AÂ few rays of sun today, perfect occasion to show you my new “Konk Kerne” shawl by french designer Vŕ©ronique Chermette/Barjolaine. A very light and airy shawl, featuring this superb lace pattern designed to imitate the fishermen’s nets from Concarneau in french Brittany. Mine looks smaller than the original, probably because of my yarn choice: a […]
Holidays are over, would you believe I hardly touched my hooks for about a month and a half ? No crochet, too busy to read, swim, rest and spend time with friends and family… I did wear a lot my newsest crochet shawl though, the beautiful “Lizard shawl” by Jasmin Rŕ¤sŕ¤nen: a bold mix of airy […]
After weeks of making pompons, teaching the basics of knitting and crochet to kids and adults during our wednesday free workshops at our local library, it’s been a huge pleasure to install the first pompom garlands and armchair cozies. The goal of those workshops: spend a joyful hour together, share a few techniques so that […]
Once again, I had the pleasure to be invited along with the Greblogueuses at the big local craftfair “Creativa”. A perfect opportunity to connect with crafters, see again familiar faces… and share my love of crochet and spindle spinning with others ! Here are a few pictures of those 3 days… Learning how to spin […]
Third edition of the “Lot et Laine” fiber festival in the south-west of France. Such a beautiful region. I was very glad to share this special moment with my older daughter this time…! Made new (crazy) adorable friends, got to see again old friends, taught a spindle spinning workshop, spent time talking about crochet and […]
Such wonderful memories in this chalet with my friend Sophie. For several months I’ve been trying to organise a spinning/crochet/knitting retreat there, to share the passion and meet more amazing crafters… (I know most of you have already planned your summer by now… Hopefully next year I’ll have all the details ready by spring!) Take […]
Fantastic day last sunday, full of fiber and spinning wheels and drumcarders, dear friends and new friends. We spun, carded, chatted, watched a demo of carding a super textured batt for art yarns.. And all this only 1 hour away from home in our little corner of France. It was a joy to be among […]
AnisBee and I both released a pattern named “Loup” around the same day. Except hers is a cute wolf softie, “Compŕ¨re Loup”. Fell in love with it the moment I saw it !! After a quick Loup-Loup swap, I got started on it, thinking I’d use the remnants of my own Loup for a full […]
Last week, I had a fabulous opportunity to show my work at a large craft fair here in Grenoble, “Creativa”. We were invited with our Grenoble knitting group to organise free workshops, catter a knitting corner.. and display/advertise for our crafty businesses. I went there for 2 days, and it was a fabulous opportunity to […]
Sorry for the seemingly abandonned blog, I seem to be writing more in my french blog now as most of my recent news are more local… no new pattern release yet (even though several only need a final polish !), so busy on other things ! In september my husband and a friend threw a […]
