My first blouse


Mi primera blusa! Se trata de la blusa 3C de un número de Burda easy que compré hace años y que ha ido resistiendo mudanzas. Es hasta ahora el proyecto de costura para el cual me he tenido que concentrar más pero también he aprendido un montón. La blusa no es perfecta pero estoy muy contenta del resultado.
La tela es de unas sábanas de ikea. Las compré de entrada pensando en hacer una falda o un vestido, el estampado me recuerda a los trajes regionales suizos o alemanes. Es un algodón un poco rígido pero creo que no ha quedado mal, me queda un montón así que aún tengo para hacer algún otro proyecto.

My first blouse! it is the blouse 3C from an old Burda magazine I bought years ago and which made it through several house movings. It is the project which has taken the most my concentration until now but I have also learned many things by doing it. It is not perfect but I am quite happy with the result.
The fabric is a duvet from ikea. I bought it having in mind to make a skirt or a dress out of it, I like the print which remembers the german or swiss regional costumes. It is a quite rigid cotton but I think it didn't come out bad, I have a lot of fabric left so I still will be able to make some more projects.

Modern Cross Stitch Bib




Last time I visited my hometown I bought this bib to cross stitch in a street market. I wanted to embroider something personalised for my baby but with a modern touch. I did this stick letters with "little mouse" with a gradient thread and looked for a cross stitch mouse on pinterest.

La última vez que fui a mi ciudad compré en un mercadito este babero para bordar a punto de cruz, quería bordarle algo personalizado a mi bebé pero con un toque moderno. Hice unas letras de palo con "ratoncito" en un hilo degradado y busqué un ratón de punto de cruz en pinterest.

Baby leggings _ free pattern to download




It has been a while since I made these leggings for my baby and she still wears them a lot so I thought I share the pattern I made with you. The size is meant to be 6-12 months. The fabric being very elastic allows them to fit a long time. I used this colorful owl jersey and made a matching scarf/bib!
You can download the free pattern here.

Ya hace unos meses que le hice estos leggings a mi bebé y sigue usándolos mucho así que he decidido compartir el patrón que hice. La talla corresponde a 6-12 meses, al ser un tejido elástico dan bastante de sí. Yo usé un jersey de búhos coloridos y le hice un pañuelo/babero a conjunto para la garganta!

DIY Crochet Trolley Mobile



Make a cord with a spool knitting.

For each ball:
make a Magical Circle (I used a 3,5 mm Hook) 
Row 1: knit 6 St and close with a slip stitch
Row 2: chain stitch, increase 1 at each St, close with a slip stitch = 12 St
Row 3: chain stitch, *Knit 1, Increase 1*, close with a slip stitch = 18 St
Row 4: chain stitch, *Knit 2, Increase 1*, close with a slip stitch = 24 St
Row 5: chain stitch, *Knit 3, Increase 1*, close with a slip stitch = 30 St
Row 6: chain stitch, *Knit all the row*, close with a slip stitch = 30 St
Row 7: chain stitch, *Knit all the row*, close with a slip stitch = 30 St
Row 8: chain stitch, *Knit all the row*, close with a slip stitch = 30 St
Row 9: chain stitch, *Knit 3, Knit 2 together*, close with a slip stitch = 24 St
Row 10: chain stitch, *Knit 2, Knit 2 together*, close with a slip stitch = 18 St
Row 11: chain stitch, *Knit 1, Knit 2 together*, close with a slip stitch = 12 St
At this point you should start to fill the ball 
Row 12: chain stitch, *Knit 2 together*, close with a slip stitch = 6 St
Draw through the remaining stitches and pull tight.

Attach the thread to the cord.
You're done!
