Just another pillow.....

Some years ago I bought the book "Great American Aran Afghan" also

called GAAA, and with big enthusiasm

I started to knit the first blocks of the 24 different ones in this

beautiful afghan..

After 5 blocks I gave it up, it was too much

work, and the blocks were getting more and more difficult,

so I sold the book and put the project away.....

 The blocks just showed up again while

I was unpacking another box in the attic

I saw four of the blocks together, and with big brother's

old jeans as backing,

It is now our new pillow!

I am enjoying the dark autumn evenings in my corner,

 enjoying my favorite cup of tea and knitting socks for the

 toodlers while the rain is tromming on the windows...

Have a nice evening and thanks for stopping by!

FIGGJO turi - design UPDATE!

Earlier this year, I wrote about my Figgjo collection,

and I could not decide which one to collect,

Lotte or Market by "Turi-design"...

As you can see here, I decided on "Lotte" 

I love the simplicity of the form and intricacy

of the silkscreened line drawing..

The color palette of blue, violet and olive green on

white background is quite unique as well

I am still adding on to my "Lotte" collection ..

HAVE A NICE WEEK END!

MITTS FOR MY LITTLE PRINCESS

I have crochet fingerless mitts for my little princess ,

 I did not have any pattern,

but had seen some similar pictured in a magazine.

I used Drops alpacca wool and needle nr. 3,5.

I am very pleased with the way they turned out,

and so is my princess!

If you like to order some for a princess in your life,

I sell them in my epla store...

Have a good week and thanks for stopping by!
