Inspirations

There was a fleamarket in our neighbourhood, and I found some delicious blue mohair.
That will be a new Areia (pattern overhere)
It knits up very smoothly and quickly!
Veyla mittens are finished.
Knitted the second one partly during a very nice Etsy Meeting.
Went there with Kinchi, saw a lot of other Etsy people and talked with very inspirational people.
Thanks!


The pattern for Roodkapje will be online this coming weeks.
Its an easy crochet pattern, but with a great result!

red fingerless and white spinning

Last week I started knitting with Surpreme Possum Merino
(with possum fur, merino and silk)
pattern: Veyla by Ysolda
And last year I started spinning 5 different fibers
It was gifted during the Landelijke Spindag

Next week there's a new meeting, and I want to take this with me.


Yesternight, 1 fingerless mitten was finished
so soft and warm




and just the perfect warm red colour
