Yardage for Year 2011

maanantai 28. marraskuuta 2011

Long time no see.

Wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey thing. I haven't been here for eons, somehow I'm good at neglecting my blogs. While I was gone I developed huge fangirlism over Doctor Who, had dislocated elbow for 2.5 months (for real!), learned to crochet, got myself nålebinding needle and dyed some yarn.

While I was gone I designed couple of things, this birdy:

He is moving to US in Friday, when I get money to send stuff. I'm particularly proud of this sweater I designed last mont, my very first big self-designed project!


I based the design on old traditional Finnish jackets and Swedish cardigans. Colorwork figures are Icelandic staves, Dreamstaves on sleeves and "Fear Inducer" (in enemies) on collar.

Right now I'm working on "Angels have the Blue Box" mittens, about to start decreases on mainbody on first mitten. Scary. :D

Oh yeah, and the dyed skein!

Just basic Finnish wool and reactive dyes. I named the colorway "Täysverinen ämmä" aka Fullblooded hag, hence the picture in the photo.

That's about it. Can't promise more frequent updates, but I'll try.
