An organizer for my knitting tools

Hi my dears!
The days aren't sunny this time and I have no opportunity to make good photos. But my wish to show you my new knitting organizer is stronger than the weather conditions. So here it is
 This thing is from two separate sides which connects with the hook&loop tape. It's very convenient because it's possible to leave unneeded one.

 You can put into many things you need because this type of locks allows this organizer to get wider.
Hope you like it. Enjoy your day. See you soon.

Winter patterns

Hi my dears!
Today I want to sow you my first experiments with seed bead in tatting. Please meet a new cuff.
The pattern of this cuff is partly mine. I use pure cotton threads and seed beads to make it. So I'm happy about results.

I use the beads instead of  button to lock this cuff.

Thank you for your visit, Enjoy your crafts.  See you soon.

Attractive yarn leftovers

Hi my dears!
Today I want to show you knitted and partly felted snood, I made it for the jewelry set.



I think it fits for ring and earnings.  It made like an endless scarf from tweed and plane wool yarns.
Thank you for your visit. See you soon.

Winter updates

Hi my dears!
I was so busy last two weeks. I was in a hurry to complete my hubby's sweater. And I made it, I did last stitches yesterday and wanted to make photos on the model ( my DH), but he wasn't in a mood for it. So I made a few photos without him and here they are:
   
The color of photos aren't true because of light. The real ones were in the previous post. Hope my dear model will be in a mood this weekend and I can show you this sweater.

When I was in my class I found the fabric which fits for the yarn I bought for my new cardigan. And of cause I took this without any hesitation. It's lovely one, isn't it?

 This is my new snood. It's from the liberty fabric, I love the print so much. I made it like endless scarf, it took 15 min and half a meter of fabric to make this.
 And in the end of the post I want to show you my the oxidized sterling silver and umber set which I got for Mother day. It's looks slightly strange but it fits a lot for my formal style. Love this set, thank you my DH.
Thank you for your visit. Enjoy your crafts.See you soon.

Almost ready....

Hi my dears!
When the world waits for  summer I still prepare my family for winter. It's coming so soon. Nights and mornings are already cold.  I've  taken our warm clothes and  suppose that a pair of new knits wouldn't go amiss.

 ...this is the process of making my hubby's sweater. The pattern of cables I took from The Knitter magazine. The yarn is 100% Peruvian Highland wool I got from Knitpicks last week.   

Have you ever made a tweed fabric? I've made. The photo bellow shows what I got. I took the thin wool with the needles s3 and knitted using a herringbone stitch. The thing I made I'll show later. Let it be a secret yet. 
... and I'm still in process of making my daughter's quilt, I need to make a few patches to complete it, Hope it happens soon.
 and my lovely process is the lace. It's my favorite one. It's not so fast because it's not so urgent.
Thank you for your visit. Enjoy your crafts. See you soon.

Tatted collar

Hi dear readers!

Let me show you today a new collar. It's not the time to make the similar things because  winter is coming but I decided to complete all the current processes and only after that  start new ones. This collar was the first completed because it does not need to sit all the time on the firm chair ( I've got a flue last Wednesday). So next in the line is the quilt and a box for tatting stuffs.


about this collar.... This pattern is from the Pascale Provost book. It took a week to make it. The pattern is very easy. If you are interested in this pattern I can sent you just let me know.  
Thank you for your visit. Enjoy your day. See you soon.

Processes

Hi dear readers!
Today I want to show you my current processes and  other interesting things. I'm still making my daughter's quilt, because other interesting things put me off it. The photos bellow are the butterfly patches variations and embroidered "friends" patch.


This is one of four similar patches. I bought the fabric for stripes but the print seems me interesting but so boring and I decided to make an embroidery using a print like a pattern. One is ready. 
Three others are in a line ;-)

.... making a collar
 ...and this is Lithuanian flax (linen threads), I bought it on Etsy. It's a 1 pty thread. I'm going to use them for hand quilting because the thread is very firm (don't need to wax). I suppose that  it's even suitable for heavy duty sewing.
 I got an interesting Japanese book how to make  hats. All the instructions are in Japanese, but patters, schemes and photos are very friendly.
Thank you for your visit. See you soon.
