Moo minicards

A few days ago I've got a pack from UK. My Moo MiniCards has been arrived! :) I was really happy, because I didn't want to pay for the priority mail, and the estimated delivery date was 27th June - and I'm going to move back to Berlin on 25th.

The cards have been arrived in a pretty paper box.


Pretty packaging, recycled paper (the box is recycled pulp).


...and what is in the box? :)


There are some cards from the collection. I've ordered 100 pieces with 60 different graphic. High quality, nice cards, I'm totally satisfied with them. :)

A new project

When I started selling regularly in the Mauerpark, I've realized, I have a lot of jewelry displays at home. But of course, none of them fitted to the desk which I've been using on the sunday market. In each market you have different sized desks... So firstly, I've started to design a variable display set to the markets. But it's another story about which I will write later. ;)

I think, the jewelry organizing is an eternal problem in the life of the women who love to wear jewelry. I've collected some practical solutions on my Pinterest site. But I wasn't totally satisfied with these ideas. So, I had to design my own version. :)
Because I've worked with wood for a little more than 1 year, it was obvious to use wood for my jewelry display project. I love to work with wood, because it's eco friendly material, and I think it's a very important point  of view nowadays.

Actually the first versions were finished in last December (I had some problems with the photo shooting.)
So... Let me introduce my first, eco friendly jewelry stand:



I love the cloud motif (maybe you remember, I've used in the last year a cloud in my logo too), and I think, the result is a kind, but minimalist and modern earrings stand.
You can find some information and pictures on the Etsy page!
And I'll show you the rests soon! :)

Abalone cardigan - the first knitted cloth

A few months ago I bought a beautiful, hand dyed yarn from Bucilla. If you want to get a Buci yarn, you have to be very fast. :) She uploads her new works to her blog, and if you in the right place at the right time, maybe you can get those.



So, I had a hand dyed Buci yarn, 100g, 700m. It's just enough to make my first cardigan. :) I've knitted just wraps, cowls, mittens and hats. Originally I didn't want to make clothes, because I need a lot of ball of yarns,  and I think, to knit for example a jumper is a little boring. :P If I still make clothes, they will have to be really special, which I can't buy in a shop.


The colours make my cardigan special. The yarn was very thin, I knitted with 3.5 needle, so finally I've got light, colorful, really springlike clothes. I would have never used the green color with purple and rose, but fortunately Buci have used. ;) The color of the cardigan recalls the colors of tourmaline gemstone. The tourmaline is one of my favourite stones, and the knitting was refreshing in the grey, cold and boring February.

My favorite knitting project in 2012


When I only knew crocheting, I found a beautiful hat on Ravelry. This is a knitted project, but I bought it immediately. :) Finally 1 year later I could start to make this hat. I loved to knit, because it's very easy and fast! And the two pompons are really funny and cheerful.

Pattern: Toorie
Yarn: Barka Díva (50% Merino, 50% Alpaca)
Needle: 3.0 mm
