Skully was completed yesterday. Dry, however, he still is not.
is here with us at the time it wet, cold and rainy. In Malle's are supposedly 20 degrees - but definitely not here. Yesterday I followed all the old habit after felting wet things (towel, Skully) hung on the balcony with the result that they are this morning at least ganauso wet as yesterday afternoon.
Skully is now hanging on the towel rack above the heater in the bathroom. Would be ridiculous if the guy I do not dry
pictures would get complacent?

has knitted the little guy flash. With intarsia patterns I have no problems - as long as I can knit in the round. Accordingly, I was quite nervous in front of Skully, because that is so knitted in round series. It went well but if, as the model has little short color change.
The turn was then a problem that I had not expected - floats over 20 stitches! I verkreuzt the threads go, but with needles that good a needle size are too thick for the yarn, was not a real pleasure. (I knit my knitting felted always a little too big needles, so that the yarn space

what he weighs, I do not know yet because I forgot to weigh it in the dry state. Wet and benefits nix it. I had spun around 130 grams and 100 grams of Gotland Shetland wool from the white Shetlandgarn is still much left (this should be enough even for the letters in the Harry Potter sweater for my husband, but more about that later), the gray Gotlandgarn still estimated 40 grams remain.
