The bulkiest winter....

Rasperry Beret...in a puff stitch,still thinkin'bout adding a visor.

 

Another test in puff stitch,brimmed this time

This yarn (arcrylic & wool blend) is perfect for Infinity scarfs or scowls...

works up so easy, this pink scowl is for Pops ; )

Love this light grey one, 1.80( around) x 20cm...

made 2 in different stitches,single and double yarn.

Just to see wich one gave the bulkiest effect.

Still figuring out a slouchy hat to go with it...would make a great (gift) set.

Earflaps...gotta love'm

XD

Baby sizes for earflaps..still a challenge,since I'm working without a pattern.

Dutch patterns are like some secret language to me...in english it makes a bit more sence ; )

But it's more fun to start with  a nice yarn and just see what comes out....

sometimes like reinventing the wheel -lol-

For now...at the end of 'summer'  working on some wearable,warm autumn /winter items.

Oooowkeee

Just one  summer holiday pic...the one that showes  how relaxed Portugal can be!?!

Even Sally is feeling so much better, at ease ; )

And trust me...we are workin'on  bein' seriously easy goin' ahahaa

Early Fall?

Looks  and feels like the end of something that was supposed to be summer...really didn't feel like posting pics of our summer vacation. Cause it means autumn is close...just doesn't feel ok here in Holland,where it seems like we're always waiting for better.
Better weather,better times,better...everything.
No i'm not depressed or down,in fact...I feel happy,looking at our near future....but where do you start explaining to friends and family?!?


Our here will be there in less than a year! We talk about it every day and we do know it's the right choice.
#tobeconnecticut ;)

P.S. Maybe I should  post more often..maybe I will....maybe it would be nice to know if there are friends and family members reading it....maybe in a while it is  a good blog to read,to see how we're doing ?!?
But hey..that's a lot a maybe's ^^

Mini Shoppings

Mini Market Bag...in pics it looks almost regular size,but it's perfect for a 6yr old ; ))

Almost there...

Waking up with a blue sky and sun...feels great,we've had a bit too much rain the last few weeks.
Last monday-morning-drama...ooh more like no-drama ahaha she was al done and ready 15mins earlier than usual...dressed for a warm,tropical day.
Friday summer vacation starts round 12...we'll have to wait  a few weeks till our Road-Trip to Portugal starts...can't wait!
I want to go ...yesterday!! 2 Wks Costa da Caparica,Praia de Saúde...on the beach :O
Start the day with a huge coffee,fresh bread and my toes in the sand...walkabout with Shortzz and Sally (before it's too crowded with people who can't understand a bully is not scary and just havin'fun ;))

Almost there....

Almost there......

Tuck Away Tote

Tried to follow a pattern..simply because I liked it,funny thing is - just can't do a pattern and leave it ahaha it always needs a Tools Twist...reason enough not to follow any pattern...start on  a bag and see how it grows ; )

SillyToolsBags ♥ For Sweet Girls

Guess I really need to find a way to sell my bags & totes!
