Tomaatit kasvavat, mutta kovin hitaasti. Ne olisi tarkoitus viedä ensi viikonloppuna vanhempieni luo Espooseen kasvamaan takapihan kasvihuoneeseen. Toivottavasti jotain satoa tulee syksyyn mennessä, mutta vaikka ei tulisikaan, niin onpahan aina kokeiltu. Ensi vuonna voi sitten vaikka istuttaa siemenet siihen aikaan kun pussissa lukee...
The tomatoes are growing slowly. I'm planning on taking them to my parents' greenhouse on their backyard in the suburbs next week. I hope they'll grow quicly enough to yield some crops for me, but anyhow, I tried. Next year I'll plant them at the designated time ...

This is a bag in the making. I've already felted it in the washing machine. It is knit with untwisted yarn doubled. I'm thinking of making this into a pattern (with the finishing touches I'm planning to use on it) for a Finnish www-knitmagazine Ullaneule. Also painfully visible in the flap before felting is the different with my purling and knitting, I usually knit on smaller needles in propotion to the surface I desire, since it seems like my knit stitched don't get that much smaller but the purling gets prettier.

Mason-Dixon ahoy! I got the book, fell in love with the rags, tested the pattern, found the book good and planned to knit a blanket. The one on to moved to my friend's apartment and the one on bottom I kept myself. They are knit with Novita Suvi, unmercericed cotton and after washing them in 60 degrees (Celcius. I'm European.) they seem to work just fine.


It's hot, my love is out of town so the cat sleeps on my desk.

Siemenet kylvetään, ei istuteta. :P Minun ainokainen tomaatintaimeni on vielä paljon pienempi, varmaan alle 5cm, vaikka muistaakseni kylvin sen melkein ajoissa...Saa nähdä tuleeko tänä kesänä satoa ollenkaan, viime vuonna samasta lajikkeesta saatiin muutama pikkutomaatti.
Tuo kissa on niin suloinen! :o)
minun tomaatit työstävät jo satoa. pieniä vihreitä tomskuja havaittavissa!!!
Oh hey, there you are! I like the shaping on the flap of the bag. The picture is the version before felting, no? Glad to hear that you are having fun with Mason-Dixon Knitting. I made the hexagonal washcloth with the eyelets near the edge. Caution! There are errors in some of the patterns. The good news, though, is these errata are on line.
Yup, the bag in the picture is before felting. I'm planning to post pictures of it soon =).
