The moment I saw Veeras Gathering Stripes - adult version, I knew I had to knit one. But which colours should I choose? Those stripes, that collar... all the sudden I had the impression this sweater ...
Thank you very much for your warm welcome! Many of you have been writing to me over the last twelve months - most messages I left unanswered. I will try to reply to you during the next ten days. Hope...
Dear friends out there, this long break wasnt planned and I didnt expect to need such a long time to get back on my feet again. I want to apologize to everyone who has been concerned and written to m...

We are fine. Staying at a friends house because there is no electricity at our home. Hope you are all well, here in Japan! S., ich ruf Dich morgen an! Keine Sorge, uns geht es gut.
Wristwarmers in garter stitch - one of the first projects I teach in my knitting class for beginners (girls and boys 8-13 years). Cast on, knit stitch, bind off, a little bit of sewing and then adorn...
Dont ask... the days just flew by and I just couldnt... when there was time I have been knitting, what else, this addiction is hard to fight, especially because there is so much pretty yarn in the wo...
Hello again. Nine pictures I took yesterday while visiting Soga Bairin near Odawara. A place and a lovely matsuri (festival) I never get tired of. The festival will continue until the end of the mont...
Did I say talk to you soon?! The beginning of a new school term got in the way and I had a bit to prepare my classes. I am now teaching three classes, girls and boys from age six to...
Again I am talking about knitting and yarn again, when all I should think about are quilts...! Somebody come over and take away my needles because I cant put them down. Knitting a pair of simple wris...
Second time around the Age of Brass and Steam Kerchief actually ended up being a nice and simple triangle! Not switching to larger needles halfway obviously was the key... again one additional repeat...
The immature form of this shawl surely was quite dispiriting. More than once I considered frogging it because the yarn became fuzzier and fuzzier and the edges kept rolling up badly. Also the shape c...
Because some of you asked I wrote down a short instruction for making the legwarmers. Happy knitting! kirakira*** With smaller needles CO 42 st on three DPNs, 14 stitches on each needle join in the r...
kirakira (sparkling) for my girl. Made as a surprise, back in October last year, received with great happiness - and a wish for more... a cape, wristwarmers... you cant have too much sparkle in your ...
I should have expected that my broken camera was going to come back to me sooner than I could even start posting pictures I have been taking over the last year but never managed to share with you... ...
Just a few glimpses of our first day of 2011. We keep doing the same year after yearafter year... I really do love this tradition! 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit and supposed to be a happy one accord...
Last day of 2010. Happy New Year!!!
30. Just one more day of 2010. What an awfully quick year. Must think of a way to make time (or me?) slow down next year, every single day for at least a moment. To really be in that day...
The approaching new year is effecting our trash pickup schedule.
Taking the Blue Line.
I am going to take a taxi this evening. Wish me luck to have found a 28 before that!
Not much to say... missed two days again. Times flying. I was working hard on getting all those dishes done that were piling up over Christmas. And knitting a bit and renovating a doll house that nee...
Guess... :)
Frohe Weihnachten, メリークリスマス, Merry Chris...
All gifts wrapped but one... urgent knitting underway, a guys hat to be finished. Watching Love Actually meanwhile - Christmas Is All Around.

By the sea.
In the country.
On my way home today...just what I needed.
18 seconds to make you beautiful. Concealer applied on the taken photo. Must go there ;)
