		<title>Violetti Vaapukka and Alpakkapolku</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In Ulla 2/2009 (released in July) there were two patterns that immidiately caught my eye.
The first one was Vaapukka by Kristel Nyberg. I happened to have five skeins (à 50 g) of Novita Bambu I had bought in a sale.
Novita Bambu is 68% bamboo and 32% cotton, very soft and lovely to knit, unless you [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Christmas time!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The week before Christmas have been busy, as tradition goes. A number of FO&#8217;s &#8211; some knitted, some sewn, some jewellery &#8211; but no time to present them. Hopefully the holidays will give me a chance to take some photos.
My Christmas card this year says, roughly translated: &#8220;Come with haste, Christmas of gold; do arrive, [...]]]></description>

		<title>23 days to go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This year, I&#8217;m looking for the Christmas spirit through photos. Some are old, some are new &#8211; some are self-explanatory, some might seemingly have no relation to Christmas.
Here you go: Christmas Calendar 2009. A new photo (some even handicraft-related) every day until Boxing Day.

		<title>Ready, set: Pikkuveli-cardi</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been test knitting a cardi for kid by Villapeikko, and now I&#8217;m proud to announce that it&#8217;s finished. And I mean really finished, all ends of yarn and buttons and all, not just 95% finished. (In fact, I&#8217;ve been almost there for over a week now, but due to numerous tasks I had last [...]]]></description>

		<title>Earrings in lottery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our local entrepreneur association is organizing a lottery before Christmas in a local shopping centre. Thought that giving a few earrings as lottery prices would be a nice way to contribute.
Wanted to give something in sterling silver, because when won in lottery, I&#8217;d hate that the recipient&#8217;s ears were too sensitive for other metals. Unfortunately [...]]]></description>

		<title>Third one of a kind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks back, I knitted two caps of Novita Puro for kids.
Needed a quick and easy project for last Thursday &#8211; I had an afternoon of lectures to attend to. Decided to make yet another cap of Novita Puro, this time the yarn colourway was &#8220;Iltanuotio&#8221;.

There were some nice colours in that yarn, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>Making 95% UFOs into FOs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been in a process of finishing 95% UFOs. Glad to announce that I&#8217;m almost there: I have three items crossed off the to-do list.
In August 2008 I started knitting these wrist warmers. Found a &#8220;fake cable&#8221;, which requires no cable needle, in a pattern book and adapted it.
First made wrist warmers for myself.

The wrist [...]]]></description>

		<title>A week of test knitting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw Villapeikko&#8217;s Pikkuveli-cardi in her blog and fell in love with it right on. Villapeikko intended to make a pattern of this cardi, and I voluntered to test knit.
Earlier I posted a few pictures of yarn bought from Secretwool. The yarn &#8211; Cascade 220 Wool, 100 % Peruvian wool &#8211; was bought for this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Showstopper Sagittaria</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This shawl caught my eye right on. I had never knitted a triangular shawl starting in the middle of the neck, let alone casting the knitting from some crochet stitches. Vilma Vuori&#8217;s Sagittaria was bit of a challenge.

I found the pattern relatively straight forward, once I got the hang of it. The pattern of the [...]]]></description>
