Needlemania

Lately I have gotten a lot of knitting-related things as presents - trend continues. Husby's birthday present to me was free choice of knitting needles. So I did some research and figured out these are amongst the best ones. Interchangeable ones for pullovers and short (15cm) double pointed needles to feed my sockaholism :D

Sylvi hoodie

The three-week pause in blogging was caused by this pretty Sylvi hoodie. Originally I got the yarn for a Sylvi jacket but I realised quite quickly that 14 skeins of Isoveli will not be enough for that. So I did some agile designing and planning for a hoodie :D Basically I had to calculate everything again, mainly because my gauge was not the same as that of the instructions.








Yarn: Novita Isoveli 1220g
Needles: 5
