Hiatus...you bet!

Since my announcement, I was forced to work a lot...and since my work allows for knitting but not sewing, I did knit:



This is the lace border for my Snowdrop shawl. And I love it :oD

Hiatus!

With a costuming deadline creeping up, I need to take a knitting hiatus!

See y'all in a few weeks!

And lest I forget...

a picture of my latest addition to the household (employed here with lovely Evilla laceyarn 8/1):

I am back!

Wehell, back I am and really busy straightening out everything that was sorely neglected these past few weeks.

And of course I have pictures (two that is) of my knitting done during my trip to my sisters'.


The Snowdrop Shawl, preblocked and yet without the finishing lace border. Done in Wollmeise's gorgeous lace yarn in the undyed colourway. Intendet first as a present for a very good friend of mine, I have since learned she'd rather like a brown coloured shawl, so I am going to keep this one! *yay*

This is the Rebecca Shawl I did before for a German Christmas Swap. As I cast off that one, I knew I needed one for myself and since my wonderful and great pal from SP10 had sent me a parcel full of lovely things, amongst them the prettiest red yarn speckled with colourful bits of gorgeousness, I decided this would be the right yarn. Sadly, my inability to take nice pictures produced only this blurry picture which does neither justice to the yarn or the pattern...the shawl is also in its sad preblocked state.

Just in case...

anybody is wondering where I have gone off to...I am not at home :o)

And won't be till the beginning of March! *yay*

I took along two knitting projects, one is already finished, the second one just as good as and so I went out and bought some green yarn I hope I will not find hideous too soon and started knitting an afghan which will take AGES!

This is all.

Well...

I have been doing some knitting.

Pictures as soon as the thing is finished! (Hopefully tomorrow!)

Then I spent some money on a yarn winder and a swift and I do wish for the swift to arrive tomorrow so I can begin to wind my lovely, lovely Evilla and Wollmeise lace yarns into workable cakes!

I also started to sew my costume project (supposed to be finished by April).

Life goes swimmingly!

And when she was good...

Today, I got up early and... really cleaned the flat. All is done now except the windows.
That I will leave for my boyfriend who managed to have an appointment today. Why am I not surprised?

Still kickin'

I am still alive and now I will have time to do a little living!
