it is not getting much better- the light, that is. but as far as i remember, there can be glorious sunny january days. and right now joni mitchell sings: and darkness, darkness, no colour, no contrast. so lovely pictures in near future is more than i can promise.
i finished my brother's sweater. but i don't have it in me to sew the sideseams since it needs a wet block first, and that is about the most boring thing in this world. i hate all the pinning of all the pieces. usually i do it, but in this case i have to bring out a big duvet to pin on, since the sweater is huge.
so i forgot all about my last post and went out to get some new yarn with my niece. another ponchito for her. and a poncho for alba. the green for my niece, the cotton candy for alba. i came to think that she is a girl and maybe she has other colour preferences than me though i seriously doubt it. she wants a green bicycle for christmas!!! little miss strange.
the green amorphous knitting is a dress for alba. it is a dress with a border of owls. really cute. and soon finished...
oh yes and then my knitpicks. i think these needles are my new love. nothing is better. no addi, nothing is better.

I sort of hate the pinning, too. Maybe that's why I don't knit big sweaters!
I'm not a big fan of the pinning, either, but I do like the end result!
Those knitpicks needles are my favorite, too. I love them.
