Summer in Europe - prepare for a harsh winter
As discussed at some length in yesterday's blog the UK summer has seen high temperatures, high inflation and a cost of living crisis. There are forecasts of winter blackouts due to the price of gas and electricity. Currently, the UK is reporting that our electricity costs 4 times as much as our gas.

Past projects
Present projects:
Over summer and throughout autumn I will be making each member of my family a blanket for winter. This is mostly based on crochet treble stitch (UK).
