Vacanza / Holiday

Ebbene sì, dopo tanti mesi riesco a concedermi una vacanza. Ho un sacco di progetti in mente e ho bisogno di tempo per svilupparli al meglio, perciò oggi parto per passerò una quindicina di giorni in uno dei miei luoghi dell'anima, tanto diverso e per certi versi tanto simile al posto in cui vivo... 
Avrò accesso limitato alla rete perciò non riuscirò a venirvi a trovare e a lasciare commenti sui vostri post, e per questo mi scuso in anticipo, ma prometto che recupererò appena rientrata!! Potrò comunque a controllare le mail, perciò se vorrete contattarmi scrivetemi e vi risponderò entro 24-48 ore.
Auguro a tutte voi due splendide settimane creative, in attesa di risentirci con tante novità!

Yeah, after many months I'm finally allowing myself to go on a holiday. I've got lots of projects in my mind and I need time to develop them the best I can, so I'm leaving today to spend a couple of weeks in one of my soul's places, so different and somehow so similar to where I live... 
I'm going to have limited access to the web, so I won't be able to visit your blogs and to comment on your posts, I apologize, but I'll catch up as soon as I'm back, I promise!! I'll be able to check the e-mails anyway, so if you want to contact me write me all the same, you'll get an answer within 24-48 hours.
I wish you all two wonderful creative weeks, I'll be back with lots of news!

Finished! / Finito!

Hello ladies! How was your weekend? Hope it all goes well! I'm here to show my finally finished baby cardigan, remember ? I've already told you about the wool I used in my latest post, so I won't bore you any longer - just a quick note: if you happen to find it and you've got some knitting baby project in mind definitely try it out! It's thin but grows quickly, it's incredibly soft and it took me less than 100 g on 3.5 mm needles to finish this cardigan, which should fit a 6 months old. Ciao a tutte! Com'è andato il fine settimana? Spero tutto bene! Sono qui per mostrarvi il golfino di cui vi avevo parlato, vi ricordate ? Vi ho già parlato nello scorso post della lana che ho usato, quindi non vi annoierò oltre - solo un appunto veloce: se vi capita di trovarla e avete in mente di sferruzzare qualcosa per un bimbo provatela! E' sottile ma cresce in fretta, è incredibilmente morbida, e mi sono bastati meno di 100 g (su ferri da 3.5 mm) per que

I'll write on my  WordPress blog only, from now on, so if you want to follow me you'll find me there. I won't delete this blog, as I'm attached to it and it reminds me of the road I travelled so far, but at least for now I won't update it anymore.

And here's the Dragon! / Ecco il Drago!

Remember the Dragon Tail scarf/shawl I began some time ago? Well, last week I managed to finish it, and I'm oh so proud of it. Not only it's my first Tunisian crochet project, but it also turned out great, big and cosy and oh so soft (this thanks to the lovely yarn Géraldine sent me, Phil Bambou Laine by Phildar). It is 2 m long from tip to tip and 45 cm wide by the last scale, and the last row counts 110 stitches, which are quite a lot... : ) As I already wrote I strongly recommend this if you want to try Tunisian crochet, it's easy, good fun and you get a nice original item to wear. You might find this tutorial by Julia Marquardt helpful, but if you want to get one that's exactly like mine you have to change the pattern a little bit: I followed the instructions by a great designer, MariaGrazia Berno , who modified it a bit in order to obtain a scarf/shawl that curls up more. Her pattern says to increase of two stitches at the end of every row, just before the se
