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…

On the go #14
Recently, in my post about the granny summer top, I mentioned how I was craving a meditative crochet project. Something I could do mindlessly. That brought the elf coat back to the forefront of my thoughts — a project I started a while ago but abandoned once I reached the sewing stage. I’m the kind of person who likes doing…

New favourite sweater (eventually)
It’s ridiculous sometimes how long I let projects drag on — when really, they could be finished in no time at all! The last time I blogged about this sweater — over a year ago by now — it still looked like this: no sleeves, no collar. The rest — the sleeves and the collar — were actually knitted before…

On the go #13
For many of the recurring posts I write here, I aim to have them appear once a month. Often it takes longer than a month, sometimes because I just don’t get around to it, sometimes because I have nothing to say and sometimes because I don’t feel like it, lol. For the “on the go” posts it’s been almost a…

On the go #12
Like many crafters, I have several half-finished projects lying around. Some I started with great enthusiasm, only to lose interest along the way. Others I am absolutely certain I will finish, but I keep getting sidetracked by newer ideas. This past summer, I dug into a box of those lost/forgotten projects and made a few decisions. Picking Flowers Sweater I…

On the go #11
My making frenzy seems to have subsided somewhat last month, but I am very happy that I still regularly knit, crochet and sew! I worked on two ongoing projects, completed a request and started a new project. I haven’t continued with the embroidery/hat project from the last updated unfortunately. It will probably take me some time to work up the…

Hat experiment
In my last On the go post, I talked about finding a hat project that I started over a year ago, but had completely forgotten about. At the time I was busy playing with my new https://charami.com/tag/addi-express-en/ (I really need to get back to that again soon) and I had made the base for a hat for myself, with colours…
