Sarà... granny chic? // Could this be... granny chic?

Ciao a tutte! Avete passato un bel ponte del 1° maggio? Io sono stata indaffaratissima, come al solito ultimamente, ma molto soddisfatta! : ) Spero che la vostra settimana sia iniziata bene, la mia devo dire di sì: ieri sera ho finalmente finito il mio primo copricuscino! Mi sono divertita tanto a lavorare queste due grosse mattonelle e poi a unirle insieme con un bordino classico a ventagli, sempre d'effetto, trovo... ora mi domandavo, come definire lo stile di questo lavoro? Granny è granny, e su questo non ci sono dubbi, ma questo colore è chic? Secondo me sì, perciò almeno per me sarà granny chic! : )
Che ne dite, vi piace?

Hello everybody! Have you had a nice 1st of May and weekend? I've been very busy, as usual as of late, but I'm really satisfied! : ) I hope your week started off well, mine did: yesterday evening I finally finished my first cushion cover! I've had lots of fun crocheting these two big squares and then putting them together with a classic shell edge, an evergreen... now I was wondering, how would you call this item's style? It's granny, for sure, but is this colour chic? I believe it is, so for me at least it's gonna be called granny chic! : )
What do you think about it, you likey?

Finished! / Finito!

Hello ladies! How was your weekend? Hope it all goes well! I'm here to show my finally finished baby cardigan, remember ? I've already told you about the wool I used in my latest post, so I won't bore you any longer - just a quick note: if you happen to find it and you've got some knitting baby project in mind definitely try it out! It's thin but grows quickly, it's incredibly soft and it took me less than 100 g on 3.5 mm needles to finish this cardigan, which should fit a 6 months old. Ciao a tutte! Com'è andato il fine settimana? Spero tutto bene! Sono qui per mostrarvi il golfino di cui vi avevo parlato, vi ricordate ? Vi ho già parlato nello scorso post della lana che ho usato, quindi non vi annoierò oltre - solo un appunto veloce: se vi capita di trovarla e avete in mente di sferruzzare qualcosa per un bimbo provatela! E' sottile ma cresce in fretta, è incredibilmente morbida, e mi sono bastati meno di 100 g (su ferri da 3.5 mm) per que

I'll write on my  WordPress blog only, from now on, so if you want to follow me you'll find me there. I won't delete this blog, as I'm attached to it and it reminds me of the road I travelled so far, but at least for now I won't update it anymore.

And here's the Dragon! / Ecco il Drago!

Remember the Dragon Tail scarf/shawl I began some time ago? Well, last week I managed to finish it, and I'm oh so proud of it. Not only it's my first Tunisian crochet project, but it also turned out great, big and cosy and oh so soft (this thanks to the lovely yarn Géraldine sent me, Phil Bambou Laine by Phildar). It is 2 m long from tip to tip and 45 cm wide by the last scale, and the last row counts 110 stitches, which are quite a lot... : ) As I already wrote I strongly recommend this if you want to try Tunisian crochet, it's easy, good fun and you get a nice original item to wear. You might find this tutorial by Julia Marquardt helpful, but if you want to get one that's exactly like mine you have to change the pattern a little bit: I followed the instructions by a great designer, MariaGrazia Berno , who modified it a bit in order to obtain a scarf/shawl that curls up more. Her pattern says to increase of two stitches at the end of every row, just before the se
