Tallinn in September 2010

I celebrated my B'day in Tallinn with a really good friend. It was so relaxing and fun. We spent few hours in the Beauty Salon and I can strongly recommend the Ilukeskus. The spa-pedicure was divine!

A little shopping, good food and sparkling wine... The perfecty recipe for ladies short break in Tallinn.

The view from my hotel room. 8 am on Sat 25th of Sep 2010.



This is the best restaurant I know in Tallinn! I really recommend this one! Traditional Estonian food.

The funny thing is that I did not buy any yarn! I didn't even go to a yarn store. I did buy a knitted dress and a scarf and books but no yarn.

Long time no see...

It's been a while... Okay, it's been too long since my last post. I'll try to fix that now.

I actually spent a knit-free summer. Well, almost. I think I knitted few rows of my cardigan and few rows of DS's jersey. But I didn't buy any yarn at all. Until this Monday. I saw this beautiful bamboo skein and I just had to buy it. So you could say that I'm back *lol* I started new Baktus with that bamboo yarn, should be nice and soft. Me like!

I've got too many ufo's atm, so I need to get those done asap. I've got so many plans, but I've put those on hold for a while. I'm always starting new projects and then I have these bags everywhere with ufo's in them. I'm trying to put a stop to this bad habit. Finish what you start, right?

Actually I was planning to do quite a bit of knitting this summer but it was way too hot in Finland. If it's + 35 degrees, you just do not want to knit. So I'm really excited about fall, I just love to knit again. Yay!

Me at work in July... It was so hot!
