Projects & Side Quests

This is where the little ideas that became rather bigger ideas live. There will be flowers, yarn, walks and whatever else catches my attention along the way.

The Wildflower Quest

Sixty British wildflowers, a year of looking properly and plenty of reasons to get out for a walk. I’m learning to recognise the plants I used to pass without knowing their names, one discovery at a time.

From flowers to crochet

A colour palette for each flower and the idea of making a crochet square to remember it by. This is the place for the yarn choices, experiments and eventual blanket as they take shape.

Small adventures

Nature reserves, familiar paths seen with new eyes and days out with a little purpose: find something, notice something, learn something. Preferably with a cup of tea somewhere along the way.

Other things on the table

There is room here for crochet, Lego, plants, history and any other side quest that refuses to stay in its own lane. I’ll add links as the stories appear.

Hello, I’m Merry

I’m getting outside, making things and finding my way back to writing.

Wildflowers, small adventures and a slightly ridiculous potato. Side quests welcome.
