Things are so much easy when you have someone to knit for... then it is possible to think about patterns and colors that the person you're knitting for might like."<br /><br />YES! Same problem here!<br />Some people ask me how could I put so much time and effort to knit something for somebody else often for no reason. Well because that´s what makes it fun! :-) It is boring to knit for myself...Adahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16335957859087032390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-59397178462466054162011-09-08T13:50:25.175+00:002011-09-08T13:50:25.175+00:00Ale: Voy a incribirme en el grupo de facebook... a...Ale: Voy a incribirme en el grupo de facebook... aunque en realidad facebook "no me llama mucho la atención" No soy muy activo allí : ) Gracias por la invitación! Y bueno.. allí nos veremos también entonces!<br /><br />Celia: Gracias por tu visita y tus generosas palabras :) Ya me inscribí en el grupo de facebook... solicitud enviada! Vi que tienes varios blogs... les daré una mirada dentro de un ratín :) Saludos!<br /><br />Dear Judi, I really enjoyed making this little tiny card. I have to try to work it a little better I thing... you know... little details to make it look better (I am not saying that this one looks bad... but as the first one let's say this would be somekind of a beta-version, hehe). <br />Lopi is a wonderful wool. It comes in several forms. This one is the "lace form" and it is called einband (or loðband or eigirni... the truth is that I have no idea why they call it with so many different names!). Since there is so much lopi in Iceland it is rally cheap and the quality is amazing. They have SO MANY amazing colors!<br />You're right about the nupps. It is a succesion of stitch-yo on the same stitch Depending on the kind of yarn you're using you can make it 3; 5; 7 or even 9 stitches in one. The tricky part, at least when you are just learning, is to purl all these stitches together when you're knitting (well, purling) the wrong side. <br />The Aeolians! Yes! We already met and saw them all three together! I still have to post about that!! It was a little bit difficult to take good pictures because they are so big! And besides the light wasn't very good... we met late in the evening. But I will post them very soon! :) I already gave mine away... I gave it to the sister of my friend that moved to Sweden for her birthday : ) She was very happy with it... she almost wanted to cry when she opened the box... <br /><br />Ana Clara: Gracias por visitarme! Ya me he apuntado al grupo en Facebook... estoy esperando la aprobación :)<br />Dulce de leche (manjar como lo llamamos en Chile)... una de las cosas que más extrano de Chile en cuanto a sabores y cosas ricas para comer! Me gusta el dulce de leche con todo y en todas sus formas, aunque nunca lo he probado en licor. <br />No conocía la historia del origen del dulce de leche! Ahora tengo una nueva historia para contar a quienes no conocen el dulce de leche! jeje<br />Un abrazo grande!<br /><br />Cristina: Muchas gracias por tu visita :) Me hace muy feliz que te guste leer mi blog :) Un beso!RodPrjónarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15078316065512574287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-84351064722588964142011-09-08T06:29:40.225+00:002011-09-08T06:29:40.225+00:00como siempre todo precioso!!!! me encanta leerte :...como siempre todo precioso!!!! me encanta leerte :-).<br />Las targetas son geniales, me apunto la idea (gracias por los buenos momentos delante del ordenador)cristinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-54384244964195548732011-09-07T12:33:10.055+00:002011-09-07T12:33:10.055+00:00Hola, Rod, yo tambien te invito a ser parte de nue...Hola, Rod, yo tambien te invito a ser parte de nuestro grupo PROFUGAS DEL BLOGGER EN FACEBOOK, te va a encantar, por mi parte me gustó mucho tu blog, los paisajes,los chales,ah! soy de Argentina ,país donde nacío el dulce de leche: cuenta la historia que el general Rosas gustaba de tomar mate con leche azucarada, se lo cebaba una negrita, estamos hablando del tiempo de la colonia, resulta ser que este personaje pintoresco, se olvido al fuego la olla con la leche con azúcar, y cuando fue a buscarla...se habia convertido en una crema, había nacido el dulce de leche!!!! querido amigo tejedor y goloso, prometo buscarte recetas de distintas formas de hacer este dulce tan amado por los argentinos, con el que tambien podes elaborar postres y licores, te dejo un abrazo enorme!!!!

As usual, your creativity is amazin...Hello-finally! As usual, your creativity is amazing! To even think of making matching cards is unbelievable! Only you, I'm thinking. They truly are works of art. Loved the use of the black paper for framing. Makes the insert stand out and definitley could be framed and hung for constant enjoyment.<br />I understand your need of someone to knit for. I think most of us are that way. There are some things I'd like to make, but then I think "What will I do with it when done?!" so I move on to something else with a purpose in mind. See, you're not so unusual after all. :-) That blue is a pretty color, but a bit bright. Probably would take someone with either real dark hair or real blonde hair to wear it well - or a baby boy.:-)Obviously your heart wasn't in it since you "made some mistakes on the swatch."<br />The green is very pretty, as is that pattern. I noticed it's a "Lopi." :-) It's neat how you can see the leaves and nupps. I like a name of a pattern that goes along with the pattern! You have said before that you like making nupps. I don't think I've tried. Are you knitting several times in the same stitch? I'm anxious to see what the ends are like. You are so willing to try so many different things.I'm sure the finishing touches will turn it into another beautiful work of art. Hmmm...just thought. Did the other two Aeolian shawls get completed yet? <br />FYI: Did you know there is a Bobbin Lace Ravelry group?<br />I'm now off to write an email :-)Judi A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09618310997994024137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-60970650000831180432011-09-06T20:11:07.259+00:002011-09-06T20:11:07.259+00:00Hola acepta la invitacion de Ale , seria fantasti...Hola acepta la invitacion de Ale , seria fantastico tenerte en el grupo.....soy chilena tambien y para mi es un agrado conocerte y ver las maravillas que haces , tus chales son estupendos y como si fuera poco, tus fotografias tan artisticas y bellisimas.Un abrazo!!!CELIAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11369752715663675194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-24736890713107419352011-09-06T15:54:08.449+00:002011-09-06T15:54:08.449+00:00:) jeje..

Me gusta mucho como está quedando el chal también! jeje<br /><br />Ale: los famosos nupps. Debo admitir que soy un adicto a los nupps.

I have plenty of while einband that I'm going to plant dye this autumn and even though I'm not the biggest fan of lace knits I think I'm gonna try to knit a shawl of some kind. Btw, the brown poncho I was knitting during the Snaefellsnes trip is just about to be ready, I just need to buy one more skein of Bulky lopi to finish it :)<br /><br />Thanks again for the trip & hope to see you soon again, maybe for a little knitting party? ;)<br /><br />MiraMirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02141633749049864175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-4833340398058370782011-09-05T07:22:44.123+00:002011-09-05T07:22:44.123+00:00Such tranquil beauty!Such tranquil beauty!Kerrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174247364848518816.post-49667884112193131972011-09-04T22:23:43.270+00:002011-09-04T22:23:43.270+00:00Hola!!!!
