Here comes my Instagram review of May. We were on vacation for two weeks and as it is on vacation - when you let your soul dangle and the world somehow turns completely different - I came up with a trillion new ideas, all of which I diligently jotted down in my new organization tool called Trello. Don't know it? Then read the detailed article by Katharina and get infected!

Sometime in May we were in Hamburg for a few days and I used the car ride there to quickly knit a cardigan for Fräulein's little friend (1). Freestyle raglan-from-the-top. Fits like a glove. The Fräulein would now like a cardigan in partner look. If I'm ever bored, I think about it.

After a very nice conversation at the h&h fair in March I got a package from Addi to try, in it was also this olive wood circular needle (2). I knitted a little with it on vacation, it is not only beautiful to look at, but also feels great in the hand. It will soon be available in stores - unfortunately not yet for the Click System. I'll tell you more about the click system soon, because I've tested it very intensively and I'm thrilled.

In May I knitted my favorite new mohair shawl (3), the tutorial for it was available here for free on the blog and I hardly ever take the shawl off!

At my almost weekly knitting meeting with a couple of very nice knitting enthusiastic ladies from our daycare environment I admired the baby blankets from Heidi. One of them is this gray blanket (4) with the crochet border, isn't it beautiful? By the way, she inspired me to actually start the series about baby blank ets.

I have another favorite part, namely my Quicksilver (5), unchained and I notice that I have not shown him to you yet. That went under before loud farm and vacation. Will make up for it!

For my birthday I had wished for a wool winder and a reel and since then is wound here (6) professionally. I had recently reported about it, I love my new wool winder very much!

At the farm, I cast on a new baby corner from Como by Lamana (7) and have been busy knitting my Anna cardigan (8&9), which is only missing the last sleeve. However, I'm afraid it could use more length - but we'll see!
