Vi piace il viola? / Do you like purple?

Un gomitolo di un bel viola brillante, unico del suo colore in mezzo a tutti gli altri, ha catturato la mia attenzione. L'ho portato a casa e nel giro di poco l'ho trasformato in questo cappellino dal sapore vintage, per me decisamente inusuale... guardandolo infatti continuo a pensare ai copricapo che andavano per la maggiore tra gli anni 20 e 30 del secolo scorso... D'altra parte, ultimamente mi sto dedicando a diverse cose nuove, perciò forse non dovrei stupirmi...
Voi cosa ne dite del risultato?

A nice bright purple ball, the only one of this colour amid all the others, caught my eye. I brought it home with me and in a short time I made it into this kind of vintage hat, which is pretty unusual for me... looking at it though I can't help but think of the hats they used to wear back in the 1920s and 1930s... After all, I've been experimenting new things a lot, lately, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised...
Anyway, what do you think about it?

  1. Il colore è davvero primaverile, come il cappellino, adatto a proteggere dal sole e dal vento, ricorda molto i modelli vintage . Io non uso i cappelli, ma mi piace tanto vederli indossati !

  5. A me il viola non piace,ma il cappellino sì.Un tempo non li usavo,ora sempre:d'inverno quelli di lana che mi riparano dal freddo e mi risparmiano un sacco di magagne(anche perchè io vado spesso in bici e l'aria gelida punge!) e d'estate per riparami dal sole.Questo è un bel modello:semplice e mettibile senza problemi!

Bye, Blogger

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.

Wishes and shawls / "Vorrei" e scialli

I can't believe how long it's been since my last post. I'd like to have something more to say, or better yet, I'd like to have more time to think about what to write and really write it down. But unfortunately, I don't. I'm sorry my blog isn't more inspirational, as many of yours are, I wish it was. It's just one of those moments, you know... I'm so busy with too many things. So, want to know what I'm up to these days? Well, there you go: I enjoy long walks in the woods together with my boyfriend every weekend (we're so lucky, I know, and I'm oh so thankful!). I crochet (and knit a bit) every time I can, though not as much as I wish. I try and take good care of my plants and especially my beloved cacti, which continue to grow in number and are preparing to bloom, some of them for the first time, and that's exciting. I also purchased some new hooks and knitting needles, and I'd like to tell you about them in the future, becaus...

For Ireland, and Ireland only...

... The harp, the Shamrock,  Green, white and gold... I almost never write about my love for Celtic culture, I don't really know why; but it's somethind deep rooted in my spirit, a connection that only grows stronger as years go by.  I had the chance to write my bachelor's degree thesis about W. B. Yeats and the Celtic elements within the folk traditions of Éire, a few years back, and thanks to this I got to know Irish culture much better than I did, though I still haven't had the occasion to visit the place. Needless to say, I love everything related: mythology, folklore, traditions... Plus, I absolutely love green, so: a few years later, here's my tiny tribute to the Emerald Isle of Éire, or Ireland, if you wish. : ) What do you think? I know it's simple looking (and simple to make, in fact), but I really like the way it turned out, and I'm quite proud of my shamrocks all around... Would you like to wear your own Irish-related shaw...
