How many knitters can YOU fit in a tiny living room?

Poor Roedel!

My poor car had to be taken to the garage by the ADAC and it looks like it might be more expensive to repair it than what it still is worth. Sigh! Not that I  n e e d  a car, but it is my first one.

Bei uns ums Eck.

Green Damson

Maybe not the best quality for the picture, but here is my finished Damson in action. I think the dark "border" of Hazelknits is not anything you would notice without being told.

A few WIPs and a FO

Bavaria 2

Die wunderbare Welt der Amelie?

Yes, another bookshop, why were you asking?

Verena

The new Verena (Winter 10) is out. However the preview this link is taking you to has saved you from the worst thing in the magazine: Merry Christmas is an intarsia sweater with lots of christmas motives. I thought those had died with the last century, but here is one raising it's ugly head. Otherwise there is some nice stuff in it as far as I could tell from the first flip through.

The second part of the Verena Socken um die Welt is also available and I am enjoying reading the "travel" descriptions, even though some of them have nothing to do with the socks depicted with them. I think I will knit the Nepal socks, maybe without the Ajour (Lace) at the top.

Stricktreff October 2010

I had a lot of fun, but was busy talking, eating and knitting, so only a few pictures.

Fall Knitty

The new Knitty is out and finally some sweaters rather than just accessoirs. Nice!

Visited a vernisage

On Friday I visited a vernisage in Bad Bellingen where we had gone for a long weekend. The quilts were wonderfully crafted, but it was very crowded during the vernisage.

2. German Ravelry Meeting - I am back

I made it back and the damage to my wallet was not too bad. I will try to upload photos tonight, yesterday when I got home MyGuy needed some attention.

I loved the classes and enjoyed spending time with my knitting cirlce ladies and hope we get to do it again next year.

We are going today, happy, happy, happy!

What I do for MyGuy

Last Friday there was a company run in our town and MyGuy has signed me up along with himself for participation. Mind neither of us is what you would call sporty, so we only walked one round, but at least we counted as active participants for his company. It was fun, though we did not get any sort of placement.

Weekend in Oeztal

The last weekend of August we spent in Austria in the Oeztal. Saturday the weather was not good, but we spent the days at the Therme and in the sauna, so enjoyed it despite the constant drizzle. On Sunday however it had cleared and we got a chance to revisit the Stuibenfall, Tirol's highest waterfall.
