Exciting News!

You may have noticed the lack of new knits here lately. There are several reasons for it (other projects, translated books, etc), but the biggest reason of all is that there are tons of new patterns coming out soon. There will also be translated patterns (Liuhu and One Skein Bolero will be next).

The one that has taken up a big chunk of my time lately is an exciting new project called Playground Knits!

The idea came from Tiina in Titityy, the yarns were provided by BC Garn and the patterns were designed by my talented colleagues: Veera, Tiina, Mari and Suvi! I have two designs in the eBook which will be published soon in both English and Finnish.

I was thrilled to be part of this project: it was the first time I designed knitwear for kids and I certainly learned a lot. I also discovered how hard photography is (nearly made me hate the sun), especially with kids, and also how much fun it is working with other designers. We all have our own style and way of doing things, and I felt I learned a lot by cooperating and writing with others. I wish to thank Tiina for asking me to be part of this project, and all of the other designers for being part of an eBook which, I believe, will be an answer to the most dire need of kids' knits. Details will soon follow!

ritvis, eKirjaa saa tässä kuussa, ravelrystä ja Titityyn sivuilta. Pistän blogiin infoa kun eKirja on ulkona :)

Kiva juttu. Nyt pitää enää päättää ottaako sen eKirjan englanniksi vai suomeksi ja ostaako vielä kirjankin lokakuussa :)

routa: noista kahdesta mun mallista voipi myöhemmin tulla myös aikuisten malleja, sillä lailla muokattuja että näyttävät oikeasti aikuisten malleilta kanssa. Että tulossa on, jahka saadaan tehtyä. Nyt ensin lomaillaan ihan vähän :)
