Idunn finished

Yes, I finished Idunn this week and I am happy with it! It has a lovely border and is knitted with short rows. Fun to do and although it looks a bit complicated, it really is a no brainer once the border is done.

I can show a little progress on Shadow too, but I am not sure whether I like it or not. some parts are a bit airy and I didn't expect that. I give it a chance and will decide later. 

And there is a new project coming. I will follow a workshop for the start of Sari by Kieran Foley. Just look at these lovely colours I've chosen! Handdyed by Loret Karman.

Spring arrived!

Every year I am happy when winter is over and spring arrives. This year we didn't have much snow and cold, but we did have dark days and I hate getting up when it is still dark. Since december last year I follow a course in Utrecht (once a week) and I have to travel there by train. At 06.00 a.m. I get up and I just hated it, being dark and cold. Yesterday it was't dark anymore and looking out of the window I saw the sun over the frozen fields.
In our garden our little tree is showing signs of spring too :)

I knitted not as much as I wanted, because I was away the whole weekend. But Idunn and And It Wasn't Even My Birthday are showing some progress. I didn't take a picture of the first one, but here is And It Wasn't ...

And I couldn't help myself starting a new project. Shadow. Here are the first needles. They look a bit messy, but it will be okay in the end.
