When I went to buy the wool to my supplier last month, I found a mixed yarn {cotton+acrylic} with a perfect shade of mint. I bought it and when I came home I started looking for a good pattern to make a summer shawl. Yesterday evening I finished it and I’m very lucky, because in these days looks like summer… View Post

My kitchen is for sure happier!Have a lovely… View Post
