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 #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,…

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…

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 #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…

Flaxosaurus
In my posts about my projects on the go, I regularly talked about a knitting project that I didn’t want to reveal too much about yet. But now I’m going to reveal everything! Based on the photos I shared, you could probably deduce that I had knitted two green sweaters. The (free) pattern I used for this is Flax by…

My Christmas sweater
After everything I made for Christmas to give away, finally something I made for myself! The Julgran sweater* by Andi Satterlund has been on my wishlist to make since its publication in 2017. Five years later and I finally got around to it! * Unfortunately Andi decided to close her shop at the end of 2022, so this pattern can…

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…

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…
