Yippee! Finally! It was hard to get any pictures of this slipover, because Jussi was so excited that he couldn't stay still.. :D
Pattern: Miehen neulottu palmikkoslipoveri
Needles: 3½ mm and 4 m
For: My husband
Consumption: 350 g
SPOILER ALERT!
I've finished the first Mystery Sock:
And, my "pappatakki" is doing well. Only half a sleeve to go!
My ClusterMap! There's like 30 clursters there, there's something wrong! I don't like this...
I've been knitting, as usual. A vest for my husband will soon be finished. I'm also knitting a "pappatakki" for myself. Red Novita Isoveli and 6 mm needles = fast.
I bought only 3 skeins! So no panic.
teetee Pallas: I'm making a pair of socks for my Mom :)
Renia Hand-dye Effect: This clearly wants to become a scarf.
Mmm...
Phew. We have now our fall vacation, and I now have one week to rest... (=knit)
This one's a project that I started in summer, for Jussi. Yesterday I started to knit it again, let's see if I can finish it before I go to my parents' in Thursday...
SPOILER ALERT for TTL Mystery Sock '09 knitters...
I've also finished the clues 2 and 3:
But guess what irritates me, a lot. Remember the April Shrug I knitted, the green one? It was my own pattern, I found the lace pattern from a pattern book from the early 80's. And tadah, in Novita's newest issue there's almost exactly the same lace pattern. Sigh.
Our doggy, Retu, had to be put away yesterday. I really miss him... He was our first dog, and he lived with us for 9 years. Retu was 10 years old already, but it still hurts.
Wow, that was fast! I now have about 150 cm's of soft 65% mohair warming my neck. Guess what it is?
Pattern: Feather and Fan Scarf (@ravelry)
Needles: 6 mm
Yarn: Gjestal Topp Mohair
Consumption: 100 g
Yesterday I knitted about 40-50 cm of this scarf, Feather and Fan Scarf (@ravelry). No photo, sorry, but I must say this. The scarf has been a wip for ages (as many of my projects usually are). "Well, I can aswell try to knit this while I read." And tadah! In no time the lenght of it doubled. Wow.
I think that I'll finish it soon. Hopefully. :)
Phew! Now I ran out of easily knitted project (perfect for lessons).

Knitty-lovers, you may want to check this out: Clic! Yummy. :)
I almost finished the Saltkråkan-socks yesterday, but my wrist didn't agree with me. I now have to have one day without knitting (ouch) so that my left wrist gets better. Some might say that I've knitted too much. How come?
Yesterday I knitted like a maniac, but it was worth it. I made 1,5 socks in one day (the first half was done ages a go, and this project was hibernating). But now, as the days get colder and colder, I had to finish these. I don't want my husband's toes to freeze :P

I've also finished the clue 1, sock 2! So, this KAL's doing fine at the moment... :P
And! I almost forgot. I finished the first army sock. Jussi is so in love with it... :P
Mmm, finally! And for once I'm on time! The first clue was published in 1st October, and I found it the 2nd!
SPOILER ALERT! If you DON'T want to see the Mystery Sock before you have knitted it yourself, DON'T LOOK! ;)
By the way, I bought yarn yesterday. AGAIN. This time I want to knit a hoodie, and I needed to buy 750 g of Novita 7 Veljestä. And another skein of Novita Nalle aloevera + jojoba for this Mystery KAL. :)
