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...

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. Might sound strange, but when I first learnt English I felt such a love for the language, as if I had found something I lost once again... my love hasn't diminished through the years, and I know I'm not perfect writing and speaking it, but words flow much more easily in English, I have much more fun when I use it, so... tough decision? 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.
