March Faves

I love the month of March, spring begins, flowers bloom, colors pop and like that wouldn't be enough, it's my birthday month!!! :) So yeah, my favorite day it's 12 and this year it's been a lovely day, even being far from my family and most of my friends. My cake was DELICIOUS!!! But today I'll share with you all some of my favorite things I've been using this month. I've been loving this nail polish this month, I was never brave enough to go for an orange shade, but this year I decided to be and I love it. This is Essie Chubby Cheeks , I love the name, I love the color and, like all essie nail polishes, I love the formula and brush. Oh....and it lasts long! I usually wear a base coat under my polishes to protect my nails, lately I've been using Save the Nail by Nails inc London, it's a treatment base coat and it's really good. My nails got damaged coz I paint them a lot, but this has helped. For a top coat I use Sa...

How to knit a Triangle Scarf

I've seen these Caron cakes everywhere and was very excited to get some colours and start some projects with them. So I went ahead and ordered a few, and the first think I've made was a triangle scarf, knitted in a garter stitch with kfb increases and k2tog decreases. The colour I used for this project is called cookies and cream, ain't that cute?! This is the finished shawl, I've added two Pom-poms on the corners and I think it looks amazing! It was very simple to knit, I followed the instructions of the pattern that came with the yarn and voila, in no time, I had this beautiful, soft shawl or scarf, however you want to call it! I have a video tutorial for this scarf on my YouTube channel, have a look and let me know how you get on! Happy knitting!

How to knit the easiest sock

https://youtu.be/OWjdH3lMVFc A while black I uploaded a video on my YouTube Channel, showing how to knit the easiest socks. In the video tutorial I explain the technique, however, I was asked to write it all down in sizes. The interesting thing about this pattern is that you can adjust it according to your foot length. Now, for kids, let's say 3-4 years old, I would cast on 32, work in the round for a few inches, however long you want the cuff to be, then knit the colour contrast yarn in and knit the foot. At this point you can measure it, making sure you leave an inch to shape the toe. For older children, 5-6 years old, I'd cast on 36 sts and work it exactly as the video shows you. Then for +7 years old, you'll be ok to cast on 40sts. The same works for ladies small, and then for men, you should cast on 44sts small and 48 sts large. I need to specify that all these instructions are for worsted weight yarn worked with 4mm needles. You can use DPNs and knit one so...
