Today I made a Neckwarmer. I was surprised it only took me one and a half hours, but the wool is very thick, so…
It was the same wool which I used for my jumper. Still got a lot left from it and turning it into Neckwarmers is a good solution.
This one is a bit tighter than I thought it would be, but the next one will be wider. And it has a large check pattern, but you can’t see it on the photograph.

It’s 1 o’clock in the morning, I cannot sleep, so I tag myself.
Got this from the Hedgefairy’s blog. (of who I sometimes think she’s my only reader ^^)
1. What’s your favourite fairy tale?
- If I could only remember its name… it’s an irish fairy tale.
A woman returns home very lately and while she walks back to her house she sees a black goat sitting on a wall. She gets frightend and hurries on, but the animal chases her. Then the goat jumps on the woman’s back and hangs there. the woman has to carry all its weight, which is extremly heavy and she nearly can’t move from the weight. She carries on and with her last strength makes it to her doorstep and crosses herself, which makes the goat disappear (who was the devil). Her folks are suprised that the woman comes home so late and even more they wonder about her crooked back.
Now I remember… the title was something like “The crooked woman” or “why the old woman has a crooked back”.
2. Have you ever been on stage? Theatrical or musical?
- Hehe, yes, as a little child I played in two stage plays at school. And I had several performances with choirs, last performance is just a few months back.
3. If you could have choosen your own first name, what would it be?
- Sorcha. Celtic. means radiant or bright. Though I’m happy with my current name, thank you. :)
4. Water, fire, earth, air: In which order are they in your person, most present first?
- 1. Water. I weep easily.
2. Fire. I’m totally attracted by fire, fireworks, tealight, camp fire etc.
3. Earth. It’s better to be on the ground than…
4. Air. ….being up in the air. Humans weren’t build for flying.
5. What’s your favourite drink in this hot summer.
- Well, the hot summer is luckily over, but my fav drink was water and coke.
6. What’s your favourite ice cream flavour.
- Usually I’d say Vanilla and Chocolate, but now there is this new flavour “white chocolate”, It’s like Vanilla and Chocolate got a child!
7. Three favourite words (any language)?
- That’s tricky… I like words and names without i’s… Moos (ger), Mond/Moon (ger/eng), Moor (ger/eng).
8. If you found a treasure chest, what would it contain?
- Currently I hope all b.p.r.d. comics, starting from the issues “the warning”. I absolutely love this series and want to know how it continues. And a lot of wonderful wool should be in it, that would be great! But I guess it would unfortunately be a simple empty chest, containing nothing at all.
Now you know a lot about me and can use all this against me. (or you have too much money and send me the b.p.r.d. comics :D )
And now I should come up with 8 questions, but I don’t know who to tag… so If you like to you can do the one from the Hedgefairy. :)
Hope to get some sleep now. Nachti!
