Blogging. Knitting. Sewing.
I’m trying to be a good knitter at the moment. A really, really good knitter. And it takes all my willpower to do so. What I mean by that, you ask? Well. I’m trying to knit my stash before I buy anymore yarn. What’s more, I’m trying to finish projects that have been living in…

This cardigan is definitely too warm for the current weather, but I actually finished it during the past winter and only now got around to take pictures of it. Truth be told, it was a Christmas present for Phil. (Why can I never finish Christmas presents on time?)The pattern is from the book “Son of…

Boy. That was some knitting project. I started the Tangled Yoke Cardigan in March of this year and worked on it on and off until now. It’s a great pattern, don’t get me wrong! It’s challenging, but I loved the little technical details. I can truly say I learnt much knitting this cardigan. It just…

After my plans for the graduation dress failed thanks to its especially Disney-princess-y sleeves, I sort of lost my sew-jo. I’ll eventually finish it when I work up the energy to cut new sleeves (thanks for your help, by the way, you’re all great!), but for now I needed something simple to clean my palate.…

I created this blog so I could share my finished objects and find like-minded people with whom I can talk about knitting and sewing! I always enjoy exchanging thoughts,…

I’ve been anxiety knitting a lot lately – I’m surprisingly fast when I anxiety knit, especially when my to-do list is full of items I want to avoid doing -, and now I actually finished the back and front piece, and the first sleeve! Well, the sleeves are a fairly quick knit anyway since they…

I’ve made good progress on my Delphine pullover! I got used to the pattern, and after a while it didn’t feel like quite such a slog anymore. When I was able to knit on it, that is, because it’s important to regularly pet the most adorable knitting companions in the world! Delphine is a raglan…

It’s that time of the year again! My summer clothes are going into storage, and I’ve moved my winter clothes out of the basement into my wardrobe. I’ve used this to overhaul my closet, donating clothes I didn’t wear anymore, or wore only out of a sense of oligation to sustainability. In the process I…

I admire people whose wardrobe is entirely handmade. A few years ago I had the same goal, but I’ve slowly given up on it. Sometimes it’s nice to just buy something that’s literally ready to wear. I try to shop sustainable and socially conscious if possible though, which has gotten easier ever since I’ve had…

My friend Dominique, who I’ve known since school, has given birth to a baby girl recently! I’m still amazed that I’m at the age where people marry and give birth. It feels so grown up! Obviously that notion is fully ridiculous, as I’m in my thirties. (I’ll lose my delusions at some point, hopefully.) Anyway,…

I finally finished something! Considering how slow I’ve been with my crafting in the past few months, this is quite a feat. I had actually started the Firebird Socks back in 2019, but after I realized I’d have to frog and start anew for the second time I lost all motivation. It took a bit…
