FO: Fjäril Mini
And here we have it – Fjäril has transformed into Fjäril Mini! I did the yellow one first, but even though Svarta Fårets Tilda is a really soft and nice cotton/acrylic blend, it doesn’t work at all with lace. And, my knitting was a bit uneven, which wasn’t saved by blocking. So, on with another…

Not to…

FO: Hot Pink Bolero
Phew, what a week! Now we’ve sold our apartment, and contracts have been signed. Unfortunately we didn’t get back the money we paid for it four years ago, but it was either this or bothering with renovating the old bathroom ourselves, before trying to sell again. Now I really hope I…
