Hi my dears,

how are you? 

I would like to share with you my newest project. A week ago I started my personal challenge. I would like to crochet granny square dress - it will be the Birthday present for myself from me :-)

I never made crochet dress in adult size and I never made a dress for myself also - it will be my premiere. Sooo, today it is a day 7 of my challenge, so I decided to share my progress on my blog also of course :-)

I was thinking about making this dress for years and I also was searching for the right material for years. I thought, that I will use my favorite Catania, but finally, I choose a wonderful material - a mixture of Viscose and Elastane, the Czech production, which recommend me one of our famous designer of knitted and crochet fashion Dana Vrbova. Anyway, she made wonderful models. Take a look on her Insta :-)

After a long time, I took my 2,5 mm hook. 

And this is the progress of my personal challenge - day 7 :-)

Do you have also some crochet challenge? And did you fulfilled it? What motivates you to try something new or something big or hard? :-)  Do you have some schedule? I am not good to keep the challenge, what set for myself, but this one I would really do. This one would be the breakpoint :-) 

Thank you very much for reading, my dears ♥

Hi, my dears,

how are you?

It looks like I was disappeared, don't be worry, I am still here :-)

But for all worries and work, I almost forget to share the beauty. I missed it so much and I missed you so much too, my dears.

It is a year ago when my heart was broken by tragically passing away of my dad. To tell you the truth, I am still not all right. My father always wanted to see me strong and smiling. Well, I don't know if I didn't fail, I guess, that yes. But I am really trying to be a strong girl :-).

Maybe you are wondering what I was doing all this time? Well - I started a second full-time job. You know, I understand, that we are living in the digital age, I love sharing, but among sharing and stealing there is a thin border. All these groups and sites, where are all that digital stuff, like I don't know - like my patterns - shared for free, thousands of the downloads for free, or for someone else profit, and you have no power to stop it...it forced me to quit or almost quit with the work I admire most of all. I was so sad and still, I am. You can't fight these windmills forever, at least I can't. For ten years I am trying to inspire others, to create something fresh and cool, to share the light and I still love it. I still love my colorful world, where I feel safe, I love my loyal friends and followers, and I am still trying to share the inspiration and the light  ♥, but I am really tired from the stealing of my art, patterns and my spirit. It will take some time, to both my jobs will get used to each other, or one totally destroys the other. Well, I will see. 

Anyway, now we have 4 days off because it is an Easter, yeah! Sooooo I took advantage and wrote you some letters. And my Knitcrate came, yes, so you can read some new review if you wish :-)

So my dears, I have some new chicken on my table and I am going to crochet. 

Enjoy your Easter :-)

Thank you for reading ♥

So take a look with me at April's kit.

And the topic and inspiration for this kit iiis:

★ E N T O M O L O G Y ★

OMG, look at the color I get. I love it so much, exactly for my soul and fits my blog too, what do you think? :-)

Anyway, you can take a closer look and see other colors, all are like the April weather - a little bit moody :-)

This color is so gently as same as these Long-tailed Tits in front of my window.

OK, back to the KnitCrate :-)

There are many 4 beautiful patterns inside for crocheters and knitters as well. 

Yes, you read correctly - cashmere - hmmmmm :-)

So smooth and pleasant. And I have to tell it again - THAT COLOR! ♥

Hi, my dears,

do you know what? February KnitCrate didn't come. The KnitCrate company was trying a new delivery service, but I don't know if it was a happy idea. Anyway, they wrote to me, that they switched to the old delivery method and look at what I found today in my post office? :-)

And now you know the inspiration of this month.

  ★ A T I M E  T O  S H I N E  ★

And what of beauty is inside?

400 yards of Knitologie Sheen yarn

My colorway: Titmouse

And it is 45% Merino Woll, 15% Silk 10% Cashmere

So tell me, isn't that beautiful?... ♥

And look what a beautiful little bag I found too. 

I love it! I didn't know it before, but now I know, that I really needed this :-)

And I exactly know, what I will make from this beautiful and warm yarn :-)

And what type is it?

Exclusively made for KnitCrate

Vidalana Ambient Worsted Yarn

100% Peruvian Highland Wool

201 yards in 100 g - and you will find 2 skeins. 

It means 402 yards in a total of this amazing yarn. 

Look at these beautiful designs here! There are patterns for knitting and crocheting - all could choose the most favorite technique, or just learn something new :-)

Do you see how many patterns you can find here?

Personally, I am looking forward to trying this cute pattern. It looks soooo cool :-) 

My summary:

Well, I am sorry, that my KnitCrate came so late, that I can't write a review for you sooner. But on the other side - did you know, that you can buy the older KnitCrates until they are not sold out and solid yarn and patterns anytime on Knitcrate website? :-)

Anyway - as I said at the beginning of my review - this kit worth for all this waiting. Thank you, KnitCrate :-)

I am writing a review about this kits regularly so you can take a look on a new one and if you like to try one of their subscriptions and if you will use this code: MAGIC20 and you will get 20% Off the first month of your subscription.
