Glorious Sunday


Hello everybody!

Have you been sleeping well? Hope so :)

I went out with Gipsy this morning under a sun that could be an august sun. Only the leaves reminded that we are approching winter!

It's almost scary how warm it is outside... Global warming?!

I wanted to talk about university a bit, as you know, I'm in geoscience faculty, option geography. I really like it! Except for the maths bit. And the cartography! But I love Ressources & Population, Water Cycle, Territorial systems etc...

There are so many new feelings, new surroundings, new methods to take in, it's really exciting! But also exhausting! Starting 5th week tomorrow and I still haven't got a routine.

And then... only 9 weeks to go and then... the first exams. I can't understand where time has gone!

So well... Here I am on a glorious sunday, trying to see where the hell time passed.

And for the crochet.... Weeble is getting on, not so fast because I'm having projects in parallel, I did a shawl for the mother of a friend (Christmas present), I'm getting paid for the work, nice so I can get some yarn of the money! And I've started a new scarf that turns out great!

But all those projects and the Big Slurp for the Stella Shawl will have to wait for... well... until I've got some more time!


Have a great sunday!

Weeble!



Here are some pictures, at last, of the Ripple Blanket,
In other words... called Weeble! ... Yes... Wee Blanket... Weeble... I love it!
And I love rippling now that I have, at last, understood how to do it!

Can't wait to stick my cold feet under it after a long day in university, a nice shower and then... Weeble and I, infront of the TV. I just CANT wait!

So... here Weeble comes!

You might remember one of my first articles about making an orgy-like yarn buying at Tricolaine in Carouge...
Well, I got this yarn, a heavenly Debbie Bliss yarn, soft, warm, not fussy.


Welllllllll


Nowwwwwww



It has almost transformed totally in a, like magic, blanket.



Let's not wait any longer!
























I so hope you like it!

The funniest is that I started working on it (well trying at least, coudn't get the pattern right at that moment) 5 days before Lucy from Attic24 announced her Ripple Blanket, and even more important, the reason why she was making it, her baby!

So yes, you have understood that it is Attic24's design ;)

And now, well... my first week at university! I love the subject (geography that is), it takes some time to adjust to the independance etc... And there is some horrible, heart breaking, achy maths to do too. Crap and double bollocks in my opinion! (why the hell does maths exist in fact?)

But well... otherwise the weather has definitely switched to automn even thow, the sky is blue and the sun shines warmly, one can walk around in a skirt and a top, but the wind is a lot cooler and the air is not as searingly hot.

BUT! In 6 days (next Friday!) it's my birthday...so the automny thing doesn't matter just yet. In seven days it will, because then it isn't as interesting any more.. You know, observing the weather changes, you know the B-day comes nearer and nearer... Well after that... it's just a long way to go in cold and dark days. Before Christmas ;)


I'm off, going shopping some yarn (yay!) and then working on my maths!

Have a wonderful weekend!

See you Around the hook!
