Thelonious sock number two, almost done.
I've gotten more You make my day -awards! I’m very honored and humbled – thank you all so much! I had already decided not to tag anyone in particular, because, like everyone else, I read hundreds of great blogs and it would be very hard to pick just ten. But then I started thinking about how happy these awards have made me, so I decided to make my list after all. Here goes:
We saw some blue sky today! Lovely.

I consider Mari my knitting twin: every single thing on her FO list could be on mine too. In addition to great taste in knitting patterns, she is also a fellow Nancy Bush fan club member. Perfect.
Annu is the kind of knitter I wish I could be some day. Lots of lovely original patterns, enough for a knitting book, I think. And what a lovely book it would be, because her photos are just as beautiful as her knitting.

Amazing amount of gorgeous sweaters, and everything else too. Just check out her 2007 FO's. I know I said it already, but: amazing.
Pikku-Kettu Knits
Incredients for a great blog: charming blog name (Pikku-Kettu means Little-Fox), gorgeous knitting, beautiful photography, fluent writing, and a cute dog. And lots of socks!
No snow or ice will stop us if we want to ride our bike. That's my old bike, btw.

Well. You know. No need to make the man embarrassed.

If Mari is my twin, Kathy is my opposite. She is a knitting genius, her perseverence and skill have left me speechless many times. Remember Mountainash? Or Grumpeque? Yeah, not for the faint of heart. And definitely not for the lazy and comfort-loving knitters amongst us. Ahem.
Great projects, beautiful photos and such a delightful way of writing, Elli always makes me smile. Also, the Herringbone Mittens with Poms are the cutest mittens in the world.
As an eternal pessimist I really enjoy reading Lauren's blog. Her blog makes me happy – it's nice to know that there are people like her, who make the world a better place.
I always think Julia as a knitting movie star. She certainly looks like one, and she lives in California! Well, I think she does, and she might be a movie star too for what I know. These are just my fancies, mind you. I love the name of her blog (wouldn't it make a great movie title?), but for me her knitting is always filled with sun and warmth and happiness.
I guess that's it. Ladies and Jared, thank you for making my day each and every time you post.
Bye for now, see you next week!

Huh hei, mihin seuraan mä oon päässyt! Kiitos tuhannesti...mä oon IHAN TOTAALISEN häkeltynyt. Paljon ihania, lähes ammattilaisia, ja minä. Hihii...Kiitos kiitos.
Hyvänneuleentien linkki on rikki (ihmettelin kovasti, kun se jostain kumman syystä heitti minut wikipedian http:n määritelmään). Anteeksi tämmöinen virheilmoituskommentti, mutten nyt keksi mitään muutakaan kommentoitavaa. :)
Thanks so much!!! You and Mari are my favorite Finnish knitters ever! Keep up the colorful projects, and the Nancy Bush socks, of course!
Awww, that is so sweet Terhi. I love your blog, too. There are a handful of bloggers whose lives I'd like to peek into, and yours is one - you seem so stylish, yet down to earth and serene. Your project choices are always exquisite. I'm honored to be included in such an amazing group of knitter/photographers.
Thank you for the links to some of your faveourite blogs, I shall enjoy looking at them! Isn't it great when your children use your things from childhood. I had a rocking horse that my son loved!
Ooh, kiitos, Terhi. (punastelee). Jos tekisin samanlaisen listan, olisit aivan kärjessä! :-)
(Enpä ole pitkään aikaan neulonut Nancyn ohjeita, pitäisi varmaan taas tarttua niihin!)
Kiitos Terhi, olen enemmän kuin otettu! Olet esikuvani :-) Blogisi on ensimmäinen käsityöblogi, jota aloin v. 2005 säännöllisesti seurata ja yhä seuraan odottaen mielenkiinnolla ja innolla uutta päivitystä. Olet huippu, blogisi on huippu!
Thanks! You're such a sweetheart to say such nice things about all of us. Yours is a blog I always love to read too. I know I can always count on you for gorgeous (and often brilliant green) knitting!
Kiitos! Sie oot miun idoli. ;)
