The rosé-dress... a long time project

LONG TIME PROJECT!

I am working at this dress for over one year!

I don´t know why, but somehow it seem never to be finished.

Have you had ever such a project?

Soon is summer and it would be so nice to wear it finally this year.

The pattern is a bit difficult at the top of the dress.

So if you´re a beginner you need to practice some parts with a separate yarn for example.

The main part with the increasing is quiet easy!

And I love the old-rose color!

I am planning to knit this dress some day with different colors.

It seems a bit boring with just one color.

But in the end I could wear a black belt and a blank bolero with it.

Or a dark pink jacket.

When you knit a dress only in one color you have much more choices with accessorizes.

HERE IS THE FREE LINK TO THE PATTERN:

baby blanket or tablecloth

I used all kind of yarns which were left.

Yarn´s are soft and no scratchy.

I will use this as a blanket for the cot or the buggy. :)

The pattern was easy to made.

The surrounding was just one row right, second row left and so on.

I took circular needle 4,5

and

crochet hook 3.

Yarn needed about 400 g.

For the salmon color I needed about 150 g.

Wine red about 150 g.

Lila about 100 g.

Here´s another picture of the same pattern.

6000 VISITS!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR INTERESTS!!!

I love the colors again!
Beautiful bright turquoise with the black!

Later there will come a dark turquoise edge.

So check out my next blog entry! 

Here you got a closer look on the top.

I am not sure if the sleeve is long enough. 

If they are to short I just will open them again and continue for maybe 5 more centimeters.

Broken round needle

Nice pattern going on at my newest dress.

I still have to knit about 15 cm and increase a bit more chains for the waist.

Size will be in S! Let´s see how I fit in it, as my baby bump is just growing.

:)

And by the way, I just sat on the needle and it broke in 3 pieces!

Shops are already closed, as it is Sunday evening...

So I hope the tape will last at least for this evening.

Tomorrow after work: shopping new needle in this size -.-

ARG!

Here we go again! Summerdress!

A new project going on!

I am knitting a nice dress for the summer.

Yarn I use is Drops Safran!

Check my Blog later for new pics!

Tunic for the summer or pregnancy

I finally finished my long-time project!

It took me about half a year to complete it, because of the beautiful pattern.

The backside.

I think I will wear this with a belt.

And when my tummy is slowly growing to the spring/summer, I will have a perfect dress even for hot days. 

:)

Side view with the belt

It was easy to knit, but the pattern will take you a long time!!!

The top.

Nice pattern in the yarn "Safran" from Drops.

Here is the free pattern on www.garnstudio.com:

simple nordic pattern for a men´s woolly hat

A very nice, simple woolly hat in Norwegian design.

It was very easy and fast to knit.

This hat is for men!

I used the Sport Twist yarn, which I got from Germany. This yarn is very soft and not scratchy.

You could use this hat during your ski holidays and the complete wintertime.

I made this in 3 days!

Perfect, self-made Christmas present for your boyfriend, husband, friend, brother....

HERE THE FREE PATTERN!

How many knits you make at one time???

It seems that I got so many ideas and that I want to complete them all NOW!

Here I show you my actual works which I knit and crochet.

Somehow it depends what kind of feeling I have, so it is good to have many works at the same time.

But first some different kind of yarn-sizes!

The turquoise is 50g Drops Safran.

A very cute soft yarn!

The black is 400g Twister Sport which I got from germany.

I love the giant wool!

<3

Twister Sport is very soft and thick yarn!

I knit a woolly hat with winter-star.

I think the Twister Sport yarn will be perfect for a woolly hat you use while sky or other winter-sports.

Then I have a rest of the nice red Drops Karisma yarn which I used for the red dress.

So I want to make foot or wrist warmers. 

Let´s see if the yarn enough.

And here is my all year-project crocheting project.

I made it in the wrong way at the beginning as you can see.

It should become a triangle-scarf.

The size is quiet big now but still not enough to get it around the neck.

I love the Novita Säde yarn with glitter and glamour. :)

But maybe because of the small A-Group yarn it takes years until it´ll be finished.

My lovely Safran-project.

I made it to a heart-form here, but that has nothing to do with what it´ll be to turn out later. ;)

I still do not want to tell what it will be. :)

Leave me a comment and try to figure out what I am doing ;)

THANKS FOR VISITING!
SHARE IT!

COMMENT IT!
LOVE IT!

the heart- a new project

HERE I GO AGAIN!

I USE THE "SAFRAN"-YARN FROM DROPS.

IT`S AS SLIPPERY AS MUSKAT AND STILL I ONLY HAVE STEEL-NEEDLES.
A BAMBOO OR WOODEN NEEDLE WOULD BE MORE PERFECT FOR THE WORK.

A LOVELY KNIT!

<3

VERY EASY AND FAST!

I HAVE TO GO ON FOR THIS UNTIL IT IS NEARLY 50 CM HIGH! 

WHAT WILL IT BE IN THE END???

CHECK OUT MY BLOG LATER FOR AN UPDATE AND THE FREE PATTERN :)

a fast update to the red dress

It´s growing nicely!

<3

Soon I am starting the sleeves!!!

KEEP IN TOUCH TO SEE THE FINAL DRESS!!!

<3

red dress growing

So far so good :)

The dress is getting shape slowly.

Looks like a skirt till now.

And I recognized that the edges are rolling.

I definitely have to iron this later!

Here the pattern again.

I use Drops Karisma for this work.

It is a very soft, woolly yarn.

Slippery for an iron-needle, but it works.

A box full of goodies arrived :D as do orders from friends :)

I got an order from a friend to knit the same dress I made earlier.

So I ordered the wished color for her in a nice Drops Karisma yarn.

Drops Karisma is a very soft and slippery yarn.

I knit it on a steel round needle, but I think a bamboo round needle is better for this yarn!

Well I do not have the bamboo round needle in the same size, so I am good with the steel one. :)

 I got my first order line!

1. I knit the nice dress for my friend:

http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/en/pattern.php?id=5578&lang=en

2. I knit a jacket for an old school friend, just after a picture she gave me. I hope I´ll manage through it.

3. I got an order for an bolero I made. 

4. And all between this I knit for a charity. 

I knit basic woolly hats and mittens for poor people and give them for free of course!

glitter shawl / triangle scarf

Here we go again! :)

So I use the rest of my nice Novita Säde yarn and decided to crochet a shawl.

It´ll be a triangle scarf, hopefully :)

I want to make a line-design, but I am not decided how I go on from now.

Check out my blog later for new photos!

HERE THE PATTERN!

JUST SOME LITTLE MISTAKES HERE AND THERE.

It was very new to me knit with pictures and structures.

It sits perfectly and hopefully keeps my head warm this winter :)
