A rainy sunday afternoon...

Its summer, but the weather is cold and rainy around here for weeks now... There was nothing much to do...  I wanted to drag Christopher away from the computer, so I dug out the only pair of knitting needles I have from my mom...

Here is, what he achieved (picture by the knitting boy himself :-)...gonna be a scarf for his stuffed Piglet :-) Just a bit more practive and he is going to knit his own first scarf.

BTW as I was picking up stuff around the flat, I found this much knitting on the go... I mean these are (by far) not all my projects on teh needles, these are the ones lying around that I am actually working on...

And believe it or not, I also have this much finished items to show you... Just wait for the sun come out enough to make some halfway decent photos...

Some spinning

The girl ofthe Barkafonal store asked if I would spin the wool she bought at Etsy... It was lovely, handdyed merino-silk...so why not? She didn't want it too thin, so it is about fingering weight...

And this is what is on the wheel now. 100 gramms of wensleydale...

Visegrád

Th eweekend was brutally hot, but since this year will be one, yet again when I will not be able to go on vacation, or spend longer time with Christopher I decided on shorter weekend programs.
This week the "palace fair at Visegrad" the anciend king's palace was on our plate.

We've met with my spinning friend, Adrienne, and finally had a good talk, and despite of the heat we even spun a little toogether.

Christopher had fun...sat on a real horse for teh first time of his life...

Had a hand at being a blacksmith

I even ended up with a present. Adrienn gave me this necklace with a dolphin pendant (to keep company of the one I always have on me)

And Christopher was practicing his modell-photographer skills

One year, and (more or less) regular programming...

Anybody here?? helllloooo??? I haven't posted in such a long time, it makes me wonder if there is...

Fist of all, thank you for all, who worried, and knowing what happened, and knowing the fact that I only shut up here if there is something wrong,
The past year was one of the most difficult ones in my life, in fact there were days I think of the darkests ones. I will not bore you with details, those who were "with me" (even if "only" virtually) heard more than enough of it. Let me just thank you for your patiente and endurance with me, I KNOW I was not a good company, and I can onl yhope I can give back just a tiny bit some day.
The important thing, that it seems the bad has ended now, life can go on as normal, and I will not have nervous breakdown like crying fits at sunday nights...

Admittedly, I did not knit or spin too much, but there will be some stuff to show you all.
