Sometimes I’m amazed that despite all the testing and people using my patterns, some typos will show up long after the publication of a pattern. :-/ We were away for a couple days visiting my in-laws, and I visited their local thrifstore. Found great stuff there, and a few cute skeins of yarn. Including this […]
Prune’s new slippers have been finished for a while, but I only added soles yesterday night. They’re kind of foam soles, and I’m not sure they’ll last long. But at least they’re anti-slippery so that prune doesn’t fall every step she makes ;-) Of course Maud asked for a pair too, which I made so […]
Booh, tryed to order some yarn from Phildar (quite exceptional for me, but my grandmother asked I crochet a blanket for her) online today, and it took forever. At 7am !! I tried yesterday but it wouldn’t even let me log in. Can’t they get a decent server ? :-/ It seems there’s no Phildar […]
Both girls are now going to school here in Vercors. Prune loves her new school and Maud is doing ok (she even went all day today). That leaves me lots of time to work during the day, wow. We did the usual first-day-of-school shot, but of course miss prune can’t stay still so she’s all […]
Finally we’re seing the end of the tunnel. The new flat is starting to look really good, most of the boxes being sorted. And we cleaned and gave the keys back of the old flat. That was a big job, and I hardly had any time for our day job for the last couple weeks, […]
Last week we went away for a few days with the girls to my granmother’s chalet, as it’s hard to keep them busy here in our tiny appartment. I brought a few projects with me and although I didn’t do half as much as expected, I still have a couple (unfinished) things to show. I […]
First I wanted to say Hi to all the people coming from Craftzine ! I hope you’ll enjoy the Headband pattern :-D A series of mistakes has been brought to my attention in the XL size of the Violaine top. Oops, sorry about that, I thought I had double-checked all the numbers but I guess […]
This week we’ve been away, house-sitting a beautiful place in Vercors (where we’re dreaming of moving to within a couple years) and taking care of the cats. As you can see, it’s not too shaby.. ;-) Great for the girls who can play outside all day, and great for the parents who can relax without […]
(see that super cool crochet tote in the background..? ;-) Last week was Prune’s “f�te de l’�cole”, kind of an open day to celebrate the end of the school year and show what the kids did. All the classes worked on recycling this year, visiting an expo of artwork made with recycled material, learning about […]
Sunday was Mother’s day here in France. I had the best day, with Laurent taking care of everything in the house .. and I was just to do whatever I wished !! :-D which of course included time in front of the computer, and some crocheting… He did a great general cleanup of the flat, […]
