Bubble bobble mittens

What happens if you combine cute dragons, bubbles and fantastic 8-bit music? You get one of the best games ever made. I spent a lot of time playing Bubble bobble at friends and at home when I grew up, controlling Bub and Bob through the levels and rescuing the girls (if I actually managed to get the happy ending). This pattern features the dragons on clean black mittens. It's a bit tricky to knit as it requires a lot of color changes, but the end result is really nice =)

Pokéball hat

Seems like summer has ended early and the autumn is here. Been back to work for two weeks now, explaining the lack of updates here. Will get back to try to write something here once a week again now and first up is another Pokémon-related pattern, this Pokéball hat.

Will be interesting to see how long this Pokémon Go trend will keep up, but for now I'll make the most of it and will be out catching some of my own =)

Harry Potter (house) mittens

Yesterday the new Harry Potter book was released. I have been working on mittens that match the houses of Hogwarts for some time and actually finished the last one today. The colors can of course easily be adapted to your favourite colors or the colors of your favourite team.

Pattern is available on both Ravelry and Etsy.
