Apesar de não tricotar (acho que um ou dois projectos por ano não contam), adoro lãs. Em Inglaterra é muito fácil encontrar fios de excelente qualidade (não só em pura lã como também em alpaca, caxemira, seda, algodão e outras fibras naturais) e a enorme diversidade de cores e texturas disponíveis nas lojas fazem disparar a imaginação até de uma não-tricotadeira como eu.
A minha mãe veio cá passar uns tempos e no sábado fomos às compras. Estes novelos vão ser transformados em camisolas e casacos de bebé para o próximo Outono... mal posso esperar!
Although I don't knit (I don't think my one or two projects a year are enough to qualify me as a knitter), I love yarn. In England it's very easy to find excellent quality yarn (not only pure wool but also alpaca, cashmere, silk, cotton and other natural fibers) and the huge array of colours and textures that are available in the shops make even a non-knitter such as myself dream about all their possibilities.
My mother has come to stay and on Saturday we went shopping. These skeins are destined to become the baby's cardigans and jumpers for next autumn... I can't wait!

Infelizmente só sei fazer liga e meia, portanto também não conta! A minha mãe não sabe tricotar, mas faz muito bem crochet, e gostei muito das cores das lãs!

Very beautiful colors! Un beso , Begoña
ReplyDeleteAs cores são muito bonitas!! Aqui na Noruega também existem muitas lãs de boa qualidade e uma grande tradição em tricotar. Todos os miúdos aprendem a tricotar na escola, em algum momento do seu percurso escolar. É muito normal ver as pessoas a tricotar nos transportes e os presentes tricotados são muito apreciados! Eu estou a aproveitar a minha estadia cá para ver se aprendo um pouquinho mais...e aproveitar as cores lindas que existem!! Beijinhos e uma hora pequenina!!!
ReplyDeleteComecei ontem a tricotar, estou super feliz!! Fico a espera das tuas sugestões que são sempre fantásticas. Espero que esteja tudo a correr muito bem com a barriguinha!! bjinhos
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours!!! Hope you thoroughly enjoy your knitting stint. :) I'd love to know what patterns you are going to use. I am due in June (winter here) and itching to get knitting something more than beanies! :)
ReplyDeleteLindas as cores! Para mim esses enxovais são os que têm mais encanto! Os que são handmade, a pensar especialmente na criança!!
ReplyDeleteBeijinhos!

Adoro os tons suaves de azul!
ReplyDeleteLove the colours! Bisous!
ReplyDeleteYes, please write a book and ask your mom to translate the pattern for the baby sleep sack!
ReplyDeleteI live in England and it isn't easy to find yarn for me as I have no yarn shops nearby at all. Any yarn I buy has to be bought on the internet. Sometimes it is not quite what you are expecting!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful colours :D
ReplyDeleteThe Balmoral is a lovely yarn, I published a free knitting pattern for a baby jacket knitted in Balmoral a while back ... once blocked it makes a light, soft fabric :D
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate your efforts and I will be waiting for your further post thank you once again.
