Highlander IV

Pattern: Scottische highlander kilt hose (or something like it, I don't feel like going to my bookshelf in this freezing coldness)
Yarn: Schoeller-Stahl Fortissima socka, approximately 180 grams in casual grey
Other: Like 200 000 stitches in them, they are 20 cm longer in the leg than in the book "Folk socks"

Nämä ovat pitkään kulkeneet nimellä Highlander muistiinpanoissani. Onkin nyt sellainen olo että "There can be only one ... pair", ei heti tee mieli neuloa toisia. Olenkin jo houkutellut näiden vastaanottajaa poseeraamaan kiltissä miekkoineen kunhan on lämpimämpää.

These have been called "Highlanders" quite a while in my notes. I'm right now feeling very much like "There can be only one ... pair" about them. I don't feel like knitting another pair, these took almost a year to complete. I've tried to make the recipient to pose with these in kilt and holding a sword at some warmer time in the future.


Ostin myös pienen Marimekon kukkaron puhelimelleni, tuohon mahtuu mukaan ne kuulokkeetkin, jotka eivät siihen neulomaani pussukkaan mahdu. Näkee sitten kummasta pidän enemmän, pari päivää neulottu pussukka on jo palvellut ihan hyvin.

I also got this little Marimekko purse for my phone, the knitted bag I made for it doesn't hold the earphones. I'll see which one I like better, I've used the knitted one a few days already.
