I have disappeared here for a while,  I've spent a few days in Spain but I'm here again, come  back to the autumn Munich and come back to the cardigans and socks..

A day before leaving , came home a lovely surprise package from my dear Vibeke, she has knitted a lovely alpaca shawl for me, oh my god, I feel so lucky, it's perfect! including another small details, and a delicious tea.

I found another unexpected package in the mailbox when I arrived. Ann-Kathrin sent me all those little balls of wool for my blanket's project

and thoroughly explained what she has done with each wool ball. Thanks for contributing to my little project. it's magic!

That's my new oxalis triangularis, after Claudia sent me a small stems, I found it at flower shop, these strange things happen!

I've just finished a pair of socks and almost done my violet shawl.

update

 I've decided to knit a blanket only using scraps of projects that I done, It is designed with wool socks, but obviously I've only knit two socks in my life so anything works and I'm not going to buy wool for that project. But my scraps are  limited....

...if there if someone who would like to donate some scraps of yarn for my blanket I would be very happy that the blanket was composed of bits of you, of your knit projects. I only need just a tiny ball for the square.. so if you want to join please sent me an email (aldiladeglispecchi@yahoo.es)  and I'll give my address.

this is what I'm currently working:

A new pair of socks using this recipe, is a very easy pattern for beginners. I can't stop knitting socks!!

A shawl with malabrigo lace color violeta. I have elongated central pattern because I like long shawls that surround my neck.  It's a free pattern.

And the last project on my needles is a new blanket, inspiring me in this and the concept * I've decided to knit a blanket only using scraps of projects that I done, It is designed with wool socks, but obviously I've only knit two socks in my life so anything works and I'm not going to buy wool for that project.

Hi!!
How beautiful! we are having a beautiful summer days. The weekend we went for a walk with the bike and I picked some flowers.
I put to dried one hydrangea flower.
Fresh red bio fruits from the market, this morning.
I sewed a shirt, the fabric is great, super thin and light. Lately I don't have any sewing project, I prefer to spend time with my needles.

This week I have seen the third season of this.

No summer weather and no bare foot but I'm happy to use my knitted socks.

This week...

I've started a new summer pullover using a cotton yarn that I bought for another sweater but it turned out to be a disaster.
Happy because my collection of dishes from the flea market is growing.
I watched this and this series.
I'm reading this.
Rediscovering ginger for teas and cooking.
I've bought something here for my mum's birthday!
Happy because finally I found a sunscreen face cream, antispot.
My craspedia is growing hurray!!
Waiting for snail mails :))

Happy week
xxxx

My first knitted socks.
And another ones..probably a new addiction...
Soft fabric and wool for future projects,  one week more and I'll have a 2 pause weeks vacations, I want to knit a lot,  I feel so inspired!
In love with this pullover, I hope they public the pattern :)) because it's in my list!!
Waiting for my craspedia begins to grow. I would love to have these two plants, oxalis triangular 
and pilea baby, anyone know where I can get them? or someone offers to send me a stalk, I promise to reward :))
Waiting for the weekend for more flea markets!!


Have a happy weekend my sweet readers!

No golden light and no summer temperatures today but well this week has been so good...  On Saturday we went to a second hand shop and we bought two BICYCLES, are so old and vintage and I really like the design, immediately I bought a basket .. :)) So this week,  no train or transport public, only with my new-old bike.
I feel very lucky. It is a special feeling, a kind of freedom. I find it very rare, in my region is unthinkable (are cities with hills and slopes) and cars and walkers are scared to see a bike.
I picked up the socks,  I'm going to dedicate myself to them today while a cake is baking. I've ordered a socks's book and I have a good sock's stash, but meanwhile I manage to finish the more easier...(no promises)
Happy weekend everyone!!

 I love that skirt, you're so talented V!
