Yesterday's Earth Hour has been a big thing all over the world. That's so great! Here's picture from our appartment from that hour. 
Then there's picture from Jaakko jumping to our newly covered blankets and pillows. I love those moomin pillowcases (from Finlayson). Especially the one with old school moomin (that's MINE).
Mikkeli's craft center had a great opening from last wednesday to friday after renovations. And we went to wander and wonder with my friend. The place is now light and airy. There were
Have a nice week!
I had a day off today and I spent it by studying, knitting and watching my new (new in Finland) favourite TV-series, Pushing Daisies. I just can't help loving it! It's a fairy tale for grown ups. It has a really refreshing aspect of looking life, death and funny dialog and crooked humor. The dresses and settings are made with care, love and imagination. And what's most important. The series is really disconnected from reality. It's relaxing!
Yesterday we made fruit salad with Jaakko. My favourites are kiwi and cherries and ofcource the whipped cream ;) I like the plate too (alltough I don't usually like light blue at all - yh!). I found it drifting. Someday I would like to have a big open cabinet for all my different drifted plates and mugs (my precious)!
Then I made this card for my friend, whose birthday is coming. It's a mug...
...or a handbag as my Jaakko so imaginatively pointed out. And on my hand you can see (and admire) a mitten to be.. slightly incomplete. The yarn I'm using is so darn fine I propably never finnish, so better to take picture now :D No, I'm just kidding! The yarn is really nice (Drops Alpaca...so it's 100% alpaca and sooo soft). I bought it last summer while wisiting my card-receiving friend at Helsinki.
I also "accidentally" napped for a few hours during the day, and that is not good...I'm not sleepy at all :( I should've gone to bed an hour ago (the time here is 23.23)! At least...
Sometimes I feel like my mind is going to explode, beacause the world I live in is so incredible! This form of street art, for example, is awesome! Some people like us fellow-humans so much they go trough the trouble of making knit graffiti. 
HIH! At first I felt this must be the work of not-so-well-balanced-persons, 
BUT then I realized, that this is really beautifull, soft and cosy form of art. And I bet it makes people smile and to feel that the world is not so evil place as it sometimes feels!
Have a nice weekend, I'll be at work tonight and all day tomorrow. I'll be dreaming about sun, travelling, summer, swimming in lake and freedom...
Today was REALLY great! The sun was shining, I went jogging and I have finished my hat, scarf and a neckband for Tahvo. Also I had friends for coffee and it always makes me more lively (coffee also makes me over energetic). And sometimes I just feel love, love love...Yessssh....Now is a good time to go forward to the pictures ;)
Close up from my little prince, hah! 
The cap was really easy to do, it's a square and it looks like I have little cat's ears. I used Novita's Teddy for yarn. 
Aren't we a handsome couple ;)
Here's my catch
This dress I vould make with shoulderstraps, but I like the idea really much!! 
Is this the happiest hippy-shirt for a newborn. HIH! 
I would like to do only the sleeves...Not the text on the shirt that says "lust for knitting" or something like that.
The Finnish knit-book "Puikoissa" was my favourite and the pictures above are from that book. They are rellay beautifull and colourfull! There were other nice designs too,but these are the ones I would like to make myself. Mostly the striped cardigan above. There is something that pleases my eye. It's not too neat maybe? I like the look of "always right" as used too on the sweater beneath.
This is the only design I would like to knit from the stitching bitch book. I like this picture too (Maybe because I like dogs, colour red and striped socks :) ?)
Then a very nice idea how to use little round lace doilies!
Doesnt that girl look ever so comfy with that overall. I like it!
These jeans are so intelligently decorated!!!
It's a good thing that many web-pages rely on this same idea! (Like Hel looks) It always warms my heart to see street-dressing. It's so lively and comes in so many different ages, colours and sizes. This kind of diversity seldom flowers on the pages of the "real" fashion magazines, that too often REALLY are nothing but expensive adds.
