Kasvab/It is growing

Kasvab jõudsalt.
It is growing steadily.

Alustasin just 5-ndat tokki. On vaja kududa veel pikkusesse. Kindlasti tuleb varrukate viimistlus, võimalik, et isegi väiksed varrukad. Mulle meeldib selline konstruktsioon ja võiks veel midagi kududa mõnest muust lõngast. Loodetavasti saan kolmapäeval tunnis valmistoppi näidata.
I've just started the 5th ball of yarn. I have to work more downwards. For sure, there will be finishing of the sleeves and maybe short sleeves. I like this construction and could knit something similar from another yarn. Hopefully, I will be able to show the finished top in my class on Wednesday.

Ühe konstruktsiooni modifikatsioon/A modification of a construction

Sellest räägin rohkem tunnis. 17. veebruaril kl 17.30 räägin Domus Linum poes kimonost ja selle erijuhtumitest.
I will talk more about it in my class. I will talk about kimono and its particular cases on 17 February at 5.30 p.m. at Domus Linum store.

See on selline juhtum, et nn pahupool on ka ilus. Otsustasin, et vahelduse mõttes olgu see nüüd õige pool.
It is precisely the case when so-called wrong side is beautiful, too. I decided that wrong side should be assigned as right side just for a change.

Küljel hakkab jooksma parempidiste silmsute riba. Ja alumisel pildil on kimono lühikese varruka kahandused.
There is a stripe of stockinette on the side. And the bottom picture shows decreases of a short kimono sleeve.

Rätiku pilte/Pictures of the shawl

Rätik on valmis, pestud, pingutatud ja pildistatud. Helin, tänan poseerimise eest!
The shawl is finished, washed, blocked and photographed. Helin, thanks for modelling!

Huvitaav lõng/Interesting yarn

Koon rätikut (tuleb lihtne klassikaline kolmnurkne rätik). Alles siis, kui on kootud hulk maad, saab aru, et lõng on träpsuline ja ühtlasi värviüleminekutega. Raasiku vabrikul on nimelt uus sari, kus koos pole kontrastsed värvid, vaid üleminekud on õrnad ja üldmulje on pigem tviidjas. Üleminekuid on natuke näha n-ö tabletis, tviidjas olek paistab proovilapil.
I am knitting a shawl (it will be a simple classical triangular shawl). Only after having knitted quite a bit one realizes that the yarn is a kind of melange and has a bit of variegation at the same time. The factory in Raasiku has a new series where the colours in the skein are not contrasting and transitions are smooth and the general impression is tweedy. Transitions are slightly visible in the yarn cakes and the tweediness appears on the swatch.

 

Täna tahtsin pildistada ja siis avastasin, et üleminekud on täiesti nähtavad. Siin on rätiku algus.
Today I wanted to take pictures and then discovered that the transitions are rather distinct. Here is the beginning of the shawl.

Ja siin on tipp.
And here is the tip.

Ilmsel saan valmis üsna varsti.
Probably I will be able to finish it quite soon.

Sviiter/The sweater

Lõpuks sviitri pilte. Külli, suur tänu! Sviiter on tõesti soe.
Finally, some sweater pictures. Külli, many thanks! The sweater is really warm.

Näitus "Moel on kaks hinge"/Exhibition "Fashion has two souls"

Sain kutse Vilve Undi näituse "Moel on kaks hinge" avamisele. Käisin eile vaatamas.
I got an invitation to Vilve Unt's exhibition "Fashion has two souls".

Vilve enda sõnul tähendavad need kaks hinge emotsionaalsust ja ratsionaalsust. Mulle meeldib tema stiil, ta on teinud erinevaid asju, ka kudumeid. Rahvast oli palju, nii et päris raske oli pildistada.
According to Vilve, these two souls mean emotions and rationality. I like her style, she has designed many different garments, including knitwear. It was a rather crowded event, so it was difficult to take pictures.

 

 

 

 

 

Kõik, mida nägin, oli üsna vaimustav, paneb mõtted tööle. Ka publik, kes taolistel üritustel käib, on meeldiv. Siin mina mõne rõivakomplekti taustal...
Everything I saw was rather inspiring, it puts your mind at work. Also the audience who usually comes to such events was pleasant. Here is me with some garments in the backround...

... ja siis koos tuleva moedisaineri Mariliis Niinega (kavatseme lahkuda, kuid jutt ei taha lõppeda).

... and then together with a future fashion designer Mariliis Niine (we are about to leave but the conversation does not want to finish).

Peaaegu/Almost

Sviiter on peaaegu valmis. Nüüd on vaja pisut alla kududa. Mõlemad varrukad on olemas, kaelus viimistletud.
The sweater is almost finished. I only have to knit downwards a little bit. Both sleeves are complete and the neck opening has a finishing.

 

 

Teisel pildil on näha, et kaelus läheb keerdu. Aga kui selga panna, siis seda probleemi ei ole. Kudusin maha lõdvalt, sellepärast ongi keerdus, kui pole pingul.
The second picture shows that the neck opening curls. But when I put on the sweater, there is no such problem. I bound off softly and this is why you see it curling, when it is not stretched.
