...has been an issue for some months now and I am sure you have bumped into some post or another on IG or Twitter, not to mention Ravelry (a great discussion has taken place there). I admit that my first reaction upon reading these posts and comments was: well, for those of us who live …
...which is already up on Ravelry and available at half price for the exact 48 hours after its release! This means you need no coupon, you just add the .pdf to your cart and at the checkout you get the pattern at half price. The only restriction is ...well, time! This promo ends at February …
You may have noticed that I have been flirting with the "lace'n'garter" hashtag for quite some time; well, the more I use it the most confident I am about it. Although I have worked with various stitch patterns and techniques, in fact I have even designed brioche and/or mosaic and stranded colorwork items and will …
...coming up by the end of January is my first knitting pattern for 2019. Fika is a Swedish word which refers to " a coffee and cakes break" which should happen everyday and in the company of good friends and family. Can you think of a better start for a new year? As the holidays …

I will enjoy serving freshly …

...listening to "The Little Book of Hygge" by Meik Wiking and I confess, I got hooked. It describes the Danish way of living every moment and savouring little things in life in such an appealing way. I just love listening to audiobooks, I suspect all knitters do, and this one was just perfect for this …
...is traditionally served on Christmas Day; every bakery in town prepares fluffy, elaborate breads you can buy to enjoy with the special meals on Christmas Day. I always bake ours and I must say this year I used the "baguettes" recipe from the Craftsy class I had taken last summer: it was the best Christmas …
...a hat pattern I just released and my 100th published pattern, so, this one is a milestone. That's why I want to be able to share this (very simple, yet elegant) hat pattern with all the knitters out there, so, for a few days it will be free for download; yes, free, hurry up, my …
