Now, this is the perfect summer knitting. I can’t imagine how long would it take to make it in my size :D. But heck, summer will be next year too.
The pattern can be found in Vogue Knitting Summer 2007. And the yarn is available at Elann.com.
Think linen, cotton, and silk for summer knitting!

Tomorrow I have to go to work again, and this time I need to decide if I want to stay for another 6 months or not.
I made a list, with pros and contras on both sides. Turned out clearly that I do not want to stay for a minute, even if the future is a [...]

Yeah. My husband often teases me, why I knit socks or sweaters in the summer. I don’t understand the question. Why on Earth not? First, it takes so much time to me, that I probably will not finish them until the winter anyway. Second, there are yarns for the summer. Yesssss. Ssssssssilk, for example. It [...]

And the co-workers [...]

Yes, I’m two balls sort with the Caftan pullover. Never mind. I knew this is going to be my most expensive project ever, so two or three more balls will not matter. I’ve been searching the net for an economic solution, and I think I have found the best source on Ebay. With 5,40 per [...]
My first colorwork was the hat I have published here in one of my first posts, and ever since I keep thinking about making something coloured again. But this time something different. Fair Isle is something that requires more confidence than I’ve got so far.
And guess what I have found:
Yes. Amazing, isn’t it? It doesn’t [...]
I was going to write about celebrity knitting, but then I saw that there is a lot of articles in this topic. So I dropped the subject. The one I’m going to write about it now is animals in knitted/crochet gear. I know, there is a lot of articles about this too. But I still [...]
