Damson for myself

I enjoyed knitting this new pattern by Ysolda, Damson, and it is also a shawl that is confortable to wear on the shoulders. I used a Fleece Artist's yarn with seacell fibers...a lot of fun to knit.

Finally it is getting cooler here in Italy and I can wear it on my shirts. We have had about 27-30 degrees Celsius...and at the beginning of October it is quite unusual. I must say that I am happy to see clouds and rainy weather...

Mormor's Shawl for the girls

My girls had asked for a shawl. Even if it is a hot autumn here in Italy I thought that the time had arrived to knit them one. And it had to be the Mormor's Shawl I had designed and created for their great-grandmother's birthday earlier this year. It is a quick project and the girls are so happy.

Le ragazze volevano uno scialle e, nonostante, il caldo autunno mi sono sentita pronta per il progetto. Ho voluto usare il modello che ho creato per il compleanno della loro bisononna in primavera, perché avesse un significato speciale. E' stato un progetto veloce e le creature sono felicissime.

And this one is for CdM

Other two Allegra's Covers

When I saw little Gregorio (four days old) I had to knit another cover (the light green one in the first picture). He is so tiny, so tender, so ...little that I couldn't stop thinking of knitting another blanket for this new baby. So I did it right away:)

I had also promised Matilde to knit one for her, so she could keep warm in the autumn evenings...and as soon as I have weaved in the last thread, rain and milder temperatures have arrived.

new pattern - Allegra's Cover

Our friends' little baby is born:) The most beautiful experience of life, the most incredible journey:) For the occasion I have created this little cover and I have designed the pattern to celebrate such a unique event.

Matilde wanted to test the softness of the cover and she has decided that she wanted one for herself...and I am here knitting another Allegra's Cover.

A wrap from Estonia

A Ravelry friend from Estonia, Kuduja (Ann), designed this beautiful wrap, named Physalis. I used an incredible alpaca I had bought at La Droguerie in Paris and the final result is just very elegant and cozy. It is a quick and mnemonic pattern that is a joy to knit.

Un'amica di Ravelry (Kuduja-Ann) ha creato questo meravigliosa stola, che si chiama Physalis. Ho utilizzato un'alpaca morbidissima che avevo comprato presso La Droguerie a Parigi e il risultato è un coprispalle elegante e confortevole. Il pattern si memorizza facilmente ed è veloce, una vera gioia da lavorare.

Inspiration in Bretagne and Normandie

Travelling through the Bretagne and Normandie regions has been so inspiring and inspirational. I have so many ideas in mind, so many patterns and models. I am ready for my new collections, my job my passion. In the meantime, my hobby follows me everywhere and I have knitted a lot during the long car rides. For now I have these pictures, but soon I will take the other ones...let's start with "Mormor's shawl for myself" with this beautiful Kauni yarn...............
