Hey Makers, I hope this last month of the year is treating you well. I’m enjoying these frosty days and witnessing the change of autumn to winter. Autumn held on long this year, and while most trees have now lost their leaves they held on […]

Thanks, it has pockets
It is about time I show you this cardigan I knit at the start of this year. I cast on in late 2018 and finished her early next spring. I knit most of it in the middle of that year’s emergency cat surgery drama, said […]
Riddariculous!
It’s been a while since a lopapeysa featured on the blog, hasn’t it? I actually made this particular Icelandic sweater last year, before I moved. You’ll have seen some glimpses of it on instagram, mainly of my cats’ brave attempts to steal it for naps […]
Can Anybody Find Me: Love Note Sweater
Thought it was about time I’d share the finished Love Note sweater. You’ll have seen me posting progress shots of the sweater earlier in the summer. The pattern is by Tin Can Knits and came out earlier this year, in May. When the pattern was […]
Summer Things
We’re half way through summer and we’ve just had the warmest week on record in my neck of the woods. We smashed through multiple records, including the all time record on multiple days and if I read one more sensation piece about it that doesn’t […]

Pippilotta Delicatessa Windowshade Mackrelmint Ephraim’s Daughter Longstocking

Ashland jumper
Hey friends, in my ongoing mission to catch up with my summer (and now also autumn) makes on all my platforms, I thought I’d show you one of the sweaters I finished over the summer. The photos were taken on a dreary, rainy autumn day […]
Unst Cardigan
I don’t think any summer has affected my knitting as much as the last one. We broke through a couple of heat records and it was the driest summer of my life time. It went on for months. It reflected in my crafting; knitting went […]
Parrot Puffin
I don’t often knit the same pattern twice. Certainly when it concerns garments, it is a rarity. I have often professed “I´d like to knit this again at some point”, or “This pattern would be so cool in a totally different colour palette”, but you […]
