Scarf for HIM :)

Last two weeks I was busy knitting this scarf (that is I was laso busy working on my shop and studying)
As for the scarf - I wanted it to be soft, lovely, warm, long and.. and... and... everything a scarf should be.
I came up with the pattern by myself, but obviously, there is nothing new under the sun - I based it on many many other patterns.
Last year I tried a similar pattern on a scarf for a friend, but this one turned out to be more successful - easier to knit and looks prettier.

Here is the picture in the process:



I will upload the pictures of the finished scarf later. Also, I am trying to draw my patterns so that other people can use it (if I upload it to my blog for example), but so far I only used good old pen and paper. Are there any programs to draw knitting and crocheting patterns, I wonder...

Here is the finished scarf :)

Buttons are still on my mind :)

Well, well, I am preparing for Basar Under, where I will have a table for three consecutive Saturdays (December the 4th, 11th and 18th). apparently, my brooches attract more attention to my table than my necklaces :) So be it - it is a mass-brooch-production-factory in my apartment now :) Crocheting, combining, inventing new patterns, sewing buttons, taking pictures...
all this made me realize how urgently I need a proper studio, or at least a corner in a room for my shop :)

Here are two of my new creations - embellished with upcycled buttons. For more info - click on the picture and go to my shop

I wear glasses

since last weak - I wear glasses. That's how I look on a rainy autumn day in Stockholm park.
Don't ask me, why I don't smile - I usually do!
And this day was such a happy day - long walk under umbrella along the Djurgården shore, then brunch at Djurgårdsbrunn. Later - walk in the Old Town and peeking into old book shops - ahhh.

I truly live in the most beautiful and amazing city!!

Buttons collection

More buttons!!

I am in love with these little colorful buttons. I bought a bunch in a secondhand shop and now is utilizing them into a new buttons collection!

Do you like upcycled things as much as I do?






I will list more items (versatile necklaces and earrings) in my "Passion for Buttons" section of my shop on Etsy

Dreamy Blueberries

I came up with this item in a nostalgic search for late summer. Juicy blueberries, green meadows and sunny smiles :)
I used this turquoise shade for blueberries to make them a bit dreamy, a bit creamy, as if preparing them for their future fate - blueberry cheesecake.. or icecream :))
