I'm completely ok!

 Hi !

My favorite is my standard model - knitting in the round! You do everything in one piece and there is no cutting of the wool, just joining. I hate cutting wool. Each cut means the possibility of joining and is made of knots, and that drives me crazy. I don't like the knots on the inside of the sweater. Of course. I know all possible ways to join threads but ... it's still cutting, right? 

So circular knitting is a real pleasure for me. Is it obsessive compulsive disorder, but besides some other things I don't like, otherwise I'm completely ok!  😄😁😀




As usual you can find me on Etsy in my shop FedRaDD .

Surprise!

 I finally decided to try out the metallic thread that I got a few months ago but had no inspiration. So the thread waited and waited until today when I suddenly had a burst of inspiration and crocheted a rose-shaped ring. The thread is great and not difficult to crochet. I used a 1.25 crochet hook, which is very thin for me. I hope the inspiration will last.

Should I knit the sleeves?

 What do you think - Should I add sleeves? The dark blue and burgundy silk thread is beautiful but very difficult to knit and crochet. The burgundy thread has very small sequins and is difficult to pull through the loop. If you miss a loop, you have a problem! As you can see I made a fluffy top, I even added a necklace with flowers but I'm still thinking about the sleeves. It would be easy to add them. My ideas are like a tsunami, you never know what will come to my mind.

Irreplaceable wrap !

 Of all the ways of fastening knitwear, my favorite is the wrap!

It is so simple, effective and practical. You can use a button, a ribbon or maybe a brooch, everything is great and serves the purpose in a simple way. I used a large button on this splashed black and white sweater that I got from a wonderful lady in Slovenia. Such large buttons are hard to find and I am happy that I got them from a person who dedicated himself to making them. This is the link https://www.facebook.com/dolejsi.si

Kaja yarn is also Slovenian from Majšperk and is wonderful to work with because the knitting goes very quickly. This is an asymmetric sweater model, unlike similar ones I've made before. It is interesting how the symmetry is reflected not only on the bottom but also on the appearance of the large collar, which I normally adore.

Pleasant beige

 I live on the Adriatic coast, where winters don't last long and we welcome spring joyfully already in February. The trees have already budded and if the sun shines, we will have bunches already in the middle of next month.

 Anyway, I knitted the last winter sweater in a nice cream color with a cheerful mix of stitches. 

This winter, white or cream white was a must have. After several years of the dictates of black, it was a real refreshment. I hope that the






pleasant beige will remain next winter.

Brain sweater

Winter should be fought with pastel warm colors. So I set out to make a top with an interestingly designed front that irresistibly reminds me of a brain. It may not be romantic, but the association is great, isn't it? Now I'm thinking about a skirt that would go great with this piece and I've already started it! You can find the top on my Etsy shop as well as all other items.

Unfortunately, autumn

 Another hot summer is over, autumn begins and brings its colors. Yesterday I said goodbye to the sea with a pleasant last sunbathing. I'm a summer girl and it's hard for me to switch to rainy gray days and gloomy black clouds. But there is no stopping, let's move on!




These are two black sweaters, one is from before and the other is new. Black is always elegant, especially in combination with white, a t-shirt or shirt underneath. Both sweaters are unique and you can find them in my Etsy shop.

Blue as the sea in spring

 Blue as the sea in spring

Light blue like a morning at the sea in the spring when the delicate scents of flowers dance their dance along the seashore, I walk and wonder how, for who knows how many times, they come to my awakening again and again as if I'm seeing it for the first time. It's a wonderful and healing feeling that takes all the weight of winter off me.

I got a beautiful Angora Gold wool in light blue with a little lilac. It is ideal for a spring thin sweater without sleeves but with a large collar that falls over the arms. It is completely knitted without breaking the wool. I don't like it when I have to cut the thread, I always avoid it in every possible way. A large flower is crocheted and joined with a zihernidle at the back. It can be placed anywhere. An ideal piece for spring. Let's enjoy!

Something new, something old!

  Something new, something old!

I have already made this model, but now I made it in other colors! The model has been extremely well received because it is very interesting. Several black variants have already gone out into the world, I hope you like this one too. 

This one is especially interesting now before spring in the eternal super combination with your jeans and maybe with a white shirt underneath!

You can see it in my Etsy shop.

Pale pink sweater







 I got this beautiful pastel pink slightly thicker wool and I was looking forward to a new project. I usually make this design as a custom order and mostly in gray, but now I decided to make it in this new pale pink. When I realized that I wouldn't have enough wool, I went crazy, but I was saved by the rest of the gray, which I wisely saved, so that the whole sweater got an even more interesting look. Anyway, I have to get another 600 grams (not 500g) of pastel pink.

here is the result and the link-
