And every time, I would play this magical track by Talk Talk, After the Flood.
I had fun making little presents, and more stationeries. I wove the little pouch, I love weaving but I rarely find enough time. I found the courage to give my knitting machine another try. It was a very steep learning curve but after three weeks of battling, I’m finally enjoying it. There is no way I’m going to follow a pattern, I tried several and they drive me up the wall. I tried to design my own , based on the gauge, it didn’t work out, so I’m cutting into the knitting fabric and blocking the edges with an elastic stitch on my sewing machine. I have no shame!
I made a snood and I’m working on a sleeveless sweater. It does take quite a while since I’m using the Intarsia technique, to incorporate simple patterns of different colours.

looks like the most perfect day Dear Kundry. of course i was agog at all the green! Loved watching you putting the finishing touches to the beautiful stormy sea painting – the whale is beautiful. the knitting machine looks hard going but i am sure you will manage it and i can’t imagine you ever needing something so structured as a pattern – what you come up with will be so much better. love to you Dear Kundry, Jo xxx
Thank you, dear Jo! Exactly! I want my sweaters to be like … an Odyssey! These are Goblin sweaters!Perhaps, I will incorporate embroidery, sequins and feathers. I am very inspired. Love to you too, dear Jo.
Bonjour Kundry,
Sympa ce snood! Cette année je travaille à “La Maison des Métiers d’Arts de Locronan” et j’ai eu un couple de visiteurs cet été et la femme te ressemblait beaucoup! Je n’ai pas osé lui demander si elle était cette créatrice incroyable qui me surprend toujours!
La boutique appartient à la tisserande ( mohair ou alpaga) mais elle permet à d’autres créatrices des environs d’exposer leur travail!
Bonne soirée à toi et ta famille!
Bises,
Isabelle
