Very much not a tutorial, but hopefully a fun (and slightly clueless) journey into my first attempt at historical costuming. ► Tutorials I think this is the tutorial I used originally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Jwtc5E4thc I also recently found this tutorial that was more specific for Outlander: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKfGtkrBKVU Important note: you can just stick with the tutorials and not do any of the amends I did over the course of this video, so don't let that put you off! If you want a less 'hole-y' look, size down your crochet hook. ► Yarn used: Hayfield Bonus with Wool Aran 400g in 872 Barley (used it all!)

I'm Sanne. Ten years ago, after finishing my English Language and Culture MA, I moved from the Netherlands to London where I'm currently working as a Social Media freelancer and Event Host in Publishing. I've documented my journey in publishing, my life in London and of course my favourite book recommendations (which include anything Gothic, classic and historical with a dash of sci-fi). Besides reading, I now spend a lot of my time discovering literary locations around the UK, sketching outdoors and trying out new crafts. If you're looking for creative and literary inspiration, you're in the right place! ► My Book Club Journal https://bit.ly/BookClubJournal (ad, affiliate link) I created this beautiful journal for anyone who is in a book club or wants to track their reading.
