cup and knitting

Although I show all traits of a crochet person throughout the year, I have noticed that there is a different kind of craft that allures me during the holiday season.
It’s knitting.
Sweet knitting.
I don’t really understand why this keeps happening to me, but I can see clearly that each year around Christmas I find myself working enthusiastically on a new knitting project.
Maybe it’s all about the gorgeous sound of needles at work that adds to the delightfulness of holidays and makes this time even more spectacular. Who knows…

Christmas knitting

This year I am working on a special project that is making me very, very happy. I can’t wait to show you the result.
And, by the way, do you have any special craft or hobby that calls your name during the holidays? Do share!
With lots of love,
Petra

colorful crochet granny squares

I am wishing you a happy New Year, dear friends!
May it be blessed, lucky and amazing for you all!
My first days of the new year have been filled with a lot of beautifully relaxing crochet. And knitting too.
I have actually realized that I have 3 projects in progress these days.
First of them, my Color Burst Blanket, is gaining its ‘square power’ rather quickly. What a delightful work that is!

knitted basket stitch scarf

I started a green knit scarf. I admit, I love knitting simple scarves just like this basketweave one. I have also realized that when it comes to scarves, I quite often find myself reaching for color green. Who knows why… Anyhow, the basketweave stitch is inspired by my sweet childhood memory – a sweater that my sweet Mom made for me as a present. I loved it so much and will never forget the moment I received it.

crochet earflap beanies with braids

And then, I tried my hand at my first crochet earflap beanies. It’s a fun project. And really easy as well. I see more of these in my life, I guess. Perhaps I’ll make a pattern too.
Do you have any handmade work in progress right now? Do tell! I would love to know.
With love,
Petra
