Let met share my “photo journey” from the time I joined Sewrellas Holiday Sweater KAL, and knit my very first sweater – ever!
Do you want to read the story behind these pictures? You can! I wrote a little blog about this Knit-a-long.
Also, I share more knitting adventures on Instagram and Pinterest.
Scheepjes Roma Yarn for Sewrellas Holiday Sweater KAL
By the way, the yarn used for this knit sweater, is Scheepjes Roma. I believe the color is called either “donkerrood” or “wijnrood” in Dutch. Unfortunately, I only added this bit of information about 2 years after actually knitting the sweater. Therefore, I am a bit fuzzy on the details. I do remember where I bought the yarn, since it was sort of the first time I bought a “real brand” and I felt kinda nervous about it. But, since I was going to participate in a knit-a-long and was about to knit a serious sweater, I allowed myself the luxury. 😉
Biggest Craft Store in the Netherlands
Anyway, I bought the Scheepjes Roma yarn at the biggest craft store of the Netherlands, Stuifzand Allerhande. That is a great place to get lost, by the way. They have aisles and aisles of yarn – and lots of other crafting goodness. A while ago I took a different turn (within the store) and ended up in the aisle with all kinds of handy tools. And yes, I bought stuff. A lot of stuff. For my DIY houses and more yarn. Obviously. The yarn was for, among other things, my 1DogWoof’s Zoodiacs Blanket.
