A package + feelings

Hi all
Today has been up and down, upset and grrrr day = many thought´s and feelings. That is not just for me but also for other´s sake. One good thing is that my "sake" has taken one more step forward but it goes slowly (see basic post from 2009-12-20 + here and there). I could say more now but I think that would not be soo good as it is an ongoing thing! Can say that I do not like people who lies, especially if they are lying to the goverment!

One good thing today that made it better was that I got a package in the mailbox (the snail mail) :-). It was from the dischcloth swap that StickaMera arranged. And I got my cloth today from "Urmodern" Eva. It was a nice knitted dischcloth in one of my favorite colours lime green. And she had also put in some other things like nice chocolate and a cappucccino bag that I´m actually taking right now + writing in the blog at the same time :-).

I´m also in my first knit-along, with Rachel´s Mystery Dishcloth knit along. But more on that + picture will come another day when I feel for writing a bit more.

take cara, say nice things to each other, be true to each other!

Nature

Hi all
Have been some day´s since I wrote anything. I kind off had no feeling to write, yea has been some bad mood day´s. Has been up, down, emptiness, down and so on. Miss the time that was a lot, good friends and all the special things that was too. Hopefully it will be better, or will it?

Yesterday I got my "friend" to knit a dishcloth to at StickaMeras "Dishcloth swap". So I took a break from my shawl "Gail" and is now doing a cloth with my design on to the "friend" I shall send it to. And in some days or so I will get one from someone that has knitted one to me, a bit exciting isen´t it? :-)

End with this strong quote, but I like it and it is true! Nature never fail you!

"Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature.
It will never fail you."
~Frank Lloyd Wright

say nice things to each other, say some words often that is enough to make the day!

Fun + hmmmm

Hi all

Well yesterday (wensday 28 april) it was fun :-). The whole day I was looking forward to the knitting café that should be at the library in town (Nora). So in the afternoon I took my bike and did go in, a bit rain it was but that didn´t matter then. I really wanted to go in :-). There I meet some nice people and a woman that has a yarn shop had taken some yarn with her, but I did not buy anything, weird!!!
And finally I meet again EmmaE and she had her daughter Signe with her. That was really good that she came because I had again got stuck in my "Gail" shawl. But she helped me and I in the end "got" it. So now everything seems to be OK and I´m now on the second repeat :-). Big thanks Emma!

Today on the other hand it´s :-( :-(. The weather is boring, grey and cold. Rain is hanging in the air and the stupid "road machine" has been here and scraped the road, yea we gravel road. That will make it grrrrrrr to bike for a couple of days. And on top of that i´m frezzing exactly as Sunny does, think actually I might do like her snuggle up in the kitchen sofa, have a look at the picture. She is cute isen´t she?by by for now

Hi all
I have recently started to knit discloths, sounds weird isen´t it :-) ? But it is not, these cloths is made in cotton, cotton/flax mix or a mix of cotton/bamboo. I have tried all mixes and they work well all of them :-). If you want something fast to knit, something to knit that you really don´t need to think much well then dishcloths is excellent :-)). Of course there is patters where you need to pay attensione!Yesterday evening, hmm probably night :-) I joined StickaMeras dishcloth swap. Sounds weird? Well you knit a cloth send it to someone, get a cloth back from someone else. It is fun and you can if you want put in small things in the package too, maybe some candy or other fun.

have a nice day all, say some nice words to each other!

Both nice and blahäää

Hi

On wensday this week (21 of april) I took me the time and went in to Örebro and the knitting café at Märtas cafe, the knit café was in co-operation with "Bilda". I felt I needed to get away from all a bit even if it was for just a couple of hours! It was really nice to meet some new knitting friends, they where really friendly and welcome me nicely :-). Most of them was also in the newly formed club Närkes Handaverk. In time I maybe join them and even go on some of their other activities.
Finally I can continue with my shawl "Gail", I got some good help :-) and now I don´t understand what wrong I did before!!! I will defenitely go in again at this knit café it was pleasant and the place in it´s self was really nice and I can recommend all to "go off" there regular coffea streets and go to this place instead. Took a few picture with my new mobile phone, they are not that super good but you can see a bit on what was going on and the cosy café.

Some knitting friends and a small view at the cosy café.


A bit of the table wit a mix of "goodies" :-) and my brown mottled yarn ball.

The rest of week have been up and down as usual! Today it started so nice with sun then it was just blahäää with grey weather and rain/snow/hail, that is not so fun for the soul when it have the "bad" days and missing all the good stuff that has been. I´m quite feed up with the weather right now and need to get away for a bit longer time. Hope that can be soon, really soon!

take care all
