Are you knitting yet?

November is pretty much the start of the knitting season for me. I just started a spencer with burgundy yarn.

For inspiration and patterns you can take a look at my ETSY SHOP.

new: summer gilet crochet pattern

New design: the SUMMER GILET!

Hello June! Recently I made a summer gilet. This time, however, not knitted but crocheted!

Again with a cool & classy shoulder detail, just like the oversized knitted waistcoat, but with a different twist!

And I wouldn't be woodwoolstool if I didn't also write a summer gilet crochet pattern for you.

The gilet is a super stylish item for the upcoming season. You can wear it over a summer dress, but also over a t-shirt or shirt. Just right when it's a little cooler, but you don't want to wear a cardigan or jacket.

Do you need this summer gilet in your wardrobe?!

You can download the crochet pattern in my ETSY SHOP. The new summer gilet crochet pattern is available in English and Dutch version, with easy to follow description, diagram, many photos and video.

For orders in the Netherlands you can also send an email to info@woodwoolstool.com and I will send you the crochet pattern directly with a 'tikkie' of € 4,00.

Today i've declutterd my autumn-winter wardrobe.

You really have to be in the mood for this job, otherwise you only do it halfway and you might as well don't do it at all.
After storing the summer clothing few weeks ago, it was time to have a closer look at the AW wardrobe.

Some pieces in your wardrobe are simply timeless and you don't have to think about keeping them at all. I was going through the other pile of clothes, which I did not wear last year (or maybe only once) and probably won't wear it either this season.

Sometimes you just have to be honest with yourself. Some pieces I really love, but they are not me.

So today I've listed some dresses, cardigans, jackets, ankle boots and handbags on Vinted, a free marketplace for pre-loved fashion. The Don't-you-wear-it?-then-sell-it Vinted, you probably know.

I'm gonna give it a try and downloaded the Vinted app and took some pictures of clothes that I am going to offer.

You can find my tiny second hand shop under the name woodwoolwardrobe.
