Reljeefsed sviitrid/Textured sweaters

Üks stiili alane tähelepanek: see pilt on võetud meie viimases tunnis, avastasin, et palmikuline kude sobib hästi kokku jaki sileda pinnaga. Praegu on päris külm ja hea oleks ehk kududa veel mõni selline sviiter. Külli, tänan pildistamast!
A stylistic observation: this picture is taken during our last knitting class and I realized that the cabled fabric of the sweater goes together with the smoth fabric of the jacket. It is rather cold now and it would be nice to make another sweater of this kind. Külli, thanks for taking the picture!

Jätkates reljeefsete sviitritega, näitan, mis on töös. Kahekordne pärlkude ehk kananahk, mitme lõnga segu. Kirjutan täpsemalt, kui sviiter on valmis.
Continuing the topic of textured sweaters, I am showing you this one under construction. Double moss stitch, a combination of several yarns. I will write more about it once the sweater is completed.

Mõlemad varrukad on valmis, on vaja alla kududa u 20-25 cm.
Both sleeves are finished and some 20-25 cm have to be added to the torso.

Tegemisi/What is going on

Sain valmis suvetopi (jah, lubatakse külma lausa -20, aga suvi tuleb kunagi). Väga lihtne, lõng on linase ja puuvillase segu. Paremad pildid kunagi hiljem.
I have finished a summer top (yes, I know the forcast is threatening with -20 degrees in the nearest future but summer will come one day). It is a very simple garment, the yarn is cotton-linen blend. Better pictures later.

Siin tundub topp lausa sinakas, aga tegelikult on must. Töötlesin pildi nii, et saaks näha triipe. Muidu päriselus on nad nähtavad ega kao mustal taustal ära.
In this picture the top appears quite bluish but it is black in reality. I tweaked the picture in order to make stripes visible. In reality the stripes are visible and don't disapper on the black background.

Väljas on tegelikult külm ja nüüd tundub, et vana mohäärirätik on üsna paras. Muidu kannan seda üsna harva, sest tundub hirmus soe.
It is quite cold outside and now I think that the old mohair shawl is quite handy. Otherwise I don't wear it often because it feels excessively warm.

Siin on üks vana pilt.
Here is an older picture.

Head 100-ndat sünnipäeva!/Happy 100th birthday!

Täna on Eesti Vabariigi aastapäev, palju õnne kõigile käsitöö tegijatele ja disaineritele!
Today is Estonia's Independence day and my best wishes to all crafters and designers!

Mul on ka üht-teist näidata, üks asi sai valmis ja teine alustatud, aga räägime sellest järgmine kord.
I have something to show as well, one knit is completed and the next started but we shall talk about it next time.

Täna tunnis/Today in class

Viimastel päevadel sain suhteliselt vähe kududa. Aga tund toimub nagu kord ja kohus. Kuna seltskonnas oli erinevaid soove, tegime kompromissi. Räägime nii sadulõlast kui ka rätikute konstrueerimiset.
Last couple of days I did not have much time for knitting. But the class will take place as supposed. As there were different wishes among the students, we made a compormise. We shall discuss both saddle shoulder and shawl constructions.

Mitmesuguseid asju/Various matters

Nüüd on Kristeli moeshow läbi ja siin saab näha pilte, kus on ka Maokirja sviiter nr. 1. Mind on ka mainitud. Foto: Deborah Smith.
Now Kristel's fashion show is over and here you can see pictures with the Snake pattern sweater no 1. My name is mentioned as well. Photo by Deborah Smith.

 

Teiseks, n-ö tavaelu variant (vt eelmine postitus) on saanud palju "laike" Facebookis ja nüüd arutame, kas teha kooskudumine. Kui soovite, siis võite kommenteerida siin. Küsimus on veel, kas teha Ravelrys või Facebooki rühm.
Second, so-called everyday version (see previous post) has got a lot of "likes" on Facebook and we are talking about a possible KAL. If you are interested, you can comment here. Another question is whether to do it on Ravelry or to make a group on Facebook.

 

Kolmandaks, töös on lihtne topp. Tegin teise pildi üsna heledaks, et triibud oleksid näha. Tegelikult on nad üsna nähtavad, aga pildil kipuvad ära kaduma. Lõng on puuvillase ja linase segu.
Third, I am working on a simple top. I made the second picture rather light in order to make the stripes visible. In real life they are quite visible but tend to disappear in the picture. The yuarn is cotton and linen blend.

Sviitri pilte/Pictures of the sweater

Eile kohtusin Miaga, kes tuli Tallinna üle hulga aja.
Yesterday I met with Mia who came to Tallinn after a long break.

Ja siis ta tegi mõned sviitri pildid. Suur tänu! Kiitos!
And then she took some pictures of the sweater. Many thanks!

Paar asja/A couple of things

Kas mäletate seda salli?
Do you remember this scarf?

Nüüd on eestikeelne õpetus ilmunud Käsitöös.
The pattern has just been published in the Estonian magazine Käsitöö.

 

Sviiter on lõpuks valmis, kuivab nüüd. Loodetavasti saan lähiajal korralikud pildid.
The sweater is finally finished and is drying. Hopefully, I will get proper pictures taken soon.
