Another Marimekko Unniko Easter Card

I already mentioned in an earlier post that I'm sending a friend of mine a Marimekko styled card every year for Easter (see this post). This is the Marimekko Unniko Easter Card Kristin got last year, a pretty simple one. The flower is made of  felt.

I'm currently going through some ideas for this year's Easter Card :)

Crocheted Bag

I always wanted to make one of those granny square bags but never got started. A couple of months ago I came across this amazing Sunny Spread pattern and I thought this is it! This is what I'm going to use for my bag! Well, the bag turned out like this:

I later made another one for my mother using blue wool. Unfortunately I, forgot to take pictures of it...

Wool:
- Schachenmayr Bravo 8226 (black)
- Schachenmayr Bravo Colour 00083 (mexiko)

Pattern: Sunny Spread

She is so in love with the pattern and couldn't stop telling me how amazing it is! Well, maybe I should make her a little something using this pattern....mh.... :)

Round 11 - Schachenmayr Bravo 8284 (mint)
Round 12 - Schachenmayr Bravo 8289 (fuchsia)

Wool-Eater CAL Update 01: Preparation

I will try to post updates on my wool-eater blanket on a weekly basis (like Sarah suggested in her blog). I kicked off the wool-eater project a couple of hours ago by having a look through my stash...

...and picked some colours for the first few rows.
