Crochet Waistcoat
This was the first crocheted garment I finished! Used a gorgeous and soft bamboo/cotton yarn from Schackenmayr. Found cheap at a flea market. Pattern from Garnstudio/Drops. I think it was fun to work with – when you started getting tired of one thing it was time to change to the next part. Check out the…

Sweetness hat
Hey, a pic of me! Well, of course the wrist warmers in my previous post needed a matching hat in the same yarn! Crocheted after this pattern (Crochetville), using Drops Karisma and hook 6 mm. Had to add an extra repeat of rows 17-20 to get the right size with this yarn. ***…

Crazy Coat
Trying out a new blog layout – I like change! 🙂 Hope it appeals to you as well. Started this project maybe two weeks ago – believe it or not, it’s meant to become a coat. Might turn out really well or completely hysterical. We’ll just have to se! 😉 At least all those colours…

Starling handbag #3 + Swap joy!
Looks like it’s turning out larger than I expected. 🙂 Lots of room for all the necessary and unnecessary things. I’m totally nutty about handbags, by the way. You can always have use for one more! Got another anonymous swap for “Hemlis 7” today – unexpected mail happiness! Yay! Todays catch is a bookmark,…

Starling handbag #2
I’ve finished the bottom and started working on the sides. Making the large size, by the way. 🙂 Also got my first number of Crochet Today a couple of days ago. I love crochet and knitting magazines – too bad they’re so expensive! *** Botten är klar, och sidorna är påbörjade. Jag virkar den stora…

Starling handbag
I’ve been thinking for quite some time now to try and make myself a Starling handbag. Also a good reason to learn the “foundation single crochet-stich” – it took me a while to get the hang of it! Maybe because I worked with an acrylic yarn that split too much. Found the perfect yarn in…

Circle Cardigan
I have started so many new projects lately… and I had so many already in progress! 😛 Shame on me! Do you have the same problem? It’s just too enjoyable, finding a good pattern for a yarn you’ve had around for ages… I’ve started to crochet, not one, but two cardigans this week! This is…

Pin Cushion
When a pin cushion is needed, of course we crochet one! A quick project made of scraps, filled with loose ends of yarn (good thing I didn’t throw them away yet then!) and a piece of cardboard – would be interesting to have it on my wrist otherwise! 😛 Back to the sowing machine! Today…

Speedy Hexagon Blanket #2
Haven’t seen this one in a while, eh? 🙂 I’m so happy with my choice of colours… Have yet to decide how large it’s going to be – I’ll probably just keep on working until I feel it’s enough. What about the golden colour? Make lines dividing the other colours a bit, or just around…

Julia’s Flower Tunic
I’ve crocheted myself to a bad inflammation in my shoulder… It’s so darn depressing, and absolutely not the way I had planned to end my summer holidays. How to pass the days when suddenly everything hurts? I’m feeling really sorry for myself, I can tell you! xP :@ Despite that, crazy as I am, I’m…
