Rainbow umbrella




Tykkään sekä virkata, että neuloa yhtäpaljon. Ja koska en osannut päättää kumpaa halauisin tehdä, päätin tehdä molempia samaan työhön. Virkkasin Dropsin alpacasta ensin yläosan reikävirkkauksella. Kaavana käytin vanhaa paitaani, jotta saisin kaula-aukosta sopivan kokoisen. Kun yläosa oli valmis, siirsin silmukat alareunasta neulekoneelle ja neuloin sileää neuletta. Kun oli mennyt yksi kerä sekä etu- että takakappaleeseen, otin silmukat taas puikoille ja neuloin käsin helmaa reikäneuletta. Silmukoita oli siis samanverran koneessa, että puikoilla, mutta käsin neulottaessa en saanut yhtä tiukkaa (enkä sileää ;P) kuin koneella, joten helmasta tuli ihanan kellomainen. Aluksi ajattelin, että paidasta tuli aivan liian lyhyt, mutta päällä topin kanssa se osoittautui aivan ihanaksi ja juuri oikean mittaiseksi. Kesäneule parhaimmillaan.

1.



Kirjoitetaanpas välillä Suomeksi.:) Otin neulekoneeni esille taas pitkästä aikaa. Aluksi on hyvä harjoitella jotain helppoa, joten neuloin vauvan kokoisen peiton meleeratun harmaasta ja valkoisesta villalangasta. Reunaan virkkasin valkoista pitsiä. Niin kiva tästä tuli, että kävin ostamassa langat jo kahteen seuraavaankin peittoon.

Spring


Butterflies flew in my yellow spring knit. I took the dimensions from magazine of 70s. When I knitted this jacket I feared all time that it would not fit on me, because the average people in the 70s were little smaller than people now a days. In the end this yellow jacket was perfect to me. Welcome summer, I´m ready.

Owl bride






-One lonely owl bride
waiting here over the night.
She wonders...Where is the groom?
      Waiting...
                          and waiting more.

Today, you may see the ghostly bride
waiting in a house and looking out!?- 


I have knitted a simple shaped dress. You can use this  kind of dress anywhere. I like bright colors, so it's difficult to me to knit something with natural colors. But now, when the dress is ready, I like these natural colors very much.

Doll Daisy


At one evening I took a red yarn in my hand and I felt like doing some crochet work. But what kind of crochet?!..hmm..maybe something little and fast, but still something beatiful. Then I recalled that when I was a child everybody had dresses with collar. So I did a crochet lace collar. Now I only need new dresses which goes together with my new collar. Simple, one evening project.

Mushroom girl






- Sometimes I feel like I have grown as a part of the nature. I would be one with trees, moss, flowers and mushrooms. It is like I could understand all whispers and silence of the forest. I can feel the aegis as a home the forest holds for its dwellers. There I long to create a burrow of my own. Sleep over the mossy bed, looking upon the clouds and just blend in with everything. How soft and beautiful that place would be… -

I love green color. Exacly this tone of green. I like mixing and matching different color contrasts together. So I did a red mushroom pocket. I like this kind mixture of tunic and dress in the shape of the knitting.You can simple finish your looks with casual leggings and t-shirt.

Bambi




-Though the ground feels cold, I am walking with bare feet. Hay had grown at the shoulders of the road. The mist has fallen over the hay straws, making them shimmer under the sunshine, like a soft and gentle blanket, protecting the last bit of the remaining hay before the frost.And yet I feel no cold. Sound of rustle is echoing behind the woods of the forest. I stop and listen. Soon a tender and beautiful roe deer reveals himself. We look upon each other as we both know how beautiful this encounter is. With a blink of an eye it gracefully lopes back in aegis of the forest. -


Welcome to my blog. I love to knit and to design knits and I hope you enjoy your stay here.
I like also other art and fantasy and I try to present my design, story and photos  in intresting way and maybe it can inspire you.

My first knitting here is bambi shirt. I like the color pink and so bambi took new coloring in my mind. This shirt is easy to knit if you can handle intarsia knitting technique. The yarn I used, was 
Heritage cascade yarn which is very soft and lovely to knit.
