Charlotte's Knitted Web: June 2012

http://cookalotje.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html

I knit, I cook, I read and I write about that. Friday, June 29. None of the aforementioned recipes. Made it yesterday. I made something else. Something similar, but different. I made Rhubarb Grapefruit Ginger Confiture. With large chunks of grapefruit peel and just a hint of ginger. Here's what I did:. I cleaned about 1500 grams of rhubarb. And cut it into little 3 cm pieces. I peeled the skin of 5 grapefruits. I added 1000 grams of gelling sugar. I sterilized jars, put the jam in a measuring cup with a ...

Charlotte's Knitted Web: April 2012

http://cookalotje.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html

I knit, I cook, I read and I write about that. Wednesday, April 11. WIP Wednesday - Log Cabin. A little while ago I read about a yarn bombing club that needed yarn. So I gave away all the yarn that I could not see myself use, ever. Neon orange acrylic, mohair, fantasy yarn. All out! It was about 3 giant shoppers full of yarn. It felt so good to get all that. Yarn out of my house! Now all the yarn I had filled one chest, about 1 cubic meter, 30 cubic feet big. Tuesday, April 3. It was cold. Not as col...

Charlotte's Knitted Web: FO - The Woodland Shawl

http://cookalotje.blogspot.com/2012/09/fo-woodland-shawl.html

I knit, I cook, I read and I write about that. Monday, September 10. FO - The Woodland Shawl. Working and studying really focused is not really an option today and since I needed to reinstall windows on my laptop anyways I'm hiding in the living room, Ludovico Einaudi. Blasting from the stereo to drown out the noises from the back of the house. He composes and plays the most peaceful contemporary classical music I have heard in a while. He has also composed the music for the movie Intouchables. Next to t...

Charlotte's Knitted Web: August 2012

http://cookalotje.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html

I knit, I cook, I read and I write about that. Friday, August 10. Summer is finally here. Well, we had three days without rain and temperatures above 20 Celsius. In my Dutch frame of mind, that is summer. The city seams to awaken from the wet and dreary autumnal summer we had. Rain, rain, rain and cold. The weather looks good for the weekend and then it will go back to what it was. Wet. Cold. Dreary. Can't wait. And just enjoying being outside. Powder to bake green tea cakes! I had already picked one pro...

I knit, I cook, I read and I write about that. Tuesday, August 16. Remember that bolero cardigan. I knit for my sister-in-law? I finished it a little while ago and I had some yarn left over.

About 50 grams of yarn;. Row 1: Kfb all stitches (16 st). Row 2: *kfb 1 stitch, k1* repeat till the end of the round (24 st). Row 32: *...

Charlotte's Knitted Web: Rhubarb!

http://cookalotje.blogspot.com/2012/06/rhubarb.html

I knit, I cook, I read and I write about that. Thursday, June 28. I have a lot of rhubarb from my mum's garden. And I mean, a lot. Thankfully my mom has, next to a lot of rhubarb in her garden, a rhubarb cookbook. So now all I have to do is choose a recipe. Or two. Or three. There really is a lot of rhubarb! Do you have a favourite rhubarb recipe you are willing to share? Thursday, June 28, 2012 at 12:51:00 PM GMT 2. Oh, ik hou van rabarber! Heb een hele lekkere recept voor rabarber schuimgebak taart!
