It turned out unexpectedly will. While I was knitting, I was thinking that this was just an average scarf but after socking and blocking I put it on and did not want to take off.

Sall/The scarf
See kukkus välja ootamatult hästi. Kui kudusin, arvasin, et on tavaline sall, kuid pärast leotamist ja pingutamist panin kaela ja ei tahtnud ära võtta.

Üht ja teist/Various matters
Sall üleminekuvärvidega sokilõngast on valmis. Selle pildi tegin siis, kui oli veel pooleli. Varsti näitan juba valmiskujul ja kirjutan pikemalt. Praegu ütlen vaid, et pool- või täispatent on lihtne ja efektne muster, sobib ka siis, kui teha sall igasugu jääkides. Külmemal ajal võtan ette ja revideerin oma mohäärijääke, siis tuleb jälle midagi patentkoes.
The scarf from variegated sock yarn is finished. I took this pics when it was still in progress. I will get taken photos of the completed scarf soon and write more about it. For now I would just say that half-brioche and brioche is simple yet outstanding pattern and is good for a scarf from all kind of leftowers. When the cold season comes, I will undertake revision of my mohair leftovers and make something in brioche stitch again.
Varsti tuleb veel rätikuid, sest ees on traditsiooniline käsitöökruiis ja sain juba lõnga ja ülesande disainida krusiisrätik. Sügisel tuleb Tallinna Rahvaülikoolis rätikute konstrueerimise kursus, vt siin, selleks ajaks peaksin läbi kuduma veel paar konstruktsiooni.
There will be more shawls soon because the traditional carft cruise (Helsinki-Stockholm) is coming and I have already got some yarn and the task to design a shawl. In autumn I will teach shawl construction course at Tallinn Folk University (if you know Estonian, look here) and I have to knit up several more constructions before that time.

Rätik on valmis/The shawl is completed
Paar pilti.

I used up slightly more than 2 balls of Extra Fine Brushed Kid Mohair, or slightly less than 500 m and the same number of metres of merino (100 g/1500 m). Needles 5 mm.I

Patentkoes sall/Scarf in brioche stitch
Selline lõng ei vaja mingeid keerulisi mustreid. Teen praegu lihtsat salli.
This yarn does not require any complicated pattern. I am making a simple scarf now.

Rätik/A shawl
Näitan protsessi pilte, tegelikult on rätik juba valmis. Kirjutasin sellest siin.
Here are pics of progress but actually the shawl is already completed. I wrote here about it.
Põhimuster on selline, nagu Opera rätiku oma, aga ääre tegin lühikeste rideadega, nagu Sherwoodi rätiku puhul, et oleksid pikemad otsad.
The main pattern is the same as in Opera shawl but the edge has short rows like in the case of Sherwood shawl in order to get longer ends.

Jälle kaksikud/Twins again
Kui mõni mudel õnnestub, siis mulle meeldib seda korrata, nt teisest lõngast, teist värvi jms. Sain hiljuti valmis musta topi. Lõng on teine, puhas puuvill (Cotton Egitto, Katia, 50 g/125 m).
If some design turns out well, I like to repeat it in different yarn, different colour etc. I've finished this black top recently. The yarn is different, pure cotton (Cotton Egitto, Katia, 50 g/125 m).
Info halli topi kohta siin.
More information about the grey top here.

Rätiku algus/Beginning of a shawl
Koos on Adele's Mohair Extra Fine ja peenike meriino. Mohäär on väga pehme ja suhteliselt karvane, nii et tundub, et muster on näha vastu valgust või kaugelt vaadates. Aga pole hullu, kudumine on mõnus. Konstruktsioonist kirjutan hiljem, kui on rohkem näidata.
Adele's Mohair Extra Fine is combined with laceweight merino. Mohair is very soft and relatively hairy, so it seems that one can see the pattern only against light or looking from a distance. But this is not a problem, it knits up nicely. I will write about the construction when I will have more to show.

Lühike video/A short video
Olen reisil, seetõttu ei postita kuigi tihti. Siin on väike video topist, mis sai just valmis.
I am on a trip and, thus, do not post often. Here is a short video of the top I've just completed.

Auguline mohäärist jakk/Mohair eyelet cardi
Auke on väga lihtne kududa, pole midagi erilist, aga nad sobivad mitmesugusele lõngale ja on palju igasuguseid variatsioone. Tuli välja päris kena koepind.
Eyelets are rather simple to knit, nothing special, yet they go well with different yarns and there are many variations. The fabric is rather nice.

Jyväskylä kudumisfestifal/Jyväskylä knitfest
Kahjuks ei sobi mulle see aeg reisimiseks, aga mind esindab Jyväskylä festivalil Opera-nimeline rätik. Kui plaanite sinna minna, uudistage Woolmint käsitsi värvitud lõngu. Seal saab rätikut ka katsuda ja soovi korral õpetuse. Õpetus ilmub Ravelrys pärast festivali.
Unfortunately I cannot travel at this moment but I am represented with my Opera shawl at Jyväskylä Knitfest. If you are going to be there, have a look at hand-dyed yarns by Woolmint. You can see the shawl and get the pattern there, too, if you wish. The pattern will be published on Ravelry after the festival.

Rätik sokilõngast/Sock yarn shawl
Kirjutasin siin Martin's Lab sokilõngast. Nüüd pärast mitmeid katsetusi sai valmis rätik.
I wrote here about Martin's Lab sockyarn. Now after several attempts the shawl is completed.
Põhimuster on poolpatendi ja aukude kombinatsioon. Aga äär on ripskoes ning tänu lühikestele ridadele ei ole tipp nii terava nurgaga ja otsad on pikemad.
The body of the shawl is a combination of half-brioche stitch and eyelets. The edge is in garter stitch and due to short rows the tip does has a less sharper angle and the ends are longer.
Õpetus on tulemas.
Pattern is coming.
