Yesterday I was looking back on old rainy moments. It came back to me that a few years ago, I think it was the end of June 2016, I was in London for a few days to celebrate my birthday and I had decided that I would spend the day at Kew Gardens. The previous…
When I start writing these lines, I have been back from Sicily for 5 days. These days, when they asked me how it had gone, the first answer was always about the intolerable heat, but Sicily was much more. This was also a trip that lasted a blink of an eye and I wish I…
For me, slowness, better known as slow living, is reading books, listening to music with headphones on the sofa, dedicating time to my plants, and nourishing creativity by reading inspirational magazines. And again, writing without a purpose. For a long time, as soon as I discovered the concept of slow living, I tried to make it as instagrammable as…
These photos I took at Easter, almost a month ago. In the next two or three days, I had also chosen which shots to use and had edited them, ready to be used. And then I waited. I’ve been waiting to have the right words to describe why I always like to walk through these…
Yesterday I went back to photograph two wisteria trees. One, more modest, is behind a gate, but it shows up anyway. It shields other hidden flowers; they too, when you can see them, you can’t help but admire them. The second wisteria is cheeky. You don’t see where it has its roots, but you can…
March saw the first flowers in the city. To be honest I didn’t expect it, maybe because I still feel like hibernating. I’ve been working with colors for a few weeks and this urgency doesn’t seem to want to end. I bought a bunch of buttercups of different colors and it reminded me of the…
I have a woolen skirt, found at a stall at the Balon in Turin a few years ago and I love it: it’s warm, comfortable and with a tartan pattern. Since I bought it every year, I can’t wait for it to start getting a little cold so I can put it on. I wear…
From the end of November, the desire to create patterns has returned with a loud voice. In the last week I started a scarf, bought some wool that I had wanted to try for at least two years; I started and finished a hat and within two nights I had a new idea and the…
Once upon a time, I kept a blog where I shared my journey in slow fashion. I started to really dig into slow and sustainable fashion when I started to knit sweaters both for me and even more when I started to sell them. The story behind my knitted sweaters is long and for another…
December 1st, 2021. I have plans in mind, but I still do not want to say them ut loud. I wanted to start December with a full immersion of fairy lights and pine needles and I think I went to the right place. I’m talking about Raw Milano in Corso Magenta.

Like every year, I like to mark the beginning of November by sharing a couple of patterns dedicated to the arrival of cold weather. There is a knitting pattern and one for crochet. They are both free and you can find them on Ravelry, both in Italian and in English. These are the crochet Decorative…
