Last month, the summer has hit with full force... Nevertheless, of course, we do not let us stop knitting and our needles never remain empty. But some projects may need to take a summer break if they've already grown too big and are therefore too warm on the lap... or if the material doesn't really like to glide over the needles in the heat.

But whether at the seaside, at the pool, in the outdoor pool (in the best case) - or simply at home in the garden, the terrace or on the balcony... #nevernotknitting is our motto.

Still quite small and therefore quite suitable in the weather (even if not everyone necessarily likes to knit mohair in the heat) is currently Osaka from Sensai by ITO on the needles here - as an "in round" variant to avoid the left back rows and because this is actually a really great variation, which we discovered at a customer and in which we have fallen in love directly.

And then there will certainly be one or the other project, because Osaka is a dream piece, once he is finished but admittedly not exactly pure excitement while knitting. But he is the ideal project for on the side.

And what do you have on the needles right now?

"On the Needles" is a series from Maschenfein. What are you knitting in July? What has become of your last projects? Will you tell us here? We are looking forward to it! Just comment here under this post or link up in the links section. On Instagram we use the hashtag #ondennadelnjuli (and you'll also find projects from the last years of the same month there). Join us there as well!

You can link up for the whole month! Attention: You must put a backlink to this post or blog in your post, otherwise it will not work with the link tool. A backlink is nothing more than a link to this blog :)!

For all of you who are visiting here for the first time: Each month we'll collect your knitting projects by linking your respective blog posts to "On the Needles" here. You can find all past collections to browse in the On the Needles section.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!
