lacelappen revontuli

That was the Revontuli shawl 2 days ago. Or was it 3? precisely this photo was taken on saturday, four days ago. In the meantime the color of the yarn has changed to a dark shade of green. This is my handspun yarn! Yay!
I'm knitting the first ball and spinning the second. I'm nearly done with plying the second ball. After that I can spin the third, and hopefully that will be all I need for the shawl.
The pattern is available for free here in Finnish, there is also a pdf-file in english and german, which can be downloaded from ravelry. But you need to be a ravelry user to see them.

But today, I didn't knit anything. I cleared my cutting table with the cutting mat from all spinning fiber, spindles, knitting patterns and rubbish and made some quilt blocks. On my womens' mailing list we are making blocks for a baby quilt, and I'm a little bit behind, the deadline for sending the finished blocks was beginning of may. But now they are done, just in time and I can still send them out. They are 16'' blocks, after the Midget Blocks I'm really confused, I feel like I'm sewing sails or tents. Those pieces look so big to me.
