Harry Potter scarves on the Addi Express
When I told you about my reason for buying a knitting mill, then this was my justification: Harry Potter scarves. For years I have been collecting wool with the intention of making Harry Potter scarves. It was mainly a search for the perfect colours according to my eyes. It actually started ridiculously many years ago when I first saw the…

Genre blanket: August
Finally some more progress in my genre blanket of 2022! Since we are already quite far into the first month of 2023, I have put the idea of making another bookish blanket in the closet this year. I thought about it for a while, because it really is a very cool concept with surprising results. But since I still have…

From Elsa to Crystal
Christmas has been over for a while and the Christmas presents have all been unwrapped, so time to show them here! Like every year, I make a large part of my Christmas presents myself. My most productive months of the year, when I actually finish crafts, are usually November and December. This year I kept track: in 2022 I made…

Read in December 2022
December started out as a difficult reading month. In theory this should be one of the coziest reading months of the year, with blankets and fairy lights, but in practice my mind was busy with so many other things that I had trouble keeping my attention. Once I got into a book and got along with the introduction of the…

Winter Garden Sweater
Even before I bought the knitting-mill, I had again caught the knitting bug. It all started with the blankets I made earlier in the year and the fact that a number of seamstresses I follow on YouTube suddenly started knitting. This reminded me that I still had so many cute sweater patterns that I wanted to make for myself one…

I bought a knitting mill!
As the title says, I bought a knitting mill. Somewhere at the beginning of November already, and I’ve played with it quite a bit since then, so it’s high time to show it here too! First and foremost, what is a knitting mill? Ewel, you undoubtedly know a knitting nancy? That is a wooden doll or mushroom with around 4…

Reading journal November 2022
In my previous reading journal post I mentioned that I was a bit behind on my monthly spreads and reviews, but thanks to the limbo period between Christmas and New Years I have almost caught up and I am also well advanced with my yearly spreads in my reading journal of 2023! To get my creative juices flowing for my…

Read in November 2022
November was a busy month and therefore a rather fractured reading month, but I still managed to read quite a bit. Not so much the books I had put on my TBR for the month, or at least not all of them. I did finished my 100th book of the year and completed a new favourite series. In total I…

Reading journal October 2022
As the end of the year approaches, my attention seems to be scattering in all directions. This is definitely felt in my reading journal, since I only just finished my entries for October. Yes, you read that right, I haven’t even started my November and December setups! Normally I make my setups somewhere in the beginning of the month. Ideally…
