Mi chiamo Carlotta e da sempre abito in un piccolo paesino di montagna, a San Marcello Pistoiese, Toscana e per passare il tempo ho iniziato a fare la maglia. E fu subito amore! Così spendo ogni momento libero a sferruzzare, producendo una quantità di lavori più che superflua. Ma mi piace, che ci posso fare?
Adoro viaggiare e ho visitato Paesi lontani che hanno arricchito ulteriormente il mio bagaglio di sferruzzatrice maniaca, è così che in Nuova Zelanda ho imparato a filare, per esempio.
A volte provo a scrivere e realizzare qualche pattern, ma sono ancora alle prime armi e comunque la scelta su riviste, libri e siti internet è già così ampia che la mia lista di "lavori in corso" si allunga tutti i giorni e mi ritrovo con troppe idee che girano per la testa!
Mi trovo su Ravelry come Carli84 e su Facebook come Carlotta Cecchi.
My name is Carlotta and I always lived in a little village on the mountains, in San Marcello, Tuscany. To spend the time I begun to knit and I immediately loved it! So I spend every free second knitting, producing a large amount of stuff, often more than what I need...but I like it!
I love travelling and I have been in places where I could enrich my luggage of knitting maniac, that's how I learned in New Zealand to spin, for example.
Sometimes I try to write and knit some personal pattern, but I'm still a beginner and anyway the choice in magazines, books and Internet sites is already so large that my list of "work in progress" gets longer and longer every day and I find myself with too many ideas spinning in my head!

Hey Carlotta, I saw your beautiful finished Lana Grossa Organico long jacket on Ravelry and thought you might be the right person for me to seek some help with.
RispondiEliminaI am currently working on the same pattern but I have difficulty understanding the decreasing or cast off instructions for hip slant. I do not understand all the instructions on co 9x1st,on both sides 1x4 st on both sides etc . Does that mean cast off or does it mean decrease? And 9x1 st = 9 stitches? 1 x4 st = 4 stitches?
Appreciate any help you can offer.
I have been to Tuscany and love it, though I have never been to San Marcello. Italy is such a beautiful country and you have such lovely yarn shops too :)
Hope to hear from you soon.
Ciao.
