🎂🎂🎂 7 years of ilka + nina 🎂🎂🎂

As you can see, we spared no expense or effort to really hype up our 7th shop birthday! 😄 The balloon had a hole this morning, and the internet is so slow that Google hasn't sent a great photo review yet! So what! 😉

XOXO - ilka + nina

I'm definitely Team tubular bind off...
It just looks beautiful.
And you? How do you finish your knitted pieces?

That wasn't planned. While I was knitting my sock project on Saturday, I realized I needed another bigger project. So I grabbed a box of #cottonwool from Lana Grossa for a #swatch for #sailorswifttop. But what to do while it dries? Maybe the #stripehypesweater - bot Kutovakika and #hereweare 😆

I did it!
Although this week deviated significantly from the norm—or perhaps because of it?—I was able to complete a large batch of w.i.p.s.

Have a nice weekend!

Unfortunately...
We would love to be here for you. While Nina still needs to recover, Ilka has now also broken down. We don't want to share it, so with a heavy heart we've decided to keep the store closed today. 🤕🤧

Restock...
You asked for new Bobbiny yarn. You'll have them. This time it's mostly beige, brown, and green tones, which were the first to go last time.

Happy knitting

Time for an invisibility cloak...
I'm soooo tired right now, so my new invisibility cloak, aka the mud thing, is coming in handy.
Today, the pattern by knit.ding is out! Congratulations ❤️

Work injury....
Luckily nothing serious, but the knot (braid) in the knitting pattern has become a knot in my head. That's probably why the thread tension was a bit too tight and cut my finger 🙄🤣
No matter, the #poppyding will be beautiful. I'm knitting the #testknit for knit.ding.
