Narsissi

30 March 2017 • Leave a Comment

A few days ago, I published my first knitting pattern of 2017 : Narsissi… Narsissi is a lovely pair of delicate and feminine fingerless mittens that I imagined for a magazine. Sadly, they didn’t choose it. As it kept lingering in my mind, I decided to publish it on my own !

7 February 2017 • Leave a Comment

2016 was a very productive year, particularly because baby knits are fast to make… But I blogged about none of them and, with lots of finished projects, I didn’t know where to start… Today’s prompt of Yarn Love Challenge showed me the way : Stripes… So, I will show you not one, but two striped projects…

Cookie Surprise

22 November 2016 • Leave a Comment

I have lots and lots of finished projects to show you (some from quite a while ago), but let’s talk first about the latest knitting pattern I published last week : Cookie Surprise. When I went to Paris last January, I went, as usual, at L’OisiveThé and La Bien Aimée to say Hi and pet some beautiful yarns, such as CoopKnit Sock Yeah ! 🙂 Aimée offered me to create a shawl pattern with this exact yarn, with one goal : it had to be easy for knitters who want to begin lace knitting. I said Yes immediately (who can resist beautiful yarn ?), but told her it would be published before Fall, beacause I had other projects to finished first… And I went home with 4 lovely skeins in my bag (quite reasonnable, no ?)… I barely got home that I already had an idea : triangular shawl, garter stitch, lace arrows… I swatched and did all the math, but I had to put aside for awhile to finish other things.

Autumn adventures

17 October 2016 • Leave a Comment

Aventures d’automne (Autumn adventures) is the 3rd pattern I created around the 4 seasons, after Doux Printemps and Rêves d’été. For this season, I knew what I wanted to make : a cowl, easy to slip on when you go outside to enjoy the lasts bits of sun, when it is  begginning to get a bit cold… I imagined a big braid, some zigzags and twisted stockinette to have a bit of structure. From the first sketch to the final sample, for once, I had no change of mind, no issue…

Rêves d’été (aka Summer Dreams) is the last pattern I published on June 20th, for summer, in partnership with Cécile La Fée Fil. It is the second knitting pattern I’ve imagined in my 4-seasons collection, right after Doux Pintemps (Sweet Spring). I must say it gave me a hard time…

29 April 2016 • Leave a Comment

I hesitated a lot before publishing this post. Because, by end of April, hat and mittens are not really seasonal items anymore… But the weather from the last few days showed me we still needed them, so…

A quick small gift : (Petit) Artichaut

19 April 2016 • Leave a Comment

Today, we visited friends to eat some cakes and meet there youngest daughter. Long before the birth (4 months ago), I knew I wanted to gift her a small knitted gift which would be really appreciated, I knew it, by the parents. But, until four days ago, when we finally found a day to see each other, I had done nothing !
