Finding peace in knitting
Vergeet yoga en meditatie, de ware rust vind ik nu in handwerken Om mijn projectjes bij elkaar te houden en ook de vele leuke links die ik vind op zoek naar advies heb ik dit blog gemaakt.

I’m putting together my promo keyrings for the much coveted goodiebag from Craftygirls. I missed last edition as I was too late, they sold out in 20 mins! This time I’m going to make sure I’m in time as there are soooo many cute things in it I just don’t want to miss out. As it’s a surprise bag you don’t know which of the donated pieces you will get but there are many cool things. For example (and not limited to, there’s just to much cute stuff) the phonestrap dolls from Dortith Wielinga, supercute ipod bags from Mokka, I love the keyrings from Huisstijl Creaties, the artcards from Nina Valkhoff, and I especially love the paperset made by MoshiMoshi.

Sale starts on monday 14th of November.

from my “new” knitting book.

I’m embroidering this for a swap I’m doing with Kristy Daum from po-ka-dot. It’s a sneakapeak for her as the finishing date has been and gone.
Not again?!!!! When will I ever learn!

On that note: Nate, I hope you saw this photo:

I love making them but am unsure of what to do with them. Some I’ve given away as little gifts or trades but the others are lying here in a small drawer.

F.’s jumper is almost finished and I can’t wait to try it on him, although he hates getting dressed these days, or undressed as he likes to be warm. I got some gorgeous Rowan wool for Nate yesterday and have started the scarf. Will work on it some more tomorrow.

Flutterby which at some point in the future will merge with this one. Mostly I update my photo’s though on Flickr.

Long time no blog, busy easter, lovely easter. Finished the front of F.’s jumper (knitting), made the above flower (from an old skirt) and made my first ever handbag. (photo still to be posted).
That’s all the update.

Via Boneca de Papel and Marta Mendes I got to Dona Chita’s website and the tutorial for the flower on the left. It’s a bit lopsided. Better luck next time.

Koolaid dyed wool and loot from the market. The dark bit is leather, the green for trousers for F.
