A few weeks ago Ola was sent to Vienna for work, to see the headquarters. So...
First; I want to see to Vienna too!
Second; I hate when he leaves, I always get confronted with his mortality.
Thirdly; Bring me back some Austrian yarn!
And he did! With Ravelry's help I got some addresses to yarn stores close to the city-centre. I didn't know anything about the stores just were they were and that they sold yarn. The one he got to was a small cozy place with an owner who spoke very little English, but somehow he understood that this was yarn made in Salzburg. It is called Seide and is a gorgeously soft blend of silk and merino, smoochy but with a shine. I am waiting for the very right pattern before I start in on this.
And also you have to love a yarn with hugging sheep on the label!
Hej! Såg att du lämnat kommentar på min uggletröja :) Är lite osäker på om jag ska ha knappar på den eller ej. Tycker det kan bli lite mycket med knappar på alla. Kanske gör det på några stycken bara.. isåfall blir de bruna.
ReplyDeleteGör den sjalen! Den är jättehärlig.. men den tar lång tid att sticka, tyvärr....
Du kanske kan använda väldigt små knappar, så blir det inte så tydligt. Men jag håller med, på vissa jag har sett har det blivit lite "gosedjurigt".
ReplyDeleteSjalen såg verkligen jättehärlig ut, trevligt att se den på "riktigt" och inte bara i boken, om jag börjar snart så kanske den är färdig tills nästa vinter. :)
