Nyt kun kevät on kauniimillaan, meillä on ollut pari oikein kaunista kevätpäivää tällä viikolla, saan kahdet lapaset valmiiksi. Ne saa nyt odotella syksyä ennekuin ne tulee käyttöön (toivon mukaan ainakin). Ensiksi valmistui lehtimaja-lapaset. Ne oli tosi kivat neuloa ja pidän tästä yksinkertaisesta lehtikuviosta. Ainoa mikä minua harmittaa on että suusta tuli liian lyhyt. Se peittää hädin tuskin ranne-patin. Pitää kai olla takissa pitkät hihat niin että ranteet ei palellu. Minusta se peukaonlisäykset oli hiemna kummaliset koska ne silmukat sai sitten olla mukana peukaloaukon jälkeen , mutta olen nyt oppinut että täma on aika tavallista Selbu-tyylisissä lapasissa.
Now when spring finally arrives, we have had some wonderful days this week, I cast off two pairs of mittens. They have to wait for the fall, don’t think I’ll be using them now (hopefully not…). The first pair off the needles were the arbor mittens. They were really fun to knit and I adore this simple leaf-pattern. The only thing that grieves me is that the cuff is very short, it hardly goes over that bump you have on the wrist. I guess I need to find a jacket with extra long sleeves to keep the wrists warm. Initially I thought that the thumb gusset were strange since you kept the increased stitches an knitted on to the top, but now I have learned that this is common for Selbu-mittens.

Malli/pattern: Berceau by Maria Olsson Lanka/yarn: valkoinen/white Navia Duo (25g) and vihreä/green Isager Highland yarn (neuloin kahdella langalla/knitted with two strands 26 g)
Feelis: Lyhyt, Leveä, Lämmin ja IHANA! Wide, Warm, Short and WONDERFUL! Toisen parin aloin jo huhtikuussa mutta kun olin peukaloa vailla totesin että ne ovat liian tiukat jag lyhyet (mutta varsi on taas turhankin pitkä) ollakseen hyvät. Siinä hävisi peukalo-inspiraatio ihan noin vain. Onneksi kummitytöllä on sirot kädet ja sain sisun avulla lapaset valmiiksi.
The second pair was casted on in April but when I had the thumbs left I realized that they were too narrow and too short ( but the cuff was longer that one could wish for) to be comfortable. So the inspiration to knit thumbs disappeared just likes that. Luckily my good-daughter has got very neat hands so with the help of the famous finish sisu the mittens got the thumbs.
Malli/pattern: Drops 143-32 Rainbow Mitts
Lanka/yarn: Drops Fabel (56g)
Feelis: Harmitta, olisin halunnut nämä itselleni mutta saan kai ilota että niille kuitenkin löytyy käyttöä. Annoying, I so much wanted to have these myself, but I have to try to find the happiness of giving.
