2015 – make all your wishes come true
My mum (Sockwool-shoes and Laydown-Sheep) and me (owl, cap and wristlets, Upright-Sheep) take advantage of the Christmas Days to create a lot of usefull and nice-to-have New Year gifts. The slippers were completely designed by my mum. The cap and wristlets by me. The sheeps are based on a pattern from Boshi Design.
Winter lace top
I like using shimmering yarns for simple lace knits. This one is a pattern from the new LAMANA magazine, knit with Lana Grossa lace lux yarn. I went for a narrower form than suggested, now I’m not sure, whether this was the right decision…
For next summer…
While everybody is preparing for the winter, I am hurrying to finish my summer projects – for one time not to leave unfinished works for next year! This one had already to wait enough: I started it last august and did not finish till this year!
One good thing though, it came out exactly as I’ve conceived it 🙂
Summer colors for a spring cardigan
I thought of making this cardigan just in the beginning of the spring – the sunny days made me prefer these summer colors but still something warm. As always, I was too slow: I just finished it last week, when the real summer came…
The pattern is an improvisation, based on two-color brioche stitch and stitches from Knitting out of Africa from Marianne Isager
The yarns: ggh ondario col. 006 and Lana Grossa Baby Seta col. 007.
