Powder Stripes Shawl

Hello guys! I’m glad to be back and working after I inevitably got infected with Omicron a couple of weeks ago and had my fair share of all its symptoms. I feel much better now and hope to regain my full strength soon! And that’s why, due to my health state, this shawl took a relatively long time to finish, though it’s here at last! I think my saving grace was that it was an easy knit, the yarn colors are also very easy on the (tired) eyes and didn’t give me a hard time during my illness. As it is a quick work, it could be a great gift for the coming spring weeks with all its lovely occasions. The pattern is simple and consists of 20 rows that are worked using each yarn color alternately. I hope you enjoy making this beautiful shawl, and I wish you all a very healthy spring!

Heart of Hearts Valentines Beret

 

Hello everyone! It's not usual for me to knit for Valentine’s Day, but I got inspired this year, and thought, why not make a heart themed item that can be a quick gift for a loved one. So, this beret is what I bring you for this year's Valentine’s. I’ve knitted two versions with different yarn weights, as you will see in the rest of this post. For version A, I worked with worsted yarn and used 5 and 6 mm needles, which produced a hat that turned out very big with a loose fit. As for version B I switched to a multi colored, sport weight yarn, which I knitted using 4 and 4.5 mm needles. The resulting hat was more fitted this time. I personally think that both versions have their own charm, so it is up to you to decide which one to make based on what fit you prefer. Hope you all have a love filled Valentine’s Day!

Year of the Tiger Granny Square

Hello everyone! Wow, how time flies by! 2022 is here, and January is almost over. So it must be time to add a new granny square to my collection. It's the year of the tiger this time around, and let me tell you, it was a real challenge for me to make this one. I spent so many days researching both real, and crocheted tigers trying to come up with a good design. What I found more intriguing and charming was the white tiger rather than the orange one; they are quite majestic looking, their cubs are super cute, and to be honest with you, their color scheme can be interpreted somehow easier than the more known orange tigers. I hope I've caught your interest with this year's zodiac granny square of mine. Wish you all happy and warm days!

Merlin Sage Shawl

Happy New Year everyone! This is my first shawl in 2022, so I'm starting with one of my favorite designs to make, an asymmetrical shawl. This one features a pattern with diamonds and big eyelets. As I say every time, once you start working the pattern, you'll find out how easy it is, and knitting it will go smoothly. A bonus feature for this shawl is that you can repeat the general pattern as many times as you want until you get the size you desire. I also included a video tutorial for the I-cord bind off method, which many of you have asked me about before. With so many ideas and new designs on my mind, I promise you numerous new knitting and crochet projects, with easy instructions and awesome designs. So, stay tuned for all my upcoming posts and have fun knitting!
