Day 37/365 ✨
Friday means weekly recap.

I mostly do these for myself — because it feels good, at the end of the week, to see that things are moving, even when it sometimes feels like I didn’t do that much.

This week I finished the linen top (still without a name 🤍),
started a new project using the stitch pattern from My Precious Sweater — a design that means a lot to me,
listed another earrings design in the @bkartwear Etsy shop,
and finally published Part 3 of the Aria Cardigan tutorial — which means the full video is now complete.

Ending the week right here, in the car, waiting for my daughter to finish her dance lesson.
Looking forward to the next one 🤍

Thank you for following along.

Day 24/365 ✨
Today started with undoing everything and beginning again.
Same project, fresh start.

Later, I dropped my daughter off at her drawing lesson. She practiced drawing lips and eyes, and honestly, I think she did a great job. Watching her explore and learn so freely reminded me that starting over is part of the process — in art, in making, in everything.

A quiet day of beginnings, in different forms 🤍

Day 19/365 ✨
I spent almost the entire day working on the Aria Cardigan pattern.

Pattern writing is not my favorite part — I’m always questioning if everything is clear enough, if I should add more, explain less, change this or that. But the feeling after finishing, when everything is finally packed together, is so rewarding.

Today I was wearing a mohair version of the Pride Summer Sweater I made last year. Same pattern, bigger hook, more oversized fit.
A long day, but a good one 🤍

Day 10/365 ✨
A gentle day.
Wearing my Soft Season Cardigan, dropping my daughter off at art class, and now back home with her beautiful painted card.
A quiet evening ahead — a movie, a bit of crochet, and slow time together 🤍
What does your perfect cozy evening look like?

Day 5/365 ❄️
Snow like we haven’t seen in years.
So we slowed down, walked, laughed, built a snowman, and made memories.
Not sure how long the snow will stay — but today will 🤍

This sweater has many stories.
Loved by many, challenging for some — and that’s okay.

What hurts is that because of its popularity, it has been stolen many times. Today I found it featured in a book on Amazon, using my design and my photo, without permission.

I shared the link in my Stories if you wish to report it.
Thank you so much to @gluglug and to this amazing community for always showing up 🤍

I just uploaded again the video tutorial for the Cozy Delight Sweater because I don’t know how and why it was removed from the Channel.

The Aria Sweater Tutorial is now live! I used YouTube's new Course feature to split the tutorial into three videos that will be available in one place. However, I’m concerned that the videos might also be uploaded separately on YouTube. I'll include the course link here for easier access: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW...
