A few days ago, I just was talking about snow and Fingerless mittens. The snow has gone away but it is still frozing here and these are finished and patterns are published 
After covering my hands, I have to protect my ears from cold weather 
Just finished a hat and two tams:
Now, just working on some socks in a shiny color, just to keep the bad weather out of my home:
For these, I just knit a lot of twisted stitches and I love them 
In the next days, I’ll cast-on for some sweaters, the yarn has arrived this morning in a lovely box!
Wish you a wonderful day 
See you soon, bien à Vous

Wish you an happy day full of knitting

C’est l’histoire d’une tartine et d’un pot de confiture ou l’histoire sans fin :
Il était une fois, une tartine qui voulait se revêtir d’un magnifique manteau. Le pot de confiture venant à son secours, lui proposa ses services et la recouvrit d’un magnifique manteau rouge écarlate. La tartine était ravie.
Le pot de confiture nettement moins: “Que vais-je faire de ces magnifiques framboises qui se sentent fort seules ?”.
La tartine, très heureuse, n’en était pas moins fort malheureuse pour son ami le pot de confiture. Décidant de remédier à cet état, elle appela quelques amies tartines afin de réconforter son ami et de l’aider à terminer son pot.
Le pot de confiture, fort réjoui, se mit au travail et commença à recouvrir ses nouvelles amies du même manteau. Mais, et vous le devinerez aisément, le fond de son pot ne suffit pas à transformer toutes ses nouvelles amies en ravissantes et appétissantes tartines. Il en fût fort triste, bien que très heureux d’avoir terminé son pot. Afin de satisfaire ses nouvelles amies, il appela à la rescousse quelques amis pot de confiture ……
Mes pots de confitures :
Qui sont les fonds de pot de :
Qui ont tartiné :
Il m’en reste encore

After completing my Crocheted potholder using my Granny square carré soleil pattern, I just had always a lot of left over from my Grandala square embroidery pocket. So I’ve decided to try to work a little round pocket and I’m happy to share with you the tutorial 
I know, I’m not serious, so many unfinished projects 
but it’s so fantastic to begin new project, to follow an idea and make it alive 
So here is the round pocket Carré soleil :
And now the tutorial:

Rnd 1 6 sc in ring, place marker in 1st sc for beginning of round and move it as each round is completed (6 sc)

Rnd 3 *sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc* repeat from * to * 6 times (18 sc)
Rnd 4 *sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc* repeat from * to * 6 times (24 sc)
