Knitting and so on

I will probably never be able to sew anything remotely related to formal garments, but at least this weekend I made a t-shirt and a pair of comfortable pants for myself. And even though there are small mistakes, I am quite happy with the result.

Currently, my knitting mojo is really (, really) low. I have some vague ideas, that don't transform into concrete projects or - if I have ideas, they require some serious pattern writing and drawing, which I don't feel inclined to do or some thinking and calculating, for which I am too lazy.

So I can only post old stuff, here my Daisy Potholders - at least together with a fresh bake, a tasty Banana Bread.

The #knittingpattern for these potholders is available via Ravelry, Payhip and Lovecrafts:

I have published a new knitting pattern. It is the result of quite a long design process - starting in 2020 and involving a lot of knitting, ripping back, re-knitting, ripping back again, re-thinking, re-calculating etc. The final outcome is a colourful shawl, in bold neon colours that are reminiscend of the 1980s. It is also a lovely mixture of colours, textures and knitting directions, i.e. a bit of a challenging knit and not a beginner pattern.

Nearly finished knitting a 3rd version of a new hat pattern - this time long enough to have a folded brim.

A new knitting idea that works in general, but needs a little tweaking.
