Bolt ready
Bolt oli äsken päättelykeijun vastaanotolla ja on nyt valmis. Tätä tuskin voi venytellä märkänä, koska kuivanakin se ulottuu idästä länteen. Sain juuri ja juuri kuvattua sen kerran ilman, että joku kissa istuu sen päällä
Bolt just met the finshing fairy and is ready now. This hardly can be blocked wet because even as dry it reaches from east to west. I was just able to take one photo before a cat sit on it.

Sunnuntai
The scarf is getting somewhere, but slowly... Am I the onlyone who has fell into some spring hibernation? I am so tried I could sleep around the clock.
Hmm? Maybe I am not the only one...
Something strange has happened to this bag of yarn. There are holes and...

Liskohuivi
Here is finally the waveborder scarf. The border is taken from Multnomah scarf, but otherwise it is not exactly the same.
This took 2 x 100 g (800 m all together) and there was 2 g left. This is somewhat surprising because the scarf is not any bigger than those that are made of 400 m.... It has not been soaked yet though. And maybe I will not do it because then it will reach from east to west. But what then? Iron it? It can not be left like that. Baa. I´ll think about it tomorrow.
I should get those blocking wires, but where do you find them and I don´t even know what they are called in finnish?
So called kids were here for dinner. These are basicly adults but when you give them too much food they are only able to look at magic eye-books.

Uusi yritys
I am obsessed with this. Surely I have to be able to knit this, I have done projects far more difficult... It is a stupid wave border. Charge!
OHO! Katsokaa värieroa eiliseen iltaan kun kuva on otettu lampun valossa ja tänään auringon valossa.
Whoa! Check the difference in colour between this (sunshine) and yesterday (evening + lamp).

This scarf is getting close to 400 stitches and I was planning to make there a Multomah-edge. But hmpfh, it doesn´t seem to work for me and I get lost at some point. Now I have ripped 8 rows twice and I am beginning to believe. I dug up that edge-book and let´s see if I find something there.
In the beginning I had 2 x 100g and this was I have left.
Sylvi is getting fat in the middle and new Mustis and Jaffas are being born in about two weeks. And then it shall be over. Finito. No more kitties. Thanks. For some time...
I was thinking about an orange scarf next.
Mokka is wonderful cat. The face and legs are almost black yet brown. The eyes are bright blue. She will be 10 years. Time is fying...

Vacation
Olen jotenkin juuttunut tällaisiin wonnabee-kuvioneuleisiin... Sitäpaitsi tuo on sikalämmin yhdistelmä. Itsellä on ollut tuollaiset koko talven ja olen niitä kylvänyt melkolailla myös ympäristöön... ehkä 10 paria ainakin.
A friend from USA is coming to stay in Finland for a little longer time. I have to get her mittens ready for wednesday. The yarns are Drops Nepal and Noro Kureyon colour 124.
I am stuck in these wonnabe-colourful patterns. And by the way that is a super warm combination. I have had a pair of my own for this winter and I have also given at least 10 pairs to friends around...
Aivottomien huivi. Peruskolmio. Lankana itse värjättyä merinoa vuorotellen vihreäturkoosina ja turkoosisinisenä. Kahdella langalla kutomisessa on se hyvä puoli, ettei sekoa lisäyksissä. Reunaan täytyy vielä kehittää jotain kieroa.
A brainless scarf. Basic triangle. Yarn is merino (dyed by me) greenish teal and blue turqoise. The thing to knit something like this with two yarns is that you don´t get lost with additions. I still have to get something twisted for the edge...
And then I felt some pulling...
Happy skiing (ski? sking? ski´ing?) vacation for southern Finland! We have got all the snow. Which is melting at the moment by the way...

Loppiainen
All winter I have wanted to make a knitted tube and as soon as I saw this in Jaanas blog I knew that this is it! Raverly link Stockholm-Helsinki. Yarn is Drops Lima 6 skeins = 300 g. This is for someone who has a birthday tomorrow so I may get busy later a t night....
Because little kitties are very sweet when they sleep in a cream box Kaapo wanted to have his share also. But if you drink all the cream you can not fit in the box any more...
She-hyeenas moved to the breeders house today but Jaffa is still here and wishes to find a home...

Home sweet home
This is Maia (Raverly link), Yarn is Wollmeise merino Fuchsia, wooden beads
This is hybrid of Saroyan and Baktus. Yarn Cascade 220 Birch heather
Lomalla on tullut kudottua. Mies jo kerran kysyi, että miksi minä aina kudon? Höh. Mitä sitten pitäisi tehdä? Pureskella kynsiä? Tästä sentään on jotain hyötyä. Jos vaikka taas tulee sellainen kamala talvi, niin on sitten sukkia ja muita.
I have been knitting during the vacation. My husband once asked me why do I knit all the time? Hmph. What should I do then? Bite my nails? At least this is beneficial. In case we get a horrible winter again I will have socks and other warm things.
Kotona ollaan omassa sängyssä kuorsaamassa.
Finally at home snoring in my own bed.

Daybreak
The dog is visiting us for a couple of weeks, cats are furious...
Tässä sitten shaali valmiina, Daybreak (Raverly).
Lankoina ovat Kainuunharmas by Ilu (ruskea) ja itse Kool-aidilla värjätty Kamena (punertava)
Lopputulos näyttää vähän mansikkaraparperi-piirakalta... Itse huivi on mahtava. Tuo on isoin koko ja vaikka lopussa silmukoita on enemmän kuin laki sallii, niin on se vaivan arvoista. Huivi asettuu ihmisen (tai koiran tai kissan) ympärille paremmin kuin tavallinen kolmiohuivi.
Here is it. Daybreak (Raverly). Yarns: brown yarn Kainuu grey sock yarn (Finnish lamb endangered species) by Ilu and Kamena dyed by me with Kool-aid (red yarn).
The result looks a bit like a strawberry-rhubarb pie... The shawl is really great. There are more stiches at the end than the law allows but I think it is worth it. It wraps around you (or the dog or the cat) better than a triangle.

Bat-Baktus
Today as I dragged myself home from the work I found that hanging from the door.... Yes. It is possible that this sort of a thing can hang on your door. No, I didn´t know that could happen. Now I know. Just makes me wonder what else could possibly be hanging on the door if that was there... One more fobia.
Yes. It has ears. And legs.
It is multypurpose ja cottony. The ears nicely set on your forehead.
To keep my mental balance I will use the rest of the evening to knit that. You need no brain for that. Just keep going diagonal enough.

Noro Sekku
Nuo tuossa... Ne ovat Noro Sekku-lankaa. Uusi tuttavuus, pitsivahvuus ja kerällä on 420 metriä. Puolet on puuvillaa, loppu villaa, nylonia ja silkkiä. Yritin aloittaa Zetor-huivia, mutta puihin meni. No, Zetor on vanha viholliseni, vain kerran olen saanut sen kudotttua. Pääsin jo varmaan 50 kierrosta kun toinen laita alkoi näyttää joltain ihan muulta ja tuo lanka.... siitä ei ota erkkikään selvää.
Those up there... That is Noro Sekku-yarn. A new friend, lace weight and about 420 meters per ball. Half of it is cotton and the rest is wool, nylon and silk. I started a Zetor-scarf but had to give up. Zetor is an old enemy of mine... only once have I completed one. I got about 50 rounds but then had to give up because the other end looked too suspicious and that yarn... it didn´t help at all.
Sekku what shall you be when you grow up?
