Designs, Yarns and Etsy !

Hello my dear friends , 
it's been a busy year again and all I can say ....time flies !!!
Last Year I started spinning and this month I published my first two knitting designs on Ravelry . As you know I love knitting . It helped me through difficult times , it makes me stay calm and it takes away all worries from me . After a busy stressful day at work there is just one thought on my mind ... take a shower and grap your knitting bag . Perfection with a nice cup of tea !!!
My first design is called "Fairy Breeze" ! A one piece cotton tank top with cabled straps . It's airy and knitted in an A-Line . Perfect for any body type . You can knit it shorter or longer , in two , three or uni colours. Let your imagination get wild :)


The Pattern is easy to follow even for those not being familiar with cable . A good opportunity to get started and discover this stitch.
Find this pattern on Ravelry under Julias Blog designs. 
My second design is the “Fall..ish” sweater. Lightweight and roomy, perfect for the first autumn chills. This cozy sweater features two front pockets, ripped neck and hem band and a button closure which can be worn open or closed. The fitted upper body and the flared hemline makes it the perfect sweater for any body type. 
Cabled side bands on back. 
No buttonholes needed as we use the cable holes instead. 
Worked in one piece top to down.

Both sweaters are knitted with my hand dyed yarns . They will be soon available on the Etsy shop my daughter and I created . It is called "StitchesAndLoopsShop" . 
Here is a sneak peek of my yarns ...
There you can find handmade creations made with loads of passion and love . Mad is sewing beautiful clothes. Here you can see me wearing her Barcelona Top . Isn't it a dream ?

Have a beautiful day
