W is for weekend

A (quite rare) weekend off.

Saturday morning with plenty of time to set the table festively and enjoy a delicious breakfast.

We both have a soft spot for setting the table nicely and literally pull out all the stops to make it as fun as possible.

Gradually we are decorating the house in a Christmas atmosphere, lights in the ginkgo tree, a star with lights in the kitchen window and Christmas greenery at the front door.

The grey W sweater was a joke-gift from Henk (woodwoolstool workwear) and the striped midi pencil skirt I've made some years ago. You can download the pattern in my ETSY SHOP.

Have a great weekend y'all!

January seems endless.

Perfect weeks to watch movies or read on the sofa and craft (kind of hibernation mode).

Time for another crochet project.
I picked some colors from the wool cabinet for a new skirt.
It's an easy and fun project to work and a striking skirt for every season.
The first pencil skirt I made with 100% wool from Marrakech in 5 different colors.
I hardly wear it, because the wool is itchy and uncomfortable.
So I'm gonna give it another try.
This time I'm not using carpet wool, but a softer type of yarn.

It's also a great project to use your yarn leftovers.

The midi pencil skirt has a nice fit, because the soft crochet-fabric is stretchable.

You can download the STRIPED MIDI PENCIL SKIRT PATTERN in my ETSY shop, available in English or Dutch version.

I love midi skirts. Always have, because they are elegant, feminine and sophisticated.
