And, my "pappatakki" is doing well. Only half a sleeve to go!

Oh no

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.

Yarrrrrrn

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...

Yummy

Ulla. Click!

WIPs and a vacation

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.

Coat!

I finished it.

Sad news

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.

♥ Retu ♥

1999-2009

I'm now sewing a coat. Let's see if I can finish it for tomorrow...

FO: Feather and Fan Scarf

Wow, that was fast! I now have about 150 cm's of soft 65% mohair warming my neck. Guess what it is?

WIP: Feather and Fan Scarf

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. :)

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?

FO: Army socks (or FDFIOS)

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
