Cabled Hand Warmers
In the midst of summer...was when I finally found the time to hand-wash some all-wool mittens! Then I had to try them on and dream of winter.

shalom (rose)
This is my second shalom cardigan, in pink, with no sleeves-as I did not have enough yarn. I only used 2 skeins of Zeeman Julia yarn (340m), purchased last February in Kortrjik, Belgium.

one can never have enough yarn
Recent treasur-acquisition from a visit to Plectorium in Larissa.
This daily trip to my favorite yarn shop was the best birthday present I have had ever!!

dragontail (rose)
I made two dragontail scarves, the blue one offered to a friend as a present (becaused she loved the color) and this water-melon colored-for me.
This pattern does not compliment this yarn as much as I would like, and the yarn is also a bit scratchy. But in any way, it is a very easy and very impressive pattern. I might give it a try with a bulkier, winter yarn.

Crazy Eights Dishcloth
This is not a lolipop...
...this is a dishcloth-whatever that means (*).
I tried this pattern just to find out how a circle is knitted-and it was very easy-just a series of short rows repeated 8 times.
I knitted the white first, in coton yarn, and then I tried combinind white and red because I thought it would be funny, lolipopy and christmacy!
(*) Dish-cloth is not a drying-dish-towel as (I thought that) the name suggests, nor is it used to dry the kitchen tablea area. It is the cloth used to wash the dishes. Lesson learned!
