i'm totally unsure about my yardage calculating.

found this tutorial last night while surfing
and had to make one of my own 
this will fit my soon to be ready perla pretty well

my black pearl with a cute leather flower corsage


black pearl with my little ribbon flower corsage


black pearl without closure [like the open look very much]



yarn. no label wool/alpaka
needles. 5.5mm circulars and dpns
pattern. by Joji Locatelli

perla was an enjoyable testknit
the pattern is easy and clear written
love the texture and shape of this beautie <3 <3 <3

a pleasure to knit and a pleasure to wear

have a nice week

striped blanket cardi

remember this sneak peak of my blanket style cardigan?
finished it a few days ago, but had no time for doing the shots...

simplest topdown construction with
a cute raglan line i think



the raglanline flows into a faux side seam
a nice detail for this plain and simple design

yarn. soft merino by ICE YARNS
needles. 4mm circulars and dpns

will work on a pattern, if there is any interest
on such a simple thing





see you
