I need some time to get used to this selling-on-a-fair thing. On Sunday we woke up at 4:30 am, to get to Budapest in time. We got there well before it started, which was nice, so we had time to set up our booth. Do not think anything fancy though.
As you see, I don’t have [...]

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. We just needed the paper, for administrative purposes. We have finished in the registry office in 5 minutes. But we enjoyed this 5 [...]

This was my first fair isle knitting. It was going to be a hat for me. Then it turned out too small, so I gave it to my daughter. It was too big for her. Now it is owned by a friends daughter, who is modelling it on the picture. She looks fab in it. [...]

YAY! I’ve received my final package from the wonderful Joan(http://bitsycreations.etsy.com) with my brand new avatars, logo, banner, and business card. Now I can go to WAMP with my full armoire.

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 [...]
Now, if you have all kind of knitting needles (or at least a few of them), and wonder what to do with them, or how to use them at all, there are a lot of helpful sites, where you can learn knitting. From the basics, to the more advanced techniques, there are help for every [...]
Yesterday evening I immediately started a bag, which is actually a crochet bag, and it is in a bowling bag style. It is going to be smashing! No pictures yet, but I will add one when it is worth it, or you will be able to see a decent progress. I make it in brown [...]
