I have caught the kntting bug again!
A cowl with interesting stitches for myself.
A new hat for Emil.
This will become a sleeveless v-neck sweater for Frederik. Pattern found via Angry Chicken.
The yarn for a short jacket for Damaris still has to be bought. She needs to come with me to pick the color and to test the yarn for non-itchy-ness!
More creative spaces at Kootoyoo! Thanks for hosting this every week Kirsty!
Well, I didn't have any plaid, but I did have gingham checks. I decided to make plaid from the gingham using colorful ribbons. I used my selfmade fabric for the pocket of a linen cafe-type apron.
See, I did have a plaid shirt!
Remember the Appeltaart Apron I made for the previous challenge? Here it is.
Today in my creative space I have two items of clothing that need alterations.
The shirt needs a few stitches so it is a bit more 'decent'. That way I will be able to wear it without a top underneath. The skirt needs to be a bit shorter (a bit less decent, haha). I don't want to cut off the bottom though, because it is the nicest part of the skirt. I'm going to try to take out part of the lightest colored tier. Wish me luck!

A couple of months ago, Amy Karol (Angry Chicken) announced the Pie-Making Apron challenge on her apron blog Tie one on. I really liked that theme and thought it was the perfect inspiration!
I made an Appeltaart (Apple Pie) Apron for Damaris. She is a star at making these pies. And I set out to make an apron for her that was cool, girly but not pink, slightly apple-themed, and fun to make.
Here is a link to our photo in the Tie one on gallery (it features Damaris' Appeltaart recipe!!) and here you can see the whole gallery of Pie-Making Aprons.
Here is the next challenge... I wonder what I'll come up with?!
