  • Bittersweet

    Second up from the big photo session – Bittersweet is done! ^.^ You can read more about how it came to be here and here. Named after the colorway of the gorgeous yarn, which is Shepherds Worsted from Lorna’s Laces. It’s such a joy to wear, and to work with! Hopefully it’ll fare well in…

  • FO: Blue Fluff Poncho (FO: Blå fluffig poncho!)

    För ungeför en vecka sedan bar det av ut med maken för en ordentlig fotosession, vilket var på tiden – med mig hade jag inte mindre än 8 olika tröjor! Va?! Jag hade ingen aning om att det hade samlat sig till en sådan hög. Jag har helt klart snöat in för mycket på tröjor…

  • FO: Crochet socks! (FO: Virkade sockor!)

    Here are the socks I showed you a not so long ago, all finished and I’ve already worn them several times! These are actually completely improvised – I just had to do some reading on how to crochet a good heel. Improvising socks from the toe up is super fun and easy! Very rough instructions…

  • Craft theme stamps! (Frimärken med handarbete!)

    These Swedish stamps have been out for a while now, but I never got around to blog about them. Aren’t they lovely? The one with the socks is my favorite!^.^ *** Dessa frimärken med handarbetstema har nog de flesta sett vid det här laget, men jag kom inte ihåg att blogga om dem förrän nu.…

  • Knitted bag (Stickad väska)

    Source: ravelry.com via Madeleine on Pinterest I really like the look of this bag that I came across on my daily browsing on Ravelry (the pattern is free!). I’ve been thinking about knitting myself a bag soon, and the shape of this is perfect! I’m thinking lunchbox, craft project and/or other necessary things that I bring with me to school everyday. What…

  • Vandrare for adults! (Vandrare för vuxna!)

    This is what I’ve been knitting on the past week! I got such a wonderful response on my new pattern Vandrare, and also several requests for making it in adult sizes. Since I’ve been ogling this wonderful yellow yarn (Malabrigo Worsted in the color Cadmium), I thought it was a perfect opportunity to order some…

  • Crochet socks! (Virkade sockor!)

    I fell in love with a pair of thinner knitted socks my husbands sister wore – unfortunately it would take me ages to knit socks with fingering yarn for myself. On top of that I’m a loose knitter, and I can’t say that I fancy knitting with my 1 mm needles. Why haven’t I crocheted…

  • Gnome! (Hustomte!)

    Source: lutteridyl.blogspot.com via Madeleine on Pinterest I’m a devoted Pinterest user, and I surf among all the glorious pins pretty much everyday. The app for the smartphone is perfect, even better than using the computer! You can find me and my boards here – I mostly pin colorful home decor and crafting ideas. ^.^ This…
