Chai Tea Latte, Starbucks Copy Cat

I’m totally obsessed with Starbucks’ Chai Tea Latte. When I walk into a Starbucks, the only question I ask myself is whether it’s hot or iced. The taste is not complicated to reproduce. On the other hand, the syrupy, slightly spicy effect is much more so. Now, with this recipe, I can make as much as I like and even fill swimming pools with it!

I have a lot of knitting desires now that the mojo is back. Especially as I find that knitting a few stitches here and there is much easier when doing knitolire rather than knitflix. My list of desires (and commitments) is long ... and it's only getting longer as the days go by.
The same, but not the same. My socks will be cousins, or sisters, or best buddies. After finishing the first, I didn't feel like knitting the second in exactly the same way. This is what we do most of the time on "classic" pairs. But this trio of colors won my heart the moment I put the three little ones down together.
The one who started it all. Premier Flocon is the very first pattern I wrote and published. I think this gives him a special place in my heart. So, in this month of Socktober, I had to highlight it, especially as I'll be reworking it a little this month to bring you an updated version. Premier Flocon is the boss for October 2023. As such, you can benefit from a 15% discount on this pattern for the whole month of October 2023.
My life as a designer, one stitch at a time 🧶🐑 The most-read posts of the month, my non-conclusive test of embroidery on knitting, my learning to write a cardigan pattern, my readings on darning, Elsa's shawl, and all the projects I have on the needles.
It's possible to read and knit. The sentence I never thought I'd write. I've changed my mind and now think it's just as possible to do Knitflix as Tricolivre. If you'd like to try your hand at knitting, here are a few ideas to make things easier for you.
I think the reason I love knitting socks so much is because I have a passion for heels. Transforming a simple yarn into a finished piece, giving it shape through decreases or increases and volume with shortened rows is still as magical for me even after all these years. A bit like jumping from 1D to 3D in a few rows.
The minute cake is the cake that will taste like my summer vacations for the rest of my life, I think. I've been trying to find this recipe for a long time but haven't been able to put my finger on it. My madeleine de Proust XXL version. I've adapted the recipe found at Aux Fourneaux very slightly by removing a little of the classic sugar and adding vanilla sugar. I also added my own special touch with a sugar crust on top of the cake.
This pair of socks that was supposed to be all simple and no-fuss, all jersey and plain won't be after all 😆 I had all the best intentions in the world when I started them. Except that I don't think I have enough yarn to make the whole pair. This implies a change of strategy.
I always start thinking about my next project when I'm in the final days of a knit. This time, after my Vinterskog sweater, I wanted something fast and effective. So we'll be wearing socks, or sockettes to be more precise!
