What a bad weather we have here in the Netherlands. Specially for the time of the year. But it gives me the opportunity to use my Volcano Cowl. I finished it a couple of weeks ago with the idea that I can use it next year. Not😉. Enjoy your evening.

    Vrolijk pasen🐣! Ik ben door de groep van @kikke Vrolijk pasen🐣! Ik ben door de groep van @kikkerleeuw weer helemaal into de mooie Picapau dieren. Net begonnen aan een nieuwe, maar dat kan ik nog niet laten zien, dus dan even een oudje. Het patroon staat in een van de  Koel magazines. Het was voor mij de eerste keer dat ik een patroon van @picapauyan ging maken en ik was meteen verkocht.

Happy Easter everyone🐣. Because of the group from @kikkerleeuw I’m really enthousiastic about the animals of Pica Pau again. I can’t show you something new yet. Instead of that this oldie which is very suitable for today🐣. The pattern was in one of the Koel magazines and it was the firt time I saw a pattern of Pica Pau.

My Volcano trail cowl is almost finished. Lovely project to work on😃. And if I finish it this weekend, I think I can even start using it. The weather prediction for the next days is not so good😬.

    Toch stiekem aan dit nieuwe projectje begonnen 😬. Dan kan ik hem misschien nog een beetje gebruiken als het ‘s ochtends nog koud is. Gelukkig is de lapjesdeken bijna af, daar ben ik ook nog mee bezig. Nog een paar (lange) toertjes

🇬🇧🇺🇸
I couldn’t resist starting this little project although my granny square blanket still needs some finishing rows😬. But the warmer weather is coming, so if I finish this cowl fast then maybe I will be able to use it a few times 😉. But still working on the other project too😃.
