Knitting
My new mannequin
This post is actually not about the jacket, which is an older project from the Rebecca magazine (issue nr 43, model 33), but: I finally own a mannequin torso, I ‘m so happy about it 🙂
I was dreaming of it since a long time! There are quite a lot of different versions available at the moment; I saw some at Nanu Nana and at Xenos, mine is from the last one.
Isn’t it wonderful?
Knitted skirts
A friend asked me recently, whether I also knit skirts. These are the last ones I made and also the most practical ones. They are quite warm, due to the double yarn, so I can really wear them in the winter.
The first one is based on a model of Filati Catwalk nr.1 . I made it shorter than the original:
The second one is just an improvisation of the first, where I combined it with elements of model 11 of the same issue (which I did not find online):
Quick and simple tunic
I had quite a few complicated knitting and crochet projects the last months. So I decided to do something that goes fast for a change:
I’ve used Kidlana nr. 6 from Lana Grossa and to make the shape I’ve simply reduced 3 stitches every 10th row (divide the stitches by 4 and reduce 3 stitches in between). It took me only 6 balls of 25 gr.!
snowy winter – warm feet
This little cute baby shoes are very easy and ready in only one hour and washable. This ones are made for a new born Baby. Yarn RELAX from Lana Grossa. 
Christmas gifts
Don’t you agree, cowls are the best idea for small Christmas gifts? They can be made quite quickly, they fit everybody, are cosy and warm, a wonderful start for the winter, a necessary accessory, …
Here is my production of the last weeks 🙂
Last years loop cowl, in a new colour:
My newest discovery: a quite simple lace pattern from Vogue Knitting! Here it is in two different versions, one in a Lana Grossa yarn:
And the next one in a malabrigo silky merino:
Each of them is made with one an a half 50 gram skeins. I’ve used another skein to make the wristers.
