Introduction | Mother of Purl is a 30-something working mum, living in rural Oxfordshire, England. In her very limited spare time she can mostly be found engrossed in needlecrafts, wading in mud at her allotment or scouring her local charity shops for mid-century treasure. This blog is named both after her two little girls and her love of gardening and knitting. It records her daily attempts to live family life to the full on little more than a shoe-string, a bit of imagination, a wing and a prayer. |
Interests | knitting, gardening, grow your own, allotments, sewing, car boot sales, charity shops, embroidery, thrifty living, sleeping, radio 4, school governor, cider, cheese, tea, scrabble, pyrex, permaculture, bushcraft |
