Christmas presents to warm my loved ones

As it is getting colder and colder, I am in a knitting mood again.

And as funds are low this year, I'm making some of this year's Christmas presents myself. I must say it's quite satisfying. 

For my sis I made this lovely scarf in ultra soft wool

Here is where I found this lovely free pattern: http://auntekristy.blogspot.be/2013/08/free-pattern-gallatin-scarf.html

My daughter wanted one of these chunky scarves that you loop around twice.

I cast on 96 stitches and knitted on a circular needle (size 10) in an Arrow-head lace pattern. ±300gr of acrylic wool, 3 hrs and voila!

The next winter project is finished too!
Great big cowl, 200gr of acrylic wool, knitted with size 10 needles and cables this time.

Getting my blog started

As I roam the web looking for ideas, I keep reading the most interesting things on other people's blogs, 
So it should not be to much of a surprise that I'm going to start my own blog.

It's going to be a lifestyle blog with focus on Home Improvement, DIY, Art, Cooking and much much more.
My friends keep telling me that I'm sooooo handy and creative, so here goes, I'm going to start sharing projects I'm working on.

Keep me informed if you want to see particular content or if I can help you with tips about projects you are working on.

Love Marjan
