Uusi lõngu/New yarns

Kunagi sain Ravelrys tuttavaks Aljonaga. Ta elab Valgevenes ja koob üsna produktiivselt. Ta on korduvalt testinud minu õpetusi, eriti meeldib talle kududa rätikuid ja salle. Nüüd on  Tallinnas kaks toredat noort daami, tema sõbrad. Ta saatis mulle nendega  lõngu kingituseks. Selliseid värve ei oska ma korralikult pildistada. Must ja bordoo on mohäär, rohekas-hall on tegelikult tumedam ja punane on punasem (selline metsmarja punane). Kaks viimast on pitsilõngad. Suur tänu, Aljona!
Some time ago I got acquaitnetd with Alyona on Ravelry. She lives in Belarus and is a prolific knitter. She has repeatedly tested my patterns and she is especially fond of knitting shawls and scarves. Now two charming young ladies, her friends, came to visit Tallinn. She sent with them some yarns as a gift for me. I am unable to capture such colours. Black and purple are mohairs, the greenish-grey yarn is darker in reality and the red one is more red (a kind of forest berry red). The two latter yarns are lace yarns. Many thanks, Alyona!

Tütre rätik edeneb. Koon juba äärepitsi. See tuleb suhteliselt võrguline.
The daughters shawl is progressing. I am knitting the border lace now. It will be somewhat net-like.
