Welcome to the Artesanitarium

My fortress of solitude.

I design out of the box knitting patterns for extraordinary people.

I want to show you a world where feminine and delicate knitwear don’t require thin yarn or small needles.

Knitwear design.
Knit fashion quick & easy! Big needles, thick yarn!
I help people make beautiful clothing and accessories.

Winter is coming. Old concept but with a modern tw

Winter is coming. Old concept but with a modern twist.
This one won't be ready for a long long time.

Summer is over. I've been freezing my toes for a week now and decided it was time for a pair of in-between season socks! Lighter than proper winter socks. I went for the Else's Estonian Lace Socks by @knitted_in_switzerland

I'm not a huge lace fan and definitely not a lace knitters, but this pattern has an easy enough lace pattern for me to follow and it has both written and carted instructions!
And the pattern is 25% off until August 27th 😁🌞

This is what I have after 3 days of knitting! I've only had to rip back 5 times because my hand are faster than my brain 🧠

The design is lovely and I can't wait to wear these!!!

The yarn I'm using is Voie de Vie Yarn @denisevoiedevie Merino Sock in color Backyard Patty

FINALLY! I'm so happy to get these off my needles, I have other socks to knit!

As I was drenching these two into their bath last night I got totally discouraged about the design.
It doesn't seem so clever anymore. Meh.
