  • This week we've got adventure, coffee and crochet !! First we're off to Perth and Kinross in the heart of Scotland to see some of the sights. We visit the amazing folly of Kinnoull Hill Tower, and the imposing one on Binn Hill.
    There's also a trip to the village of Abernethy where we try to get a look inside their old round tower.
    And there's an update on the hexi-cardigan.. if you know, you know :)

    We make our own music using GarageBand and the videos are edited in iMovie.

      The Binn Hill one is really impressive. Be a great wee fixer-upper.

    Lovely video that had a bit of everything in it! Woodland walking, DeNiro, history, graveyards, a good coffee shop and Becks - I LOVED your cardigan! I'm going to have a go at that!

    Wow! Gorgeous!
    Hard to keep your vehicle clean when it’s always raining. What I do is clean the rims and dress the tires and my car looks better. (Tire dressing/cleaner)
    That golden retriever that was doing a sniff had fluffy pants. Hahaha! Bex made a Beautiful sweater!

    Adore the cardi and shame the cafe was closing.
    The views were beautiful and it would be nice if you ever have time to return to the graveyard. Maybe on a dry warm day the tower is open.
    Enjoy your Valentine's.

    love your content - I live overseas now but come from Fife, and still have family in Kinross and visit often - it's a bit of a trip down memory lane watching some of the places you go to. I don't crochet like you Becks but I do knit so I appreciate the work that has gone into that cardigan, which is lovely, thank you both, Gillian

    • @scotlandonashoestring

      Thanks Gillian- I was a knitter but am just learning crochet and love how quickly things work up. Glad you enjoy the trips down memory lane.

    Beautiful views on your walk. We, too, wondered what someone would do with the tower, if it has indeed been sold. Quite a "fixer upper" project! I'm so happy to see the little robin; love the European robins. And Bex, the cardigan turned out great. Looking forward to the next. (oh, and, in a Canadian accent, you don't know how good you have it. LOL)

    My family are from Abernethy and a few will be buried in the graveyard you had a nice wander through. They then moved on to Newburgh, so there will be tons more of them in the old graveyard at Newburgh if you ever go there. Thanks for all your lovely videos. I'm jealous everytime you have a scone! Xx

      We just drove through Newburgh on the way to Abernethy and spotted the graveyard there.. may be a bit too excited about getting back there soon!!

    What a beautiful view of the river Tay. So you heard me chuckle when you complained about the weather! I do agree with you though I hate the winters because of the short days . It just seems never ending. The cardigan is lovely. Sell some through your channel. I am sure you would have many orders.

      The days are getter lighter here now and the bulbs are coming through. I’m a bit addicted to the cardies now but I can only wear one at a time 😂

    You are in my husband's town. He's from Perth, but we live in USA now. Been to Kinnoull Hill quite a few times. I love it when I see something I am familiar with. Love the cardigan!

    Stunning views! Shame about the keys to the tower - am I right in thinking Willie and Sarah had the same problem a while back?! Gotta love DeNiro's floppy ears 😍 Ooo cute kitty too! The cardi is wonderful Bex!

    Forest hike, crisp cold air, tweeting birds, makes for a wonderful time. How much land comes with that second tower? Enough to build a decent 3 bedroom, 2 bath house would be nice. Kind of bummed out, no charity shop.

    A nice cardigan. Is there a pattern available?

      Thank you. There are quite a few TH-cam tutorials available. If you look for Hexi cardigan you find some.
