late summer living

New art on the wall.

Love these late summer days and the new view.

The vintage Geoffrey Harcourt chair is dressed in an old crocheted tablecloth and my handmade LOVE cushion.

You can download the filet crochet pattern in my ETSY SHOP.

colorful & personal gift

This cool colorful blanket i recently made for Imme, the adorable son of my niece Afra from London. It's becoming a tradition, because I once made a harlequin blanket for his sister Mika. (obviously several blankets voor Liam)

And there is another grand-nephew in the family on the way, so i'm about to crochet a new baby blanket project. It's is a relaxed and fun job and if I'm lucky I can do some crochet in the March sunshine in the garden.

If you want to make an original handmade maternity gift (or baby birthday gift), you can download the striped baby blanket crochet pattern from my E T S Y shop.

knitting pattern - leftover spencer (english version)

NEW DESIGN

The knitted leftover spencer!

Yesterday I already launched the knitting pattern in my native language, today the English version is ready.

The good thing is that you already have the required yarn in stock. You don't have to buy any yarn at all, it doesn't matter what colors you use, because in the end your version will be perfect and unique.

So if you feel like making it too? Jump to my Etsy shop and promise to show me your version, once it's finished!
