Dear users, dear authors,
dear little elves,
have you been busy this week? Have you already been able to finish a craft project or a project in real life, or do you need more time?
I wish you a pleasant week.

Josefa, I have projects during and after the current one, before the next one :-) So as long as I can operate the sewing machine, there’s hardly an end in sight :-) ;-) In addition to my sewing projects for the Kindertafel, I still have two knitting projects on the needles: one is my leftover-yarn blanket, and I’ve also started knitting a belt in garter stitch. But with both projects, I can only work on them sporadically, because my hands aren’t too fond of knitting at the moment.
Then I still have a few embroidery files ahead of me that need to be digitized, so as you can see, I won’t be running out of projects anytime soon :-)

Best regards, Inge

Almost done with the embroidery. Then it’s off to the sewing machine to finish it up.

Last night I finished my new raglan sweater made from sock yarn. It’s very cozy, soft, and warm—just what I need right now.

Wow, Moni, your sweater looks great. I love the subtle color choice with the contrasting stripes. I’d want to wear it right away, too.
What kind of sock yarn is that? What color?
Could you crochet it, too?

Hugs, Andrea

Thank you, Andrea and Inge, for your compliments :))

Andrea, this is beautifully soft sock yarn with bamboo fiber. The main color is a delicate orange-pink. I liked it right away.

The sock yarn is from Rellana—4-ply Flotte Socke Bamboo Merino Celebration.

I keep getting tempted by Rellana and ordered 10 skeins of it. But I only needed 2 1/2 skeins for the sweater. It goes a long way.

Love, Monika

That sweater is really gorgeous!
I’ve started a summer sweater now, but I can take my time with that—it’s snowing here right now. 🤣
