Brooklyn Tweed Kids – Berenice

Juni 23, 2014 0 comments Article review

Brooklyn Tweed has done it again – a new pattern collection is out, this time it’s stuff for kids. It’s a cute one for sure with classic designs, clean lines, slightly new interpretations on traditional styles. I like it a lot! But as for all BT pattern collections it probably all depends on the yarn. Read More

Die verstrickte Dienstagsfrage 25/2014

Juni 18, 2014 0 comments Article dienstagsfrage

Oft ist es so, daß gerade das Modell, in das man sich unsterblich verliebt hat, nicht in der eigenen Größe verfügbar ist. Insbesondere deutsche Anleitungen sind in ihrem Größenspektrum ja oft sehr eingeschränkt. Was macht Ihr, wenn Eure Größe nicht dabei ist? … http://daswollschaf.wordpress.com/2014/06/17/die-verstrickte-dienstagsfrage-252014/ Lange nicht mehr mitgemacht, dabei lese ich die Antworten immer so Read More

Me Made May

Juni 16, 2014 0 comments Article FO, projects, WIP

Über manche Sachen stolpert man im Internet und wundert sich, worum es dabei geht. „Me Made May“ ist eines von diesen Phänomenen. In einigen Blogs hatte ich es gelesen und gesehen, konnte mir aber gar nichts drunter vorstellen. Und als ich dann endlich kapiert hatte, worum es geht, da war es schon zu spät noch Read More

Knitting on the Road

Mai 23, 2014 0 comments Article travels, WIP

Visiting family for us means at least a couple of hours on the road at the best of times. Or in case of my in laws it means more than 400 km which can add up to 4 to 5 hours in the car. Thanks to the ingenuousness of Apple products at least Little Girl Read More

Blossoms

Mai 17, 2014 0 comments Article FO

Weather around these parts has been very unsteady and downright depressing over the last month. We’ve had and early spell of warmth followed by a sharp turn into frosty temperatures. And of course the rain always hits in time for the weekend. Now this yearly cold snap that’s called ‚Frost Saints‘ (Eisheiligen) in German is Read More

Schnullerkette

Mai 10, 2014 0 comments Article FO, projects

I really have no idea what „Schnullerkette“ is called in English. Pacifier lanyard? Soothie clip? Well, it’s this thing where one end is clipped to the baby’s clothing and to the other one you attach a pacifier. Little Mr. T needed a new one because the old lanyard got chewed through after half a year Read More

Boxy Shirt

The fashion industry sucks, that’s probably what most of us have thought at one point or another. Especially if you are not stick thin and fitting into ridiculously small sizes for an adult woman. But sometimes you strike luck and the trend seems to go into a wearable direction. A few months ago I stumbled Read More

The Year of the Cat

April 19, 2014 0 comments Article FO

Enter Amineko, the most famous cat of all. It has even got their own Facebook page. Those two cute guys were made on special request of two adorable little boys, who were missing their tomcat something fierce after he joined all the cats that have gone before him. This has been my first foray into Read More

New Needles: KnitPro Bamboo, Naturals Symfonie and Karbonz

November 21, 2013 0 comments Article review

It always seems to be the same story: you’ve got lots and lots of knitting needles and exchangeable needle tips in your stash but somehow somewhere this particular size you would need for today’s project seems to have disappeared. Or are stuck in some unknown project. And wasn’t this the size you hardly ever needed Read More
