Hand-knitted Eyelet Sweater

I started this sweater in May last year, it was very slow progress with a lot of errors. I unraveled the sweater three times but in the end, I'm happy with the final result. I posted the journey of making it on my  Instagram  , so I'm not going to show the photos again in the blog. The original plan was to knit a simple eyelet sweater, square bodice and drop shoulder but in the end, I changed my mind and knit a seamless bottom-up sweater with decorative eyelets. For the yarn I used Linie 152, Paloma, in orchid color and pattern was my own. I used 2.5 mm and 3 mm circular needles.

2019 Make Nine Round-Up

Happy New Year everyone. I decided to write a blog post after a long silence, last year wasn't a good year for me for blogging. I was too busy with other things in life, lost my mojo on writing but I managed to sew some garments. Hope this year will be better and my mojo will be back and I can manage a good balance between sewing and blogging. I'd love to focus on sewing basic wears and replacing the old garments that don't fit me. Also, I'd love to knit some tops and sew some undies and active wears. I have too many plans on my head and I think I should write them down and will let you know later. For today, I'm sharing three last garments that I sewed and knitted for 2019 Make Nine challenge that I participated on Instagram.

2018 Make Nine Round Up

Happy New Year 2019 to all fellow sewists and followers. I've been away for a while, busy with a lot of good things but still sewing and knitting. Hope all of you had a lovely time as much as I did. And today, I decided to share my 2018 Make Nine round up. I didn't complete the nine garments that I was planning but glad I finished six garments and one in progress.
