I had 2 skeins of Kureyon in that 147 shade. Hooked away thinking I could still make it a bit shorter as it’s okay-ish with 6 rows of shells. But I’m short of 3 shells to finish that 6th row !!! :-/
Would anyone have tiny remnants (15-20 g) of Kureyon 147 (lot [...]

I really should get started on a translation tonight but can’t resist showing you yet another FO: I sent this “Banjo Bag” today for the “Détournement de mode” swap. It will be showcased at the “Créé attitudes” Salon in Paris next week before going to its final recipient. Let’s hope she likes it !

If you’re only a knitter, sorry for the lack of knitting content lately.. It seems my brains are so excited by all the new poosibilities offerered by crochet that I just can’t stop !
Some of my older readers may remember that “Mouchelette” top I knitted for Prune ages ago. The pattern is still waiting to [...]

I need more Malabrigo merino worsted for future projects… so I thought I’d try and swap/sell that HipKnits aran weight silk…. Have a look on Destash for details !

Also, look at my pink Scarflette in that “button up” Treasury !! :-)

So, my Plumetis is officially done ! The weather is finally turning to nice again (nearly turned the heater back on yesterday, it was freezing !), hopefully we can do some nicer outdoor pics soon !

I’m now working on the sizing, let’s cross fingers I can handle this… ;-)
As I said before, I’d love [...]

but the fancy scarf is done. I just need to add tassels at the ends (thanks for the right word BH !!), snap a quick pic, and get it mailed out asap !!!!
Hopefully I’ll get that done today, and shall post a pic then.
But the actual reason I couldn’t wait and HAD to post is [...]

Yeah !!! I was starting to think it would never arrive, but I got my package from the Crafster “my country doesn’t have this” swap yesterday morning !! And look what elizabeth sent me !

The 2 skeins of the Rowan “all seasons cotton” I had asked for (this way I’ll be able to check if [...]

I got this in the mail today: the awesome needlecase Melissa sent me, along with an assorted v. cool stitch marker.

And speaking of stitch markers, I just started using one of these little guys yesterday, and I think I’m addicted ! Not that I NEED it – I’ve just cast on for a nb 2 [...]
