knitting and stuff

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.
