Stripes and snow

There's no such thing as "too many stripes". If you know me, you know this is a rule I tend to follow. 

Maybe I just made up this rule right here right now but whatever. Stripes are fun. Stripes are pretty.

Pattern: Stripe Study by Veera Välimäki

The holidays are over, I spent Christmas and New years in the north as usual, visiting friends and family.

I managed to loose one of my favourite mitts. Really annoying, I've still got one left but no yarn so I guess it's more of a decoration from now on. I am knitting the same pattern again, with different yarn. 

But I'm still really annoyed with myself.

To end this post in a more positive note I'll show you a picture of a cutie I had the fortune to visit this Christmas. His name is Svante and belongs to my dad. He's quite the character.
