Flower fields and a blue sky

Made some dresses to my niece. Bought a book 'Mekkotehdas' (translates to 'Dress factory') a while ago and had to make some dresses immediately. Material is cotton and size 122/128 (EU) which unfortunately is the biggest size in the book (except that one adult sized dress). Also made a shoulder bag from the left-overs. And got a message yesterday that she absolutely LOVEs the shoulder bag.

Something I made for myself. Fabric from Kui design, bought from Turku Design Shop.

Pullover

Image
I knit a pullover / tunic of the same yarn I used in my beanie Aberforth. I started it as a sweater but since the instructions in the magazine ( Moda 6/2012) weren't to my taste after all, I changed it to more my liking. I think I still might change those buttons since their not my style. That's why I originally took them off of the sweater I bought a few years back. Sleeves are 3/4 in length. I like the length but when the coldest weather arrives here I'll probably miss them being full length.. Oh well.

Made a beanie to myself using Svarta Fårets Ullgarn 2-thread wool yarn. The yarn was a leftover from another project that I'll share with you later. Instructions for the beanie can be found  here . (Underneath the picture is a dropdown menu where you can change the language.)

Made these curtains a while ago. Simple straight curtain, 100 % cotton fabric, from Ikea.

You might think of the title that this text got into a wrong place. But it didn't. Here's a t-shirt as it was before. And here's a picture of what it became.

Left-overs to covers

Used some left-over yarns to cover the ugly flower vase. Now our cat won't be drinking from the plate.
