I was thinking: what if this type of post became a kind of creative journal? A diary where I show you all my experiments, serious projects, jobs, and things I’ll keep to myself. What do you say? Do you like the idea? The blanket I started working on this blanket last fall. As often happens…
Diary of calm and behind the scenes of a simple life as an artisan. June 2023 Letter n.21 Index back to blogging new products Back to blogging Since I wrote and sent the May letter, I’ve returned to blogging and you can already find 3 articles to read. As I wrote to you in the…
Taking a certain type of photograph is not easy or automatic. I would like to shoot because I have something to say and not because I feel obligated, this was one of the problems I had when I was photographing every day and I felt obligated to Instagram. It was an excellent exercise in style,…
I’d like to go back to a habit I started years ago, circa 2017 (I know the date because I found one of the original posts, I think). I shared a photo starring a cup of coffee, but tea, chocolate, or water could also be fine. The aim was to remind me to take at…
I’ve realized that, at some point, I’ve simply stopped. Stopped trying, stopped feeling joy, stopped caring. But it had started to hurt, not so much for the very different number I saw in the “likes” (obviously that aspect didn’t help either, especially for a person like me who has always sought the approval of others,…
Diary of calm and behind the scenes of a simple life as an artisan. May 2023 Letter n.20 Index changes new products Changes In the last period I have started to reflect a lot on the direction I would like to take my business and in this May letter I would like to start talking…
I was photographing another piece of the new necklaces and a reflection was born spontaneously. Maybe these won’t be the definitive necklaces (by the way, when can a creative person say that something is definitive?), maybe they are a step, 1 step, or 10 before finding the combination I like best. So maybe even my…
August has come and gone and it’s time for another monthly round up. Knitting In August I’ve finished the sample for the Stripy Cuddle Sweater that I’ve design in collaboration with Kokon Yarn for their new chunky mohair yarn. Next week there will be the pre-launch for the pattern, but the real release will be…
The brunch was at Da Emilia, a really nice place near the University, where you can eat delicious food from Emilia Romagna (I would suggest to eat the maxi tigella with grilled vegetables and pistachio’s pesto, just perfect). Il brunch era Da Emilia, un posto molto carino vicino all’università che esprime perfettamente l’idea torinese di…
One of my favourite things to wear in Winter times: woolen socks with boots. Una delle mie cose preferite da indossare in inverno: calze di lana e scarponi. I’ve made and wore for the first time a cropped sweater. Ho fatto e indossato, per la prima volta, un maglione cropped. …
[Versione italiana sotto] As I was writing on my journal and looking for new stamps or stickers to add to my collection, I had an idea. At the beginning of every month I always like to make a monthly spread where I write the calendar, some key dates, I add inspirational pictures or quotes; sometimes…
Another week, new experiments, new projects on the needles. [Nuova settimana, nuovi esperimenti e nuovi progetti sul ferri]. The first tomato from our balcony. [Il primo pomodoro del nostro balcone]. I’ve created a mailing list for my test knitting. [Ho creato una mailing list apposta per quando ho bisogno di test knitters].
