FOs

Sauna Socks are finished!

Sauna socks made with orange Novita Nalle yarn

Amazing, there is an FO ready in my house!

 

Celebration reasons:
1) I made a pair of socks, after such a pause, and they have a pattern even!
2) I am blogging about them!

 

It may not seem like much to anyone, but it does symbolize something to me, this FO and the fact that I am blogging about them. It means knitting is not completely lost to me, nor is knit blogging. I still want to create with my hands and share what I've done with like-minded people and maybe even be of some help for someone.

Hot hot water bottle cozy

hot water bottle cozy

Years ago I bought two hot water bottles and knit two cozies for them. Later on I gave one of them to my niece, and we lived for many years with just one. This winter I decided we do need two again, so I bought one and got to knitting. I chose something fom my stash (as always currently), and that's Traveller by Dragonfly Fibers in color Bad Moon Rising.

My Säde scarf looks like snow in the sun

Säde scarf

I know, I can't believe it either, but I have a FO. Actually I have a few, but I'll show you this one first. It's a scarf which I call the Säde scarf, as I knit it from the Säde yarn from Novita, a Finnish yarn brand. It's a really pretty mixed fiber yarn with sequins in it -My sister gave me two balls of it back in 2013.

Just another pair of socks for charity

I'm still here, knitting and posting in slow motion it seems.

 

It's been a busy fall until now and it's about to get even busier. I'm -among other things- taking a sewing course at the moment! So perhaps there'll be some sewing content up soon. Also my Mum was visiting me a few weeks back and we had a blast. I'll try to get a few pics up on what we did (and the gorgeous socks she knit in one week!)

Kalajoki socks

Kalajoki socks

Seems like the summer of 2013 is a summer of socks for me. No, I'm not participating in any KAL, but it seems socks are all I knit.

 

This pair of gorgeously turqoise socks was finished a while back. Let me tell you more:

 

The pattern is called Kalajoki, which translates to "Fish River", and it is indeed a river in Western Finland. It's very "curvy", so the socks sport a similar, very cleverly made and stunning looking, pattern.
