Rambling Rose villatakki on vihdoin pingottumassa! Aikamoista viisilonkeroisen mustekalan kanssa painimista on tuollaisen hartioista yhteen neulotun takin pingotus, mutta luulen, että onnistuin hyvin. Menihän tuossa liki 45 minuuttia mittanauhan kanssa heiluessa, että kaikki osaset tulivat oikeaan muotoon. Huomenna nähdään kuinka hyvin onnistuin, kun pääsen ompelemaan saumat.
Rambling Rose cardigan is finally blocking! I felt like I was wrestling with an octopus (or rather a pentapus) when I blocked the yoke but I think I eventually did fine. It took me almost 45 minutes to block the whole thing with a measuring tape so that I got all the pieces fitted in to the right dimensions. We’ll see tomorrow how well I did when I get to seaming.
Päättelin myös langanpäät ennen pingotusta, kun TV- aikaa oli sopivasti jäljellä. Tuossa takissa olikin pääteltävää:
I also wove in the ends since I had some TV- time left. There were a lot of ends in the cardigan:
That is going to be a lovely cardigan. I’ve never seen one blocked like that. It took a moment to figure out what was what.
Thanks for letting me know which was the nameless finger. I like reading the story of Louhi to Fiona, but I feel badly because I am sure that I am mangling the pronunciation of some of the names. (It is a story about how she stole the sun and the moon.)
Hieno! Muakin tuo takki houkutteli, mutta se tuntui kuitenkin hiukan liioitellulta. Ihan tosi kiinnostavaa nähdä sun versiointi noin erilaisissa väreissä – tämä saa mut kyllä harkitsemaan asiaa uudelleen.
I love how your sweater turned out!
I am just starting to knit one for me, and although I am attempting to knit it in the round, seeing you posting the pictures of how it turned out helped to inspire me!
