How do you get back into regular blogging?
Maybe it's simple, just start with an easy post - or an easy sweater like this:
well... where to begin.
First of all - I love it out there. I love the long bike ride through the city. I love being in beautiful buildings, learning from talented people (some younger than me - imagine!), having fun, working hard, drinking bad coffee...
uh - and taking a machine knitting class! Now, that was fun. And fast! I used a whole cone of Shetlandwool to experiment (thank you stash).
I ended up with a huge cowl in Kauni (took me about 20 minutes!), and a pair of wristwarmers, still neding to be sewn together. So, all those cones in the stash are in good use now. Pictures when there's light.
Speaking about my beloved stash: you want some? I've come to realize, I have no where left to hide my yarn, and not enough time to knit it all.
So, I've listed quite a lot (and more to come) over here
This is pure luxury - love it.
The pattern is Simmer Dim by Gudrun Johnston.
The yarn is Casbah in Smoke.
The result is luxurious and buttery soft.

This skein, wanted to become a Holden Shawlette, and I'm so happy it did.

Cheap indian bangle from Tiger.
Enemal earrings from my boyfriend (from a small shop on Ryesgade).
Brooch from H&M.
Necklace made from Christmas ornament from Thora Finnsdottir.
Brass star from Sackidet Road.
Plastic skull earrings from the boys department in H&M.
UncommonThread turned Holden.
Owl earrings, I was lucky to get from Amalthea - Sum of a Ditch (amazing work).
And my bracelet made from a bit of leftover Casbah. I've been wearing this for 2 weeks now, and it's starting to look a bit worn, I think I need a substitute in a yarn with less cashmere... (But I adore the smoke color of this particular yarn - and the softness!).
I also need to stop using my hand as a notepad. It's just so... handy...
