blog boredom (again)

Hi! I am again getting bored by (french) blogs. Too much plastic, copy and exagerate pride. This must not prevent me to show you the nice vest from "A fine fleece", the sweetest knitting book ever. I love such rustic, poetic knits and yarns, and the fact...

Citron / Haïti

Avent

Hello there.... Not so many posts these times. I write more and more in my own black book and less on the Internet. Perhaps an excess of advertising and hype blogs makes me reluctant from all the web relationship? There are too many things to sell everywhere...
