On/off & under the needles
Tini finished her Levenwick cardigan by Gudrun Johnston out of handspun and has had major problems with the buttonbands… (hence the title of the episode)
Maria is actually knitting and has picked up her Owl Sweater by Kate Davies again.
Tini has also finished her Spectra Shawl by Stephen West.
Soon to be on the needles for Maria is another Baby boy 5-hour sweater for her niece (to be born) by Gail Bable.
Currently a WIP for Tini is the Spiral Rib Cowl by Ann Norling out of the book “Stitch red” and she’s also knitting some plain vanilla socks.
Maria is going to release a pattern for a new knit dress soon and has also worked on a pattern for somebody else to release, so it’s a big secret.
Sewingwise Tini has made quite good progress on her UFO quilt and has cut out a blouse from Ottobre 05/2007 (which Maria wants to make as well) and a jacket using Onion 1032.
There’s been some sewing for the twins. The pattern is Amelie by Farbenmix.
A recap of our sewing weekend
Tini has enjoyed a sewing weekend in Aarhus, unfortunately Maria got ill.
