A diary for all my knitting and making
Socks for Spring
It’s end of April and I think Spring is here to stay this time. The sun is shining and the air feels fresh and surprisingly warm. I’m ready for all the flowers and green grass. To celebrate I have just released two new sick designs: Mauve Socks and Lemonade Socks!
Spring Sweaters
For month or so ago I was all about Spring things: tops and t-shirts and shorts and what not. But now, I do feel like long sleeved thick sweaters are all we are going to need. So I have started and almost finished two new sweater projects while waiting for Spring. And these are the loveliest, simple sweaters this time.
Sock projects
I used to hate knitting sock, but recently something has changed! I keep knitting pair after pair and absolutely love every single stitch!
I love the quick nature of sock knitting, I love that I can use complicated stitch patterns without committing to many weeks of knitting.
Monday Love Dress
Hello March! I can’t quite believe it’s here. The official first spring month. We have had a few sunny days when the sun actually feels warm and there’s a chance that by summer all the snow might have melted. But I’m pretty certain that these first rays (and days) of sunshine are just a hoax, ready to lure us all into this phase of fool’s spring.
Popsicle Sweater
Oh what a happy Friday! This is a day I’ve been waiting for, because today is the day I can finally share the Popsicle Sweater with you all! I’m so excited!
Bubblegum Shawl
Today I wanted to chat a little bit about my Bubblegum Shawl. A lovely little shawl that’s all about mixing textures and yarn bases.
Laventeli Sweater
Today I want to talk a little bit about the newly released sweater pattern of mine: Laventeli Sweater.
This gorgeous fluffy dream sweater was started already last Spring in a way, because that’s when I bought the first skeins for it from Säie Wool. At that point I was thinking about a cardigan, and holding only one strand of Mohair but pairing it with a fingering weight yarn. However, during the Spring and Summer months I was starting to lean heavily into a double stranded Silk-Mohair sweater!
January Projects
This January has been all about knitting! I feel like I’ve been sitting on the sofa with a project on my hands for the majority of this month. And all the remaining times I’ve been in front of the computer. Life sometimes works that way I guess?
New Beanies for January
Winter, in my opinion, is also the perfect time to knit quick and warn woolly things like beanies! At least I feel this is the time. If you haven’t made a new hat for the new year yet, I have two lovely designs for you to try.
