E intanto, la neve... / And meanwhile, the snow...

E intanto la neve si sta avvicinando...

And meanwhile the snow is getting nearer and nearer...

 
E l'emozione di rivederla spolverare le cime dei miei monti è niente rispetto al colpo di vedere nelle notizie alcuni luoghi tanto amati, i miei lontani e vicini posti del cuore, colpiti da quell'acqua che oltre queste montagne non gela, ma si rovescia violenta... 
E in un attimo cambia tutto...
 
And the emotion that I get seeing it on the top of my mountains is nothing compared to the feeling I got when I saw the news about some of my beloved places, places of the heart that are afar and yet so near, so hardly hit by that very same water that beyond these mountains doesn't freeze, but just violently pours down... 
And all of a sudden, everything changes...

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...
