Genre blanket: June
June turned out to be another good and varied reading month, albeit a bit more Sci-Fi heavy than usual, but that’s a genre I want to read more of anyway. In total I read nine books spread over 6 different genre blanket genres. Juni genres 1. Sci-Fi 2. Thriller 3. Sci-Fi 4. YA Fantasy 5. Historical Romance 6. Sci-Fi 7.…

Genre blanket: May
After the profilic reading month of April, May became a slightly more relaxed month in terms of books read. In total I finished five books, all in a different genre, meaning that I could add another five different colours to my genre blanket! Mei genres 1. Adult Fantasy 2. Mystery 3. YA Fantasy 4. Horror 5. Romance Recently I got…

Genre blanket: April
April was a very prolific reading month, due to the first semester of the new magical readathon by G. Readathons always motivate me to read a lot and this was definitely the case in April, where I read a total of 16 books. This of course also meant quite a lot of crocheting for my genre blanket, for which I…

Baby Yoda
It is not uncommon for me to hand out homemade gifts. Sometimes this is for a reason (birthdays and births, etc.) and sometimes I just wanted to make something, but have no place or use for it myself. For example, I have already distributed crochet critters to colleagues at work, who are fans of something or other. One colleague had…

My secret santa gift
They say that you can look back at the previous year until the end of January. If that’s the case, I’m totally going to ignore that rule, since I’m a little behind with my overviews of 2017. I still have at least 4 posts under way, but that’s not the reason for this post. In this post, I want to…

Gus the knight
One of my colleagues became mom to a little boy named Gus last November. The announcement featured this tough-looking knight. So when I got to test a pattern for a knight doll for Annelies from Vicarno , I already knew to whom I was going to give my knight. I’ve finished my doll a while back, but I was not…

Almost two years later
In a previous message I mentioned I was thinking about starting a new crochet project, but instead I picked up an old unfinished project! This bolero was started over 2 years ago from a free pattern found through Ravelry. It’s made from 10 squares, which I finished and assembled on the go. And then I got stuck on the border.…

Random ripple blanket: Ta-dah!
I’ve finished it for a while now, but I wanted to wait to show it here until I had given it to its recipient. I made this ripple as a special request by my goddaughter and Sunday I gave it to her on her birthday party. I had been tempted a couple of times to give the blanket sooner, because…
