Adventurous
I wanted to cut - sigh- my handwoven fabric and to try to make a coat. I've received "Basic Style" from junku.fr, which provided easy to understand patterns, designed for children. Let's try it! The goal is to cut as little as possible, sew as little...

Heavenly
What do you do when there is only 9 skeins left of a delighfull Jamieson's "Fjord" tweed? And that the weather gets really really cold and rainy in Paris... at least for a few days. Each skein is only 25g (2 oz), and it is either too much or too few to...

Weaving

Weaving
I use leftovers from former projects. It takes a long to prepare and plan, but once on the loom weaving goes very fast! Pour tisser, j'utilise les restes de mes projets... Un reste de pull pour enfant, de gilet Rowan, d'écharpes au crochet. Une fois passé...

American bread...

American bread...
Yes it works! Really no trick. Thank you Geninne and NY Times! L'Amérique, l'autre pays du Pain. Après 3 ans de trahisons par la machine à pain et les levures truquées, j'ai trouvé LA recette qui ne nécessite ni farine spéciale, ni machine à pain, ni...

Monday in the sun
Spring is time for carding, washing fleece! Eucalan makes it so easy - with the spin cycle of my washing machine... La belle saison est de retour, temps idéal pour laver et carder une toison... Merci Eucalan!

What am I doing now?

What am I doing now?
Hmm... What am I doing now? Such tiny needles (2.5mm) and an unusual - for me - cotton. Anyway! Qu'est-ce que je fais donc, à m'être lancée vaillamment dans du 2,5mm, du coton en plus! What do you guess? A votre avis?
