I broke several hooks lately (including my favorite ever bone hook) so I tried to refurbish my stock. Look at the set I received this morning. There’s a 4.5 mm, a 5 mm (made of Olive wood no less!), a 8 mm and a 10 mm. Can’t wait to try them and see if they’re […]
I love scarflettes. They’re cute, warm, quick to make and yet highly functional. I’ve just created a new Flickr group, “Scarflettes galore !”. I hope you’ll join us !
Whoops, can you see the difference in size between both Kureyon berets ? I’ve just realised I had actually increased 11 extra st. on the former one. Now I’m relieved because I much prefer the smallest size and kept thinking I should rework on the pattern but it wouldn’t work out .. Will now write […]
The Banjo Bag is now being tested. The pattern should be ready by next week or so… after I do a little swatch to check gauge… Yeah I know that’s usually what people start with!! ;-) I also plan a matching beret with the same colours if I have enough of the black yarn.. (a […]
Yesterday night I finished the pink scarflette: chose a set of pretty vintage buttons (they’re mostly glass buttons!) and sewed them on. Here’s the photos ! Far right picture is a (bad) preview of that new crochet scarf I’m working on. I have so many projects in mind with this mix of yarns… Not a […]
Not that I plan it that way but I’ve noticed that whenever I try and like a new design, I usually end up with several items around the same “theme”. Like my 4 Isabeau patterns… Same goes with my other designs although it doesn’t show yet: many items are still unfinished (as that cardi that […]
I just signed up for the Dŕ©tournement de Laine swap. (hopefully it’s not too late, they only take 100 sign ups) If you’re in France, you might want to have a look ! Last night we watched Thalassa on tv so I made good progress on my scarf. Now remains those monotonous dangly bits… and […]
Just found this cool aplet (is that how you call those ?), Spell with Flickr. The best is you can actually change each letter until you like the one you’re getting… :-) Yesterday was Prune’s very first “day” (actually only a couple hours) of school. Yes, kids start school at 3 over here, which is […]
And here’s yet more pics of Maud.. ;-) I stumbled upon CrochetRoo’s patterns the other on Etsy and HAD to make some of her stuff ! So here’s a Gecko (made with huge wooden beads but apparently Geckos have huge eyes so we’ll pretend I chose those on purpose) and a turtle and my first […]
Technically, I should be finished: I’ve knit 2 long sleeves. But it was twice on the same side (needed a couple extra stitches..) so I’ve now one short sleeve and one long. ;-) I have a feeling I’m going to rip it again though. Until it’s just perfect. Sometimes I think it’d be easier to […]
