Many nice ships, briggs, and similar large vessels coated the quayside of Stockholm. It was crowded. Tall-ships race has a visit, and it was amazing with all the masts and sails. Hubby said yesterday with a sigh, that it was UK-India that plaed cricket (not oz, as a wrongly mentioned) Sorry, Im that just explaines how much Im into it. Its a Test match and the wet english are getting whipped bad. In Stockholm city (with old town and castle in backdrop) was showers and sunny in a quick mix, rainbows time. Knit-lab, as one of the few sunday open knitshops here was passed when looking for a parking spot- but Im not up for a knit-cafe. Im saving up to handle 3 (4) days of knitting meeting (Stickstämma) in Leksand. It is a nice place to meet other knitting maniacs. Anyhow. I have started to shop for the tea-cup swap.
A mug - and some local mixed tea.... hmmm and what yarn now... I need a special shopping day tomorrow for that - NK only had Rowan and Schachmeyer- nothing Scandinavian. So... what a great excuse. Or - a rummage in my yarnroom maybe? That is much harder. I have plans for almost everything. Im doing nothing and Im so tired. Got my 10000 steps today at least. And some great pictures. And yes dear H. I know, of course I will knit them together - I follow Vivian H.'s Domino-knitting advise. This was just the first (bottom) row below. Also, I joined the
Bohus Knitting KAL. Of course. Im a Bohus sweater collector. I love them. And "the Wildapple" just arrived. Looks great.

Love the photos of the tall ships. They came to our town many, many years ago.
ReplyDeleteI got to see the tall ships in Miami one time--can you imagine living on one? I love the Sea Silk and all those lovely blue yarns. Cheers!
