busy as always i couldn't find the time to come back to this little blog and tell you what's going on....sorry
so many testknits, new designs, collaborations with yarnies and yarn companies, the house renovation and the move (!!!!!) back to the house had eaten up my time...
you won't believe it (i do not believe it myself!)...since this last post i made 16 other projects...what???? 16????
not counting the ones i didn't already put on my rav project page...
so what to do now
..think the best will be to start telling you about them and trying to keep up posting until i have shown you all of them ;)
ok, so here we go:
i did a lovely lila (just because i couldn't resist, when Carrie released this fantastic pattern)
pattern. lila by Carrie Bostick Hoge
yarn. lang-yarns-denim-cotton-recycled in col. 35
a wonderfully written, easy peasy bottom-up raglan sweater with an adorable and flattering shape, just love it and will do anotherone in wool for autumn (..if i ever find the time to knit all the things i'd love to ;)
...
next was a testknit i did for lilo
i didn't finish in time (...sometimes i am an awful testknitter, right?), but i can say, that this also looks so cool with short sleeves (hahaha!)
pattern. askia by Cailliau Berangere
yarn. unlabled Sockyarn doubled
changed the neck increases to make it wider, no other mods (so far...)
...
the next and last for today was this beauty
this is such a beautiful, romantic cardigan (don't know how she does this again and again...Jo is a genius!)
pattern. old-romance by Joji Locatelli
yarn. handdyed by me (fantastic color, isn't it ;)
some minor mods to make it mine:
no contrast color for the lace insets
shorter body
slightly a-shaped
picot bind-off
....i will be out for hiking this weekend (...aaaand for celebrating a good friends 40th birthday), so i won't be able to continue with this update before next week..
do i hear someone laughing????
anyhow i can try, right ;)
all the best and take care
love,
isa m.
