Time to get back to blogging again! What better day than on my birthday? Just made a banana split cake for todays dinner 😊

Here casting on for a new design with Malabrigo Worsted in colorway Applewood. Gorgeous!

From older days…

Need to figure out where I’m at – what I’ve posted on the blog, what not. Not to mention descipher notes and write the patterns for the new designs I’ve made. Time and energy is low. Preparing for moving house this summer. Much to do, preparing to sell our old place.

Meanwhile, from older days. A baby set made for me by my grandmother. 33 years old!

I am alive. Playground knitting today. The whole family has been sick in January, so feeling pretty exhausted. Working on an experiment (an adult vest for me), and looking forward to see how it turns out. Planning on releasing some new free patterns soon, too!

LOVE the color! Totally went “oooh” when this came in the mail. Malabrigo Worsted, colorway Shocking Pink. Here I’ve CO for my new vest design Ljus.

Modeled photos of upcoming design Humla! Plenty of room to grow for my 10 week old girl! 

A new design finished up. Still need to do the pattern writing, but I had lots of fun with this one! I’m calling it Hipp!

Perhaps better worn over something though, unless you like the belly button peekaboo look 😆

Another Christmas gift! Using the very last of the purple yarn to make a matching adult size bonnet for G’s mother! Yarn used: Drops Eskimo in white, Drops Air and Järbo Naturgarn Nr1 in pink/purple. I especially like how the pom-pom turned out!

Result of stash bust. Turned out great! The four year old recipient seemed to approve very much! 🙂💕

Same improvised model as the one I made for my boy.

Another knitting success! This vest is T’s current favourite. Magic ball, yarn simply knotted together – not visible in the final fabric. Awesome, in other words. Improvised from the top down. Cryptic notes for a 3-4 year size can be found on my project page.
