May. Adiós.
Adiós is the monthly series of crafty notes and captures of this beautiful world.
This month's Adiós I decided to do something different and instead of sharing sunlit photos, I am going to take you on a short night walk. You've already seen La Parroquia in the daylight, but I really wanted to show how it is transformed into a beautiful and mysterious castle at night.
May is the hottest month here, and the evenings are warm and velvet... I love how busy streets get empty and the town disappears in soft lights, quiet music and occasional roars of thunder in the nearby mountains...

Journey sweater. Honestly, it is my favorite sweater I have ever made. I enjoyed every single stitch of it! It was a challenge to design, but now the pattern is finally finished and being tested. I couldn't be more grateful to my wonderful test knitters and Ioana for all the help!
Crochet dress experiment is still in the swatch stage. I am trying to find the perfect stitch pattern for it and can't decide whether to make it holding one thread or two. I hope it will start taking shape in June.
Sand sweater. Love this textured experiment on my knitting machine! It is definitely much more time consuming than the stockinette garments, but this texture is worth it!
Arizona sweater. Having fun with an amazing Contiguous method!
Moeke cardigan. I am swatching for the second design for Moeke fall collection. The only thing that is clear for now is that it is going to be a cardigan. All the rest keeps changing in my head and hands.
Kram cardigan was with me for so many months. But I finally said goodbye to it and admitted that it isn't going o work out. Oh well, always something to learn!
One more exciting thing - two my dear knitting friends just got their projects off the needles and they used my patterns, I cannot express how happy it makes me! Zeta's Reindeer is so stunning - I love the color and yarn she chose. Zeta, thank you so much for all the support during these almost two years! I am so grateful I've found you here!
Dear Ioana just finished her La Flor - I love the neutral shade and the oversize look she chose! This is exactly how I envisioned it to be knit someday! And her cozy photos are so dreamy to look at!
This was my crafty May. Thank you for being with me! June is promising new projects, new World Crafter and fun giveaways for you!
I hope you had an amazing month!
Joining friends at Yarn Along today.
