Serenità spinosa / Thorny serenity

Manco da tanto all'appuntamento del venerdì con Laura e le altre... ma stasera ci sono, per condividere con voi un piccolo momento di serenità spinosa... : )
Un ricordo di uno dei rari giorni di sole di questa settimana, un fiore dalle sfumature delicate che è riuscito ad aprirsi solo per poche ore... la magia di queste piantine mi incanta sempre...

I've been missing various Fridays with Laura and the other girls... but this evening I'm here to share with you all a little moment of thorny serenity... : )
A memory from one of the rare days of sunshine that we had this week, a delicate flower that's been able to fully bloom for just a few hours... these little plant's magic always enchants me...

    Bellissimo. Ne ho una anche io e quando fiorisce è una gioia, anche se dura poco.
    Buona giornata.

    What a wonderful blossom! It's always fascinating how such beauties are coming out of a simple prickly thing, isn't it :D. Thanks for sharing and have a great day! Greetings, Nata

December / Dicembre

Just a quick post to wish you all a merry month of December, full of coziness and warm thoughts while waiting for Yule (or Xmas, or however you like to call this happy holiday! : )). As some of you may have noticed there have been changes in my blog, first of all my name: yes, I'm called Valentina. Melatia was just a username I chose for the web, but in the end I grew tired of it and decided to use my real name. So, not much of a change, is it? Another thing, from now on I'll write in English first and then in Italian.

Not really, and I'm happy with it! : ) Talking 'bout creative stuff, I'm... busy, to say the least. ...

Tunisian crochet hooks - Pt. 4 / Uncinetti tunisini - Parte 4

In 3 past posts I talked about a variety of Tunisian crochet hooks ( part 1 , part 2 , part 3 ), sharing my experiences and opinions with you all. In this post I'm gonna write a very specific kind: BIG hooks. Bulky and super bulky yarns are a reality, these days . If you like these kinds of yarns, you might seriously consider trying them with Tunisian crochet. Especially if you use simple stitches, like Tunisian simple stitch or Tunisian knit stitch, this technique really makes the texture of both stitch's and fabric stand out . I'm not a sucker for gigantic yarns and hooks, normally, but I do think that, a few times a year,  crocheting with big hooks is lots of fun . Question is, where to find those really big Tunisian hooks? Denise sets go up to 15 mm hooks , but what if we want even bigger ones? Well, not to worry: ChiaoGoo makes Tunisian hooks with flexible cords up to 25 mm ! ChiaoGoo's are bamboo hooks, wonderfully smooth, with a nicely pointed tip , and...

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.
