Ok, the shawl for the Sammakkoprinssi-KAL is finished. It didn't become the gorgeous triangular shawl I was hoping for - see, the YO holes not only make the shawl wider, but also taller. Only in the middle, mind you. So it's not so much triangular as it is a square.

It does work as a shawl, but better it warms nicely as a laphgan / throw when sitting in our cold living room.

Today is the Naked CSS 08 day. It’s the day you turn off your websites CSS and show the plain output of your System. I hope you don’t mind.

Some time ago I asked you, what should I do with the ugly yarn I had - a weird mixture of different fibres, and of a funny colour of blue-hued ice.  I got some great suggestions, but I decided to take the easy way out, and just start a shawl with YO increases around the middle stitch, with big size 15mm needles. Here's the beginning.

Aloitin viimein huivin Sammakkoprinssi / Hirviöstä kaunittareksi - KALiin. Toistaikseksi näyttää aika kivalta!

I love cats. I really do, but I don't have one - and propably won't for a while, due to my life situation. A while back my need for a cat became too big, and I started to knit a cat. Today I finished him.

Last year there were big riots in Burma, like in Tibet now, the Blogsphere created a project called "Free Burma". Since then nearly no blogger wrote about Burma and what's happening there.
