Ottobre / October

E' iniziato uno dei miei mesi preferiti dell'anno.
Le giornate si stanno visibilmente accorciando, le temperature scendono, le nebbie sottili abbracciano gli alberi e le loro foglie si colorano e volano accompagnate dai venti dell'autunno.
Per inaugurare al meglio questa bellissima stagione mi sono regalata uno scialle nelle sfumature che tra poco assumeranno le fronde intorno a me. Si tratta di un enorme granny triangle dotato di frange, morbidissimo e avvolgente.

One of my favourite months of the year has just begun.
The days are getting visibly shorter, temperatures lower, thin mists embrace the trees and the leaves get all coloured and fly away with the winds of Autumn.
To start this lovely season in the best way possible I crocheted myself this shawl, its shades being those of the foliage that will soon surround me. This shawl is in fact an enormous granny triangle with fringes, very soft and embracing.

 
Sarà perché amo i grannies in tutte le loro forme, sarà perché adoro l'autunno, fatto sta che non ho fatto in tempo a finirlo che già lo indossavo!
 
Maybe it's because I love all types of grannies, maybe it's because I adore Autumn, I had barely finished it and I was alreay wearing it! 
 
Vi lascio con questa prima opera autunnale e un caro saluto a tutte voi che mi leggete e commentate: domenica partirò per una vacanza lunghetta, quindi per un paio di settimane non passerò a trovarvi. 
 
Vi auguro un fantastico Ottobre, pieno di misteri da scorgere tra le nebbie... 
 
I'm leaving you with this first Autumnal item and a goodbye, my dear readers: I'm leaving Sunday for a pretty long holiday, so for a couple of weeks I won't visit your blogs.
 
I wish you all a lovely October, full of glimpses of mystery between the mists...
 
Per chi fosse interessato al prodotto: questo scialle l'ho realizzato per me, ma su richiesta è possibile averne uno del colore e della misura che preferite! Potete contattarmi tramite il blog o visitare il mio shop! ; )
 
For those who may be interested: I made this shawl for myself, but I can make others by request, so you can choose the colours and size you like best! You can contact me through my blog, or you can visit my shop! ; )

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.

Tunisian crochet hooks, pt. 1 / Uncinetti tunisini, parte 1

When it comes to Tunisian crochet, one of the first issues people face is: which hooks should I choose? I decided to write about my own experience in 2 or 3 posts, and hopefully help some of you. When I first wanted to try Tunisian crochet, I only had a couple of long hooks at home, and they were definitely too thin for a newbie, like 2,5 mm or such. So I headed to a local store and bought me a nice 5 mm one. It was the classic  long, straight aluminium hook with a plastic stopper at one end and a pretty rounded tip at the other end , branded Pony. I practiced a bit with it, and  I struggled because of the rounded tip . I didn't give up, though: I purchased some bigger sizes by the same brand, which were  double-ended and all plastic .  I couldn't use those to save my life . The yarn didn't glide on them, and using them hurt my wrist terribly. Silly newbie I was, I blamed it all on the technique itself and took a pause from it, even though I did enjoy it...

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...
