The days are getting shorter and the warmth from the summer sun is gone. How lovely it is to nestle down in this lovely, textured sofa blanket, the head on the cushion, with a hot cup of tea, some biscuits and knitting or a book. ;)

Is your cat as curious as mine? He is observing what happens outside, if the wind blows a leaf in the air, a passenger walks by, a bird sitting in the tree… nothing will disrupt his attention while he is sitting behind the window.

These fingerless mitts are a mostly plain stockinette/jersey pattern with garter rounds, knitted from the bottom-up.

This lovely coasters match the to(wel) Valentina. Knit the smallest size of the towel Valentina as a square for your tea pot and use this pattern to knit the coaster for your cups.

After having my lovely sofa blanket, I had the need of one or two matching cushions.

I love the look and fit of this heel, which is usually worked from the top down. As I love knitting my socks toe-up, I have done several attempts to adapt this heel.

Nearly a plain jersey sock knitted toe-up. Just three triangles on each sock, each triangle is textured in a different way. The gusset gives more ease and the heel is shaped with short rows.

Another kitchen towel or guest towel from the To(wel) series. This time with a diamond pattern, which looks good on both sides.

Looking at a map from Montreal inspires me to this sock pattern. The streets look like perfectly parallel to each other, like lines. The streets are perpendicular, which looks like squares on the map of the town center.

What shall I knit with my handspan yarn? This was the question I have all the time when I look at my handspan yarn. I don’t want to „waste“ it as it took time to spin it and I just love the finished skein.

It is a perfect project for all these little leftovers all knitters have.

This sock is designed to fit a small/medium/large foot but the lace will give it a stretchier fit, I advise a little negative ease in length and width to give a comfortable fit inside shoes.

Cularo is the old name for Grenoble in France. This town is situated in a valley with looks like an Y, surrounded by 3 mountain chains and the cable pattern makes me think of this valley where we live. The straight cable pattern reminds me the traces of bikes in the snow and the twisted rib stitch looks a bit like all the trees you can see on t...

The inspiration for this set came when I preparing my stall for the Lot et laine, a wool festival in the south of France. As we did camping, I needed something small and lightweight to take with me, which I could use on a table or on the lawn.

The spring awakening starts at the bottom of the bag, where the first leaves starts, then on top of the bag, there are a lot of leaves and a bit later in spring, there will be berries (on the handle). Two littles leaves escape from the others and are wound around the handle.

You can built your own sock, using the order of the charts you want have, start with the pattern on the leg, choose one pattern only for the whole sock. It’s up to you and your imagination!

A bit of lace, some geometric designs and beads makes it feminine and a little glamorous.

Another boy sock? Not really, everybody could wear this textured sock! And everybody can knit this sock. All you need to know are knit and purl stitches for the motif, increase stitches for the toe and the heel and decrease stitches for the heel. I added links where you can get explications about the special techniques as the cast on, magic loo...

Long time ago, I saw a bag in leather, with attachments on the side, which looked like a pipe. I liked the look of this bag very much as the attachments on the side gave it an unusual look. The bag was completely open, what I found very useful as it is easy to put something inside or to take out.

Sid needed a cosy for this brand new tablet. As I bought some times ago a lovely one for my computer from Bolsarium, Barcelona. I really like the flap as it is easy to put my computer in it and it is safe inside.

I designed this toe-up sock pattern for my godmother. She loves her garden with the flowers and trees. As her birthday is in October, these socks have big leaves falling down the socks as do the leaves of the trees and some little leaves are running around the leg to show that not all vegetation lost its leaves.

A model like no other… frilly, beaded and openwork for this fully lined thong. Dare to knit it?

Die Idee zu diesem Schal ist entstanden als ich mein Modell Summer Rain mit einem selbstgesponnen Garn stricken wollte. Da es mir schwer fällt ein Modell mehrmals zu stricken, habe ich die Bordüre verändert, damit diese noch luftiger wirkt.

This Kerchief starts at top of the triangle. It has a garter border all around. There are two buttonholes on one side of the upper border and a button on the other side to tie it. You can also wear it around your neck.

The shawl is knit from top down starting with a garter tab cast on and continues with stockinette stitch, beads and some lace between the stockinette stitch sections.

L’inspiration pour ce châle m’est venue cet été en pensant à une pluie d’été, qui commence par quelques petites gouttes, s’accentue et tombe finalement drue.

I was searching for a toe-up pattern to fit my child’s feet. As I haven’t found the “right” pattern, I decided to create one with 48 sts/round as I prefer to have a little bit negative ease for socks.
