Kooskudumine ja kingitus/Knitting together and a gift

Täna sain kokku Annega, kes tuli Soomest üle hulga aja (vasakul) ja Avega (paremal). Nagu näha, mõlemad koovad usinasti. Mõlemad alustavad kolmnurkset rätikut.
Today I met with Anne who arrived from Finland after a long break (left) and with Ave (right). As you can see, both knit diligentrly. Both are in the beginning of a triangular shawl.
Selle pildi tegi Ave. Nagu näha, mina pole nii usin, vaatan kaamerasse. Ja ei koo rätikut, vaid midagi muut.
This picture was made by Ave. As you can see, I am not very diligent, I am looking into the camera. And I am not knitting a shawl but something else.

See oli päris kena kohtumine, vaatamata vihmasele ilmale. Jõudsin koju ja kodus oli ootamas selline üllatus!
It was a nice meeting despite of the rainy weather. I got home where this surprise had been waiting for me!
Lidia on hea sõber Ravelryst. Suhtleme tihti, vahetame arvamusi. Loen tema blogi ja tema loeb minu oma. Selge, et Eestis ja USA-s on väga erinev lõngavalik. Muidugi saab meie ajal tellida internetist, aga tavaliselt ma seda ei tee, sest tahan lõnga katsuda ja veenduda, et värv on sobiv. Ja lõnga puudust Eestis pole. Samas on väga tore ja õpetlik kududa mõnest tundmatust lõngast. Ja üllatuslõng on tõesti kena, eriti, kui värv ja tekstuur sobib. See on Shibui firma 100 % linane, 50 g/225 m. Lõng on nagu peenike kootud nöör. Aitäh, Lidia!
Lidia is my good friend from Ravelry. We often correspond and exchange opinions. I regularly read her blog and she does mine. It is clear that Estonia and USA differs much as far as yarn choice is concerned. Of course, nowadays you can order yarns via internet but I usually don't do this because I want to touch the yarn and to be sure about colours. And there is no lack of yarn in Estonia. At the same time, it is nice and instructive to knit something from an unknown yarn. And a surprise yarn is really nice especially when the colour and the texture are pleasant. This one is 100 % linen (by Shibui), 50 g/225 m. The yarn is like a thin knitted rope. Thank you, Lidia!
