Chez Plum

… I so can’t resist showing it hot off the needles !! A mini shrug, sized for my baby girl. Next on the list is the same one, adult size !

Also this morning I got the package from Maria in my mailbox : Yum, I love the LionBouclé, it’s so soft, I can’t wait to [...]

Okay, so I’m really trying to think hard for a name now.
So far, the only one I kinda really liked was “chez Plum”, which had a soft rounded feeling I really liked. But my partner objected that my little daughter Prune (=plum in english) might not like that when she grows older, and that [...]

That’s it, the Stitch diva flower competition entries are online now so it’s time to vote ! (also you’ll get a 10% discount on your next order)
I was a bit dissapointed by the number of entries, I thought there’d be more. However, there are still a couple real cool ones.. And btw, I’m not the [...]

Oh yeah, sorry I forgot to say the voting for the Stitch Diva thing should start only at the end of the week (they said 24th). I can’t wait to see what the others have made, I’m sure some projects will be unbelievably creative (did you see the one featured in their newsletter?)
Thanks for all [...]

Yeah!! I received my “Loop d Loop” book yesterday (and once again Amazon was faster than announced)!! And just like I thought, this book is going to be my new (knitting) Bible ! I love that she explores new boundaries, and sets up new horizons. So inspiring. Plus I know I’m going to actually [...]

I’ve been waiting for my summer IK issue to arrive for sooo long I was starting to think it had been “lost”.. But it did make it after over 6 weeks of shipping! I really wouldn’t get a subscription in the end, the wait would drive me insane !!
A lot of the projects are [...]

.. Because there’s this Lion Brand design contest I’d really like to participate to, except that I don’t have any of their yarn !
So I’m looking for somebody who’d have a couple odd balls of Lion Bouclé ( + maybe a bit of Fun Fur), and would be intersted in swapping those for some yarn [...]

Wow thanks guys for the cool comments !! And Christine, you’re so nice ! I’m touched. I’ve been admiring your awesome Lelah for quite a while !!! But Hum.. I’d have to add straps !! ;-)
I don’t have much to show this time, not that I haven’t finished anything, but I really want to set [...]
