Open Back Satin Blouse Decorated with Moonstones and Mountain Crystal Stones










This time I decided to make a small break from knitting and to make one fancy evening blouse. On the pictures above you can see the process of making it. It was not that difficult to make the blouse but it was really hard work to adjust the stones. The blouse was getting heavier and heavier and my fingers got really painful from the needle. But at the end I am nicely surprised about the final result which exceeded my expectations - it stays very elegant and sexy on the body. In a few days, I am going to post pictures of the ready blouse.

Mohair Superkid and Silk


Few weeks ago, I received an amazing present from a client of mine - a huge bag with yarn :). She used to knit too but now not anymore, so she thought I will know what to do with it. It includes three different kinds of wool and all of them are in wonderful colors:
1) Mohair with silk
                                      2) Baby kid mohair with virgin wool and silk
                             3) Alpaca with virgin wool and acrylic

So I will start immediately working on one new pullover and very soon you can see the result!

Self-Made Buttons For an Elegant Sweater for the Spring




While travelling during the Christmas holiday, I almost managed to finish my newest project. It is a sweater that is going to be a present for my sister. It took me only one week but I still need some time to sew it together. Also the buttons are made by me - as you can see they are from cork. I will publish the pictures of the ready sweater in the coming days.
