My Tiny Hoop 1 pattern is live! A beautiful piece of textile artwork that knits up in around an hour. It combines short rows, lace stitches and open space to make a gorgeous piece of hoop art. Using less than 30m of laceweight yarn, this is perfect for using up odds and ends from a larger lace project. I’ve always thought of lace knitting as an art form. A light and delicate shawl with complex stitch pattern, knitted with skill over many hours, certainly seems to meet the definition of artwork- it’s juts wearable too. I’m taking this a little bit further with my Tiny Hoop series and delving into the world of fibre arts. I’ve used Meadow Yarn’s Bray Lace for this piece, in colourway “A Whisper Woven Through It”, it’s a handdyed silk mohair blend that I also used for my Suilven Cowl. The shine of the silk and halo of mohair is the perfect yarn for showing off the delicate lace stitches. Any laceweight yarn would work well though! I’m all for a bit of anti-consumerism and this is a great pattern for using up what you’ve already got in your stash. Here's all the pattern details for this knitted masterpiece: Suggested Yarn: Meadow Yarn Bray Lace (72% Mohair, 28% Silk ) 420 m/460 yds per 50 g skein: Colourway: A Whisper Woven Through It Meterage: 25 m Yardage: 27 yds Dimensions To fit 10 cm/4” embroidery hoop.

For property owners who live far from their rental property, hiring a property management company can be especially beneficial. The company handles all in-person tasks such as property inspections, maintenance, and tenant communication.

The strips contain rows of sharp nails that grip the carpet, holding it in place once it’s stretched into position. This tool allows for precise installation, ensuring that the carpet remains tightly in place without slipping.

The tour takes you into an environment that feels untouched, vast, and peaceful. Even though there's a rush of adrenaline during dune rides, the tour also provides slower, reflective moments where you can just breathe and take in the desert’s beauty.
