 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 [...]

On the WAMP I sold a beaded knitting bag, and I could have sell a lot more. So I decided to make a few knitting bags for the next one, instead of more bead crochet jewelry, I think I have enough of that stuff now. I immediately started to search for inspiration on the net. [...]

Preparing for the big event

Published by mityka under Crochet,Knitting,Miscellaneous

I’m far more excited about this event on Sunday, than I was with my wedding. No wonder. We got married when I was 7 months pregnant, and didn’t care too much for it.

Thanks to Ravelry, my postman will be very busy in the next few weeks. Let me list what I can expect, and what should I send out, before I forget: – There is a book swap, which was a great idea: You choose something (book, booklet, pattern) your partner wants badly, and send it out [...]
