The Reyna Shawl off the needles

Finally finished this shawl that towards the end really gave me big problems which ended up making this shawl to be a month late. Never mind, It's done and I love it. I bought the yarn in Dublin this year in February. It's Hedgehog Fibres Sock and the colourway is Spell. I love the colour of this yarn but I don't like the yarn. It's splitting a lot and it's very squeaky. It feels like you are knitting with cotton and not wool, and it is 90% Merino and 10% Nylon. And when I was soaking it for the blocking it bled like mad. :( So I will not buy any more of this yarn and I have two other colours in my stash of this one, so I will use them but not buy any new ones unless they are sorting this out.

 

Off the needles today - Pyttipanna shawl No. 14

It's been a while since I knitted this shawl and this is the first one for this year. I felt I needed a autumn shawl so I knitted this one again for the 14th time.

The ReMusiK tablerunner is ready!

My husband asked me to crochet a tablerunner for the shop so I did this one and it’s ready. He was really pleased over it.

 

Det har varit tyst från mig länge nu....

Orsaken till att det har varit tyst här länge beror på att programmet Live Writer som jag använder för att skriva alla mina bloggar från en plats har slutat supporta Blogspots och då har det blivit att jag har bara bloggat på en eller två av alla mina bloggar då de fortfarande fungerade och var på WordPress. Men nu har det kommit info om att en annan version av programmet fixar detta problem, nämligen Open Live Writer.

Så nu håller jag på att installera och importera bloggarna till programmet och jag hoppas att det kommer att funka efter det.
