...my previous post and I don't know how many of you, knitters and friends out there, are still interested in reading my posts. It's totally my fault, of course, as I have been hibernating for quite some time, but it certainly wasn't intentional on my part. I will tell you all about it in a …
...a week earlier than I expected! I am so greateful that my wonderful group of test knitters completed the test so early (this also means it is a really quick knit, the perfect summer project). Tolerante is the second shawl pattern from the series The Peace Trilogy. Its name refers to tolerance, of cource; the …
... the first in a series of 3 patterns under the name “The Peace Trilogy”. The “peace” I refer to is rather an inner feeling, a state of mind and an attitude. Knitting is a way of expression and colors communicate various mood changes. I found myself opting for these happy, bright yet quiet colors …
As I go through my 2018 self-published patterns, I feel so blessed that I am able to do what I love and to love what I do: knitting is a very solitary occupation, even when you are surrounded by knitters you are the one in charge of your project, it is the result of your …
I do not consider myself a prolific pattern author; living is not as easy as I would like it to be, at least not here in Greece and this can be quite stressful. I know knitting is supposed to free you from stress and this is true. Releasing a pattern is a slow procedure, especially …
...start!!! Yes, you can finally start the official MKAL knitting and, if you haven't, you can always sign up and start knitting, there is plenty of time for you to start working on that #mindlessknitting project! As you may know, a Holiday Season MKAL has become a happy habit for me; I know that knitters …
...the release of the first clue of the Season's MKAL and I'm so happy for this new collaboration with an Indie Yarn Dyer from Italy: Betta calls her yarn "Le Tinte del Bosco", which refers to the way she treats yarn and the natural dyes she uses to create her palette. She told me she …
...is a garter and lace shawl, what else? It's called "Season's MKAL" and it starts on December 13, 2018.Well, after all, it is the most wonderful time of the year or should I say the busiest one? Probably both, but knitters are multi-taskers, so, you can squeeze in another project, just for the fun of …
This pattern belongs to the series of “Le emozioni che nessuno vuole” (the emotions nobody wants). Sara Sol had this wonderful idea, to create special colorways for these “negative” emotions, these feelings we do our best to avoid. We know we can’t. Life is that way; so, we better deal with them, understand why they …
... is a multi-colored thriagular shawl that will give you the chance to enjoy playing with color and work on a project that can be easily taken outdoors: in fact, I made sure both the increase rate and the eyelet pattern can be easily memorized. You will only have to look into the pattern instructions …
...is not a huge number, but it is a milestone when you are an independent knitwear designer, coming from a country barely traceable in the world map and trying to make a place among the thousands of remarkable designers who present their work on Ravelry! Back in those days, when I announced my first pattern …
... the Ultimate Stashbuster Shawl! Make space for new yarn goodies! Knit up these precious leftovers! Garter Stitch, a rather simple Slipped Stitch pattern and a modified Fishtail Lace motif (see? no hidden info here). The surprise is the sequence of colors as they follow each other and blend together in beauty. I used some …
