I DO knit sometimes!

Only to prove that I haven't forgotten to knit, and HOW to knit, I thought I should put up a pic of my latest work- a poncho! I have a lovely denim jacket, but it is often too chilly to be out with it- I needed something to wear on top of it. time went by and despite my searches I couldn't find anything good enough in any stores.

Then Jen sent me those cool pattern books- and I ended up knitting one from this book . I didn't have yarn from Cleckheaton, and used Alaska from Garnstudio instead

Samuti on igal soovijal võimalik tulla ja vaadata erinevaid lõngasid, ning mul on kaasa võetud ka viimased mustrikataloogid, samuti ilusad Knit-Pro vardad, mida saab uudistada.
Ma nimelt kaalun nende varraste maaletoomist, kuna paistab, et huvi on suur.

Lõngad on teel! Lõngad on teel! Lõngad on teel!!!

Seega saab need varsti postiga ettetellijatele koju saata, või siis lähemalt pärit rahvas saab ise järgi tulla. Kuna lattu jääb veel terve hulk poolikuid kilosid, on siis ka võimalus neid lähemalt vaadelda ja katsuda siis, kui olen Eestis käimas, 3-10 märtsini Nõmme Keskuse lähedal, Võsu peatuse juures.

Et ruumi teha, on need lõngad jätkuvalt müügis nii maili teel tellimisel longamaania@novus.ee, kui ka kohapeal, kus saab ka nisama lõngajuttu ajada.

Kes aga eriti, kohe eriti! lõngasid fännavad,  Mustrimaailmas plaanime mõnusat kohvi-koogiga DROPS lõõngateemalist kokkusaamist teiste lõngamaania kuradikesele oma sõrme andnud maniakkidega ;) Teretulemast!

OOTEL

Lõngamaniakk närib küüsi ja ootab lõnga...... Ok, ma olen Norras veedetud poole aasta jooksul jõudnud järeldusele, et Norras liigub kõik aeglaselt- autojuhid, poemüüad, ning eriti bürokraatia. Aga äri??? Lühikokkuvõte mu mõtteküigust: Garnstudio võiks oma käpakesi kiiremini liigutada ja mulle mu 100 kg kulda ja karda kätte toimetada!!!

SIIT SAAB IKKA JA JÄLLE LÕNGA!   

Keeping warm

Finally I have got time to breath out and show some of my latest knittings. 

For a longer time I had a feeling for a vest. I kind of really, really needed a vest! One day when I passed one of my fave boutiques in Kongsberg (yes, expensive one), I saw a simple cardy on their window- I snipped off the arms from it - in my mind, of course- and voilá: I knew how my simple vest was supposed to look like. I used a pattern from Garnstudio, modified it after my needs, used 400 gr soft pink alpaca-acrylic mix yarn, and the result is here:

I made something for one of my neighbours - Ann-Margret - who lives in a very big house, but that house is old and badly isolated so it is very chilly in there all year around. In the evenings Ann-Margret has a habit of taking a large glass of tea or hot chocolate with her to the living room, and do some knitting. But in the mean while the hot drink gets cold... So I made her a pair of cupwarmers, using new pure wool and Kido Mohair:

Warm and surprised :D

It is time to apologize and make up the time I have not put my own handwork much focus on :) Well, to be entirely honest, I haven't completed much of it... Few wrist warmers, and a vest. 

I made these wrist warmers only to help a friend of my to learn to knit- so we ad a little "make it together" weekend :D It happened shortly before x'mas, this is why i chose the color deep red- I used three different yarns: kid-silk, alpaca and golden tread, knitting it all together. The result was pretty nice, especially as I made them in two different (and certainly simple) ways. 

And then, as I had some very nice yarn fro Garnstudio, DROPS Alpaca staring at me, making my fingers itch, I made another couple a soon after, willing to try out the spiral running rib.

I don't have a picture of my bright pink vest as I have not sewed it together yet, and I don't have buttons for it yet, either. 

But what I do have a pic of is most of the stuff Jen sent me from Australia. It is something anyone could wish she had received! Jen have spent so much time chroceting a blanket for my baby- how nice is that?! And Jen's Mum knitted me a pair of wollen knee-socks, something I really needed in our cold Norwegian winter. There was a knit-set to make "home-booties" (something I should tell some more when I actually make them), and two GREAT books with Beautiful patterns, one of them with garmets of a more luxuriuos style (from Patons) and another one more for everyday use (from Cleckheaton- a quality yarn producer in Australia), I will surely knit several of them! And finally, there was another book made by Jen- filled with exciting patterns from old Danish magazines and other places. I was so pleased with each and every item in this box :D
