Suve jätk. Let the Summer go on.

Veel üks lihtne ent kaunis lehesall.

Nimelt on mul tellimus ühelt üle-atlandi kenalt naisterahvalt, kes soovib oma õdedele sarnased sallid kinkida. Nii on mul vardalt maas valge ja hall ning pruun veel tulemas.
Selle halli tarvis leidsin imepehme ja luksusliku lõnga Lianni lõngapoest - Katia Miski (100% baby laama vill:)). Kulutasin teda ka suht luksuslikult - 9 tokki.
Varras 5mm.
Suurus sai 60x190cm.

Pildi tegemiseks saime viimaks laiskusest üle ning veeretasime end täna hommikul kell 6 kogu perega randa. Päike oli juba küll liialt kõrgel (eksole alati midagi, mis ikkagi ei klapi;)) hea valguse saamiseks, ent meeleolu oli ülev, vesi oli soe, liiv paljaste jalgade alla siidine, koer õhinas.

Sel aal , kui meie tütrega rannaliival pilti tegime, alustasid mehed metsa all hommikusöögiga. Peab ütlema, et see hommikusöök peale varajast pildisessiooni maitses värskes õhus ikka väga hästi:)

Another simple and beautiful leaf-wrap.
There is a lovely lady who asked me to knit 3 similar wraps so she could give them to her sisters. Is'nt it a nice idea!
White and gray are done, brown is more to go.

Found this glorious yarn for this piece - its Katia Miski (100% baby llama wool) and knitted it 9 skeins. Needles 5mm.
Size turned out 60x190cm.

For a photo shoot we drove on the seaside this morning at 6:) All family packed in, warm breakfast in the basket.
Sun was already shining high (too high for getting good lighting, but huh:)), but we were in excellent mood, excited that we got up so early on Sunday morning. Water was nicely warm, sand under my feet so soft - so we had good fun. I hope it seems on photos:)
At the same time we were shooting on beach, boys were starting with breakfast nearby under the pines. This breakfast, after shooting tasted extra good.



Mu kallis fotograaf Loore otsustas tagatipuks end veidi merevees leotada. Riided unustas selga:)

And my dear photographer Loore is taking a kind of dressed up swim afterwards:)

Tundus, et muster ei tulnud meie rannapiltidel kenasti esile ja tegin sellest eraldi pildi juurde.

Seemed from "action" photos, that pattern does'nt come out much and so did I another shot of the pattern to show.
Ja kui juba, siis see roosa pojeng on täiesti vastupandamatu - ei saanud kuidagi pildistamata jätta:)

Could'nt anyhow resist, but shoot also those irresistibly gorgeous paeonias! Sharing those as well:)

Nüüd on küll kõvasti siin jagatud tänaseks!
Tänud!


Now got awfully lot of sharing!
Thank you!

Pruudi emale. For a Mother of the Bride.

Olen ikka juba pruutidele siin nii mõnedki kudunud ja korra juba ka peigmehele, nüüd siis jõudis kätte pruudi Ema kord:) Talle meeldis minu Vesiroosi sall ja nii ma läksingi seda teed ning kudusin samalaadse õlakatte, kuid seekord ainult peenest mohääri-siidi segusest lõngast.
Lõng Rowan Kidsilk Haze, toon pearl, peaaegu 4 tokki kulutasin.
Varras 3,5, serva tarvis 4mm.


I have knitted for Brides time to time. Even for a Groom once. Now came a Mother of the Bride's turn:) She picked up my Waterlily shawl , so I did - knitted another similar shawl.

This time only out of fine mohair-silk blend - Rowan Kidsilk Haze. Shade is pearl. Almost 4 skeins.
Needles 3,5 for a body part and 4mm for edging.


Pilti tegi minust Taavi. Pildilt paistab, et ma ise võiksin ka juba vabalt pruudi ema olla:)

Tänud!

Photos with shawl are taken by Taavi. As it seems on photos - I could also be a Mother of a Bride already;)

Thank you!

Suve algus. Let the Summer begin.

Sedakorda tellimustöö.
Armas naisterahvas, kes soovis salli, et see oma õele kinkida, valis lehemustri ning minu "mureks" jäi see servata.

Lõngaks valisin Lion Brand Fisherman Wool. Lihtsalt imeliselt aus ja ehe villane. Soetasin ta Kosmose vastas asuvast Lõngapoest. Müüjanna ütles, et see lõng koob end ise - seda ta tõesti tegi - minu osa oli lihtsalt vardaid peos hoida:) Kulus lõnga u 300g.
Varras 6mm.
Suurus sai aus - 65x200cm - just selline, millesse on end hea sisse kerida ning suveõhtul jalutama minna või verandal raamatut lugeda või sõbrannadega kohvitada:)

This item is knitted by custom order.
Lovely lady, who is about give it as a gift, told me that she would like to have it with leaves pattern. So, everything I had to do, was add "my endings".


I chose for this knit Lion Brand Fisherman Wool, which is just most wonderful pure and fair woolen yarn. Then I bought it, lovely shop owner said - this yarn knits itself - so it did - I just had to hold needles. 6mm needles I held:) Knitted about 300grams of yarn.
Size turned out proper - 65x200cm - just enough to wrap yourself in for a nice walk or a tea party in the garden.


Pilti tegi mul Taavi. Tütar veedab koolivaheaega vanaema juures:)

Tänud läbi astumast!


Photos are made by my hubby this time, as my daughter is spending her summer break in grannies:)

Thank you for stopping by!

Pruudi Uhkus. The Pride of the Bride.

Taaskord üks imearmas pruut saab omale uhke õlakatte tähtsaks päevaks.
Sedakorda sain rohkem ennast sisse panna - ei ole traditsiooniline pitsiline õlasall vaid lõngadest inspireeritult suursugune ja mahuline "teos".

Serv on kootud topelt.
Näitan detailina. Kes teab - ehk näeme ka kunagi pruudi õlgadel kantuna.

Lõngad: Katia Tupa (50% meriinovilla, 50% siidi!) ja Titan Wooli BBB Soft Dream. Liann Lõngapoest.
Esimest kulutasin tiba üle 3 toki ja teist tubli 5 tokki.
Varras 4mm.

Siit paistab, et ka nn pahupool on täiesti "kantav".
Üks põhjusi, miks sellist teed läksin ongi see, et kandja ei peaks pead murdma, milline on salli õige pool. Õlasallidega ikka juhtub, et näed, kuis keegi on iluduse pahupidi õlgadele laotanud.

Once again - one lucky Bride is about getting married and I had a chance to make something special for her important day.
This time its more "mine" - not traditional lace shawl, but glorious foliated wrap. Inspiration came from yarns.
As it seems from photos, I tried to knit it this way, that also backside of the item would be wearable. So, the Bride doesnt have to worry, if she wears it right.
It happens, that beautiful shawl is worn backside up:)
So did I also edging double.

Comes in details right here. Who knows, maybe we will see it on the Brides shoulders also one day.
Yarns: Katia Tupa (50% merino, 50% silk!) and Titan Wool BBB Soft Dream. First one used bit more than 3 sekins and second one 5 skeins.
Needles 4mm.

PS! Piltidel paistvate ehete autoriks on Kriss Põldma ning prossi autoriks Anu Konze.

Sain pruudile täna salli üle anda ning võin südamerahus öelda, et talle väga meeldis.
Ta lubas, et saame kindlasti ka "päris" piltide osaliseks, kui pulmapidu juuli alguses peetud:)

Note 07.06
The Bride got her shawl today and I am glad to say, that she was very happy and excited about it!
She promised that she will share also their wedding photos:)
