If you ever wondered what to gift someone who’s obsessed with knitting or crochet (besides yarn… always yarn 😂🧶), here are a few of my absolute favourites.
Things I use, love, or secretly hope someone gifts me one day 🙊✨

📘 The Knitwear Manual. My nerdy pleasure… it teaches you everything about yarn, stitches and design.
🎡 Ball Winders & Yarn Swifts. Honestly, life-changing. No more tangled nightmares.
🫧 Soak Detergent. The only thing I trust to keep my handmade pieces soft and beautiful.

And a few more cute ideas inside the carousel 🫶
If you want any of the links, just comment “send me the link” and I’ll send it to you!

Two weeks, countless stitches, and more than 800 cm of woolly fringe later… The Winter Jacket is finally alive ❄️🧶✨

Testing this beautiful pattern from @lola.yr.knits has been for me a reminder that crochet can be as bold and stylish as you want it to be. And that sometimes you just have to do it! Might look complicated but it’s totally beginner-intermediate friendly.

Made with 100% wool and 100% rush. Love the result ❤️

This December started with a crochet challenge, create this jacket in a record time. And I am so glad I did it! 🐑🧶 This design is not mine, but from @lola.yr.knits ❤️ Thank you for letting me be part of your testing process for this amazing pattern. You can find this one and more on her website; and of course, give it your twist.

One of my favorite series to have on while I crochet or knit ❤️ A true classic; the kind of show where the friendship between women stays timeless across years and generations. Because at some point, we’ve all been a little Samantha, Carrie, Miranda, or Charlotte. And every time I watch it, I miss my friends… but I also feel an even deeper pride in being a woman.

What’s your best serie to watch while crafting? 👀

Clearly my fav Christmas gift idea: the sailor slippers❤️
They turned more cozy than expected and I love them so much!

I recently knitted the viral sailor slippers from @anniesews_ and I am obsessed ❤️🥰 It’s the perfect pattern and totally beginner friendly

Crochet nights at @oko.zurich look like this 👀❤️
