Diligent firtrees and lazy pinetrees

20 days after sowing have passed and there are already 5 firtrees germinated:

Unfortunately pinetrees are lazy. None have appeared yet.

Almost a shawl

Yesterday I felt big desire to felt a shawl. I have just finished my felting classes, so I think I know about that everything. Beginning goes ok:

The problem was that I was lack of wool, so the middle felt up somehow by merino is very poor however I still hoped that will be enough:

The process good also for loosing weight:


I didn't make the final picture... Maybe it will be a summer blancet for a child. The lesson I learnt:
1. BIG amount of wool is needed.
2. Merino is not good with cheese-cloth.
My next step is to felt a poncho. It mustnot fail!

Lazy skirt

I took this piece of tricot and made a super simpla skirt of it just by making a crocheted bottom edge and a tie for waist.



Actually the waist does not look perfect. So it must be hidden under the top.
