Shiny happy barbie

Check out what our friend Anne-Marie did with the yarn leftovers after knitting her own MAHAL PONCHO!
Yes, she did the maths and adapted the pattern to a doll size. Then she realized how cool it would look on a Barbie and she managed to find one dressed in matching Magic Mint! Pretty inspiring.

Really well done!

Summer memories part.02

This is the story of two kids under the sun of ibiza, a ball of cotton in their hands. Knitting made them come together, creating a link between them, the time, the place and the object produced. It acts as a record of what was going on this very summer, the air that they breathed, the love that they felt. They knit to share.
