Eastwood, Kate: - Kate Eastwood was taught to knit as a child, by her mother, but seven years ago she decided to teach herself how to crochet. Since then she has shared her love of all things crochet on Instagram @just_pootling (where she has over 50,000 followers), and on her blog, justpootling.blogspot.co.uk. Kate is the author of Crocheted Wreaths and Crocheted Home (both CICO Books), and also designs projects for lovecrafts.com and Simply Crochet magazine. She lives near Bath with her husband and their two Weimaraners.
