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.

Christening

Christopher's Christening...

The God mother is my highschool friend... The cousing who would have been the god-mother cancelled at the last moment. It was Christopher's wish we ask my lifelong friend, and she was happy to take teh responsibility, even at such a short notice. Thank you my friend.

Better late than never

Knitting pattern/lesson on the Barkafonal's site.

It is only in Hungarian (for now at least), but there are a ton of pictures...

It always feels a bit strange, almost surreal to see my stuff somewhere else...but all the while... it is soooo exciting.

At the end of winter when everything was cold and dark, I felt I needed some light and color in my life... It is well known I cannot stand black, and I love colors. Every colors. OK, I have my favorites, but that time I wanted all colors. So I dived into my fiber stash, and I found....

Umm, yeah. I have a thing for fiber, just as much for yarn. And as it is shown, I also have a thing for rainbow colored stuff...I picked the smallest and simplest braid...

About 60 gramms pure merino. Turned into 280 meters of sockweight. Navajo plied.

Now, only if my mood/life would get so colorful...
