Crochet Coasters

We recently renovated our kitchen. It was a project we were planning for 10 years and finally did it. For the new kitchen, one needs new coasters. So, I made few in candy colors.

Even the Pink Fluffy Unicorn loves these.

New Year, New Beanie

I decided to start the new year with a new beanie. It was made to match my scarf that I made already last year. Fengshui.

Happy 2017!!!

The picture was taken in the elevator of H&M (Helsinki), where there are mirrors everywhere, even on the ceiling.

Leg warmers

It is winter and getting cold, although we are seriously missing snow in Helsinki. In ballet, it is essential that the ankles are warm (and after the Achilles operation last spring, I am super-cautious). These cute leg warmers will do the trick. 

.. and these are street credible as well. Will try tomorrow, on my way to work.

Looked cool today!

Poncho like a candy

This candy-color yarn was impossible to resist in a yarn shop I visited in Kallio (Helsinki) the beginning of summer. I bought a few grams in baby blue and a few grams in multi-candy-colors, and started crocheting flower-squares.

I made a few squares, 24 of each color, to be exact.

After that, a bit of sewing together.

And ... surprisingly, I ended up with a poncho. My favourite piece of cloth!

This poncho is a birthday gift for my sister daughter Lumi, who just turned 12. We did the fitting today and delivery will be next Saturday in the party.

P.S. The little model here is not the birthday girl.

Earrings to match the top

For the brand new light blue top, I also needed earrings.

Light blue flowers to complete the summer look.

Summer crochet top

My crohet top for this summer 2016 is light blue. I seem to have a blue period in my crocheting.

The pics were taken in beautiful Arild, Sweden.

The top is made out of squares and rectangulars. Easy and quick to make.

Be happy with crutches - Episode 2

A friend of mine walks with crutches as well. A couple of weeks ago he ordered these leg warmers from me. Lots of color and fox-theme was the brief. I delivered these last week. Hope they lighten up the day 😉
