Hamsterikuukausi lähenee loppuaan (lopettamispäivä 15.3) ja yritän tässä vielä epätoivoisesti saada jotain valmiiksi. Maxwell parka joutui taas jäähylle, vaikka loppu on jo lähellä: vetoketju on ommeltu (huom. päätin ommella sen vain kiinni enkä jäänyt surffailemaan parasta tapaa tehdä se) ja toinen hiha on neulottu (pyöriön tein jo kolmannen kerran). Eli eiköhän se siitä. Ja viime kirjoituksessani mainostamani Tallinnanlangasta aloittamani neule on purettu. Joo-oh, siitä taisi tulla liian kapea kuitenkin. Siispä sekin pääsee takaisin marinoitumaan. Mutta mitä siis ryhdyin tekemään? Noh, nyt on vuorossa kaapissa olevaa puseroa mukaileva tekele Lana Grossan Merino Superfein-langasta (Tallinnanlöytöjä tämäkin). Tarkoituksena olisi saada aikaan lyhythihainen pikkupusero jonka voi sujauttaa vaikka jakun alle. Tarkoitus on hyvä, mutta toteutuksen kanssa voi käydä vähän niin ja näin. Nimittäin kaupassa oli lankaa vain 250g enkä ole ollenkaan varma riittääkö se. Nähtäväksi jää...ehkä siitä tulee sitten hihaton toppi.

Yarn diet is getting closer to the end (ending date 15.3) and I'm desperately trying to get something finished before that. Poor Maxwell is on break again even though the end is near: the zipper is in place (note: I decided to just sew that on instead of surfing around the best way to do it) and the other sleeve is knitted (sleeve top was knitted three times). So it'll get there. And the Tallin wool thingy I wrote about in my last entry, well, it's frogged. Yeah, it was going to be too narrow. So that'll go back to the stash to wait for better times. But what am I doing now then? Well, now I'm trying to make something similar to an existing top from Lana Grossa Merino Superfein yarn (this is from Tallinn also). I'm trying to make a short-sleeved top that I can wear with a jacket or something. The spirit is willing but the yarn may be weak. They only had 250g of the yarn at the store and I'm not at all sure if it'll be enough. We'll see...maybe it'll be a sleeveless top then.
