Christmas without kitsch? Unthinkable for Sabine! Since the first candle was lit on the Advent wreath and the scent of Christmas cookies passes through the air, her heart has been beating faster. Christmas kitsch, or let’s say kitsch in general, is not an oversight for them, but a way of life – especially if it is made of wool. The more colorful and glittering the knitting projects, the better!
More is more – even on the needles
You have to know, for Sabine there are no too cheesy knitting ideas. Not during Christmas and not during the rest of the year. Glitzy yarns, woolly angels or colorful girls are absolutely their thing.
After all, why focus on simple elegance when knitted Christmas figures or sparkling scarves are so much more fun?
Decent minimalism? Maybe next year.
In the midst of soft yarns and sparkling knitting accessories, real Christmas wonders are created. How about colorful Nicholas boots for the fireplace, glittering stars for the tree or cuddly blankets in traditional Christmas colors?
Sabine is convinced: self-knit kitsch is the best kitsch. This is exactly what she wants to share with you in this post – and make herself a small Christmas present.
