this week and I am slightly regretting taking on commissions because I didn’t think they’d be so popular! I’m 100 rainbows deep and have a love/hate relationship with all things rainbow 😂
•
There is now yarn EVERYWHERE in the house because all the snipped off ends keep sticking to me and I carry them around the house and malt them off en route.
•
Swipe to see the not-so-cute reality of my bedroom photoshoot, and swipe again to see my accidental best impression of @ponderandply (who is QUEEN of the RAWR face 😂)

Little commissions are what’s getting me through right now, and I love that they’re little rainbows! 🌈 •
