I finished my blue silk cardigan without embroidery, the drawstringbag and the pink scarf is blocket. Nothing is impossible. When I cleaned the mirror I will show pictures!
I´m worth one more drink of glögg!!!

UFO or VIP
There´s a thin red line between UFO and VIP but I think this is a VIP. The yarn is a fleamarket find in cotton, one mustard and one off white thread. I´m planning on making a simple sweater and embellish it with patchwork shapes in felt attached with buttonhole stitches like this one from Free people
( I think ) Like those mittens too!

Lots of weaving in ends here. Knitted in Bourette silk in a lovely coffe brown shade that does not show on the photo. Been waiting for sewing loooong time. need to buy tread, tha yarn is way to weak to use, probably will I need to make it longer, have some yarns left. The sweater is based on a pattern in VK but since the photo is soooo bad it can´t be seen.

Blue silk cardigan needs trimmings and the snaps on the proper place. Put one not there yesterday so I have to find some tools today ( ? ) to remove it. Will probably add machine embroidery or sew on something. The burgundy velvet trim, but not as wide is going at the arm endings as well on the Onion goes Chanel jacket.

New Year Skirt

X-mas skirt
I wanted a red skirt for christmas and liked this pattern since I saw Jette ( the designer ) wearing it more than two years ago. I cut it in a burgundy red linen fabric about a mounth ago and pinned it to a curtain to stretch.
The skirt is in one piece, it´s on straight edge in the middle back and bias at front, and it´s fits beatiful over the hips. I need help with the hem, gonna ask a friend tomorrow. It´s really fast sewing, front hems, waistband and hem. I´m gonna add something to the ties to embellish it and leave the skirt plain. It will look good with the Onion-Chanel jacket when it gets ready.
