Pyjamas

This my new pyjamas, thank you so much Kirsty for the material! 70's flower polyester fabric has been used for this cosy PJ :) Top with gathering at the back (lace) made of new stretchy t-shirt fabric from fabric land.

My first knitted jumper (12 stitch plaits)

I knitted this! My first jumper ever and I made my own pattern. My friend gave me some 1970 yarn (made in England) 100 % acrylic - but who cares - its perfect and its got a lovely colour. Knitted it with needle size 6.5 so it did not take long to make it. Front is made out of three 12 stitch plaits and back is worked 2 rows knit, 2 rows purl. Arms got a 12 stitch plait running along the side. I am very impressed by myself as I have never knitted a jumper before - not even after a knitting pattern!










Upholstered rocking chair

I was asked by my friends to upholster the cushions for their fantastic rocking chair. Both cushions are fitted with a zip which makes it possible to be washed in the washing machine. I'm very happy with the result and so are my friends!
