Anyway, my point being: Not much knitting done lately. But then, not much interest in doing anything, really. All the work is killing me at the moment. I just hope it gets easier when school starts and I actually have to spend time at the lectures as well. (On a side note, besides Anthropology, I'm studying Sami, Arabic and Swedish this fall... let's see how well those go together!)
At Ravelry I participated in the Kahelit-group's Challenge-themed swap, and apparently I was too much of a challenge to my partner as I never got anything from her. I just hope everything is well with her. :P
As a compensation for all my waiting in vain, some of the Kahelit-group members were true angels and sent me little packages instead. Have I ever told you how much I love those people? :D
Because my camera and I have a complicated love-hate relationship that is further complicated by our dependency on my (new) computer (that I still don't quite know how to use perfectly), I only got pictures of the first package. It included some lovely Drops Silke-Alpaca, a lovely wooden necklace in a small Marimekko pouch as well as a wonderful Wollmeise version of Herbivore. :D
In second "package" I got two patterns from my Ravelry wishlist: Andrea's Shawl and Verity. Thanks to TeijaS for those. :)
In my last package I got a pair of socks in Tico Tico (I've hardly taken them off since I got them!), a blue project bag that is already in use, lots and lots of chocolate in different dorms. Lovely stuff! That was from PäiviH.
Like I said, I really haven't had much time for any crafts lately as I've working a lot. However, this is what's on the needles at the moment, as so far I fall in love ever more deeply with every row. How could I not, as it combines a gift pattern and some gorgeous Malabrigo?
You'll see more about it when it's ready, I promise.
Huomisin just, että oho, tuli kirjoitettua englanniksi. Noh, kärsikää. :P Kuvat kertoo joka tapauksessa enemmän kuin tuhat sanaa;. Pus pus.
