I just wanted to... / Volevo solo...

I just wanted to wish you all a wonderful new week! 
I know I haven't updated my blog lately, not that I haven't been working, on the contrary! But outside is often overcast and I can't get decent pictures of my items... sooner or later I will! : )

In the meantime, here's a pic of one of my beloved mountains, maybe my most loved one, for you!

Volevo solo augurarvi una stupenda nuova settimana!
So che non ho più aggiornato il blog, non che non abbia lavorato, al contrario! Ma fuori è quasi sempre buio e non riesco a scattare foto decenti... prima o poi ce la farò! : )

Nel frattempo, per voi una foto di una delle mie amate montagne, forse la mia preferita in assoluto!

  3. Una foto stupenda, Valentina, complimenti!
    Carissima, mi devo scusare mille volte e più, poiché, maldestramente, ho cancellato il tuo commento sul mio ultimo post, quello di Scrooge: un errore di manovra e via tutto, aihmè:(
    Sul mio blog ho scritto un commento di scusa e rammarico e desideravo esprimere la stessa cosa anche qui da te!
    Scusa ancora e grazie per le tue visite:)

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.

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...
