Moving slowly...

Moving slowly...
There are many things moving here, but lots of them are moving slowly. Like the fylingdales (ravelry link, a great model), waiting after a fair isle project and Ysolda's doll. The wool is Green Mountain Spinnery Mohair and I love it... I don't use a spare...

Adventurous

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...

Saint Noël à toutes!
Georges de la Tour Cette année j'ai eu la chance de "profiter" de l'avent. Depuis que j'ai arrêté de travailler - si on peut dire ça comme ça - le temps s'écoule différemment. J'en ai été apaisée, j'espère que ça a rejailli sur la maison et la famille...J'espère...

Time is spinning fast!

Time is spinning fast!
Pfew, sometimes you wonder how time could go so quickly! It's time for kings, and a giant home-made galette (always form the same book), then for a birthday cake, homemade blinis, other birthday cakes. Then time to lose the 4.5mm needles you thought you...
