Huntrix dolls
If you’ve been following my On the Go posts over the past few months, you know that my creative world has been completely dominated by the Netflix film KPop Demon Hunters. For my niece’s birthday, you already saw the knitted Huntrix sweater, and today it’s the turn of another project from that same fandom corner: the crocheted Huntrix dolls, which…

Huntrix sweater
It took just over three months to finish this sweater, from the very first idea to weaving in the very last thread. And as you’ve read several times in my On the Go updates over the past few months, it was anything but a straightforward process. There was an initial idea that I tackled with great enthusiasm. The stitches flew…

On the go #19
Because of my week in Ibiza and just a few “I-don’t-feel-like-it” days, I’m — surprise! — behind on everything I want to make for Christmas. Whoops. You might notice that here on the blog too, because every free moment is currently more likely to be spent crocheting or knitting than writing blog posts. So, here’s this quick, word-light update on…

On the go #18: Derpy’s evolution
Pinterest is a bit of an addiction for me. It’s become a little morning ritual to scroll through the app while I sip my cup of coffee and collect ideas. Most of them sadly disappear into the depths of my mind soon after, but every now and then one lingers long enough to spark something new. And that’s pretty much…

On the go #17: KPop Demon Hunters – The Derpy Spinoff
Roughly in parallel with my knitted Huntrix jumper, another KPop Demon Hunters idea started to nag at me. While I was knitting stitch after stitch, something completely different was quietly brewing in the back of my mind… something involving crochet hooks, stripes, and… a tiger. A few years ago, I came across an absolutely brilliant Cheshire Cat Halloween project on…

On the go #16: Kpop Demon Hunters – The Sequel (in Reverse)
In my previous On the Go update, I left you with a bit of a knitting dilemma: what to do with the piece of my Huntrix jumper that was already on the needles? Start over according to my second idea, or try to salvage the earlier version? That knot has since been untangled — literally. The old piece was unravelled,…

Elephant mittens
They have already made a few appearances in the “on the go” section, but now that they are FI.NAL.LY completely finished, they truly deserve a solo spotlight with a dedicated post. For years, crocheted mittens have been a staple in my autumn and winter outfits. They are perfect for warming slightly cold hands without immediately losing all feeling in your…

Tinker Bell Dress
To celebrate the birth of my friend’s baby daughter, I once again felt the itch to make something. Over the years, I’ve built up the habit of crocheting blankets as baby gifts, but funnily enough that didn’t even cross my mind this time. No, this time I wanted to knit a little dress. It had been a while since I…

On the go #15: Kpop Demon Hunters Edition
My creative outbursts are currently completely devoted to Kpop Demon Hunters. My nieces and nephews have been in the thrall of this Netflix film for a while now, and yes, thanks to them, I also ended up on the sofa on a summery Saturday evening to watch the film. I must admit that I completely understand the hype. The film…

Birthday Hugs with Bluey
Coming up with ideas for birthday presents seems to get trickier every year. There are so many lovely toys and clothes I’d still like to make, but at the same time I sometimes worry I’m repeating myself a bit too much. A jumper here, a cuddly toy there… after a while it feels as if I’m always giving the same…
