Hello and welcome to Katie Writes Stuff, where I write stuff so you can read stuff. We're all about old-fashioned fun around here. This is a place where a good time involves a daytrip to the country to visit op shops and photograph all of the things, followed by an evening spent knitting or sewing garments from vintage patterns. Settle in, grab a scone and a cuppa and enjoy reading along.
You can also follow my vintage knitting and sewing adventures on my YouTube channel.
