I feel like I'm knitting a sweater....

Yea,I do,a sweater.And a double layer one.Seriously,I just went through increase round,not only did I have a double the number of stitches I should have (which is 250 now) the whole round was k 2 kfb 1,now you do the math but I think it is at least 300 stitches.And it is a moebius!!!Which means knitted inside and outside in one continuous flow.So yea,if I wanted it could be quite a fancy sweater,but:
a)I don't have enough yarn
b)It is not very economical because I'm still growing (I grew 5 cm this summer)
c)I'm not going to waste my time knitting this for another person which probably wouldn't wear it or appreciate it.
d)you do a thin yarn double layer sweater moebius knitted on two circular needles if you dare and I'll raise you a monument (I would appreciate it if you don't get this literally).
So it's staying as a bowl.And this is how it would look like if it was a sweater (I persuaded my sister to model at 10:30 pm,lol):
I can't really find a right angle  to show evrything as it really is (and as it is a stockinette stitch it is curling on the edge).
Winter is coming and Fleki's summer "clothes" are starting to fall of.Good for me as a spinner,not so good for me when I'm feeding him 'cause hair is flying everywhere and is getting in my nose (which tickles,a lot).
Oh the cuteness.
Imagine these flying around your house everywhere your bunny goes.
I could not resist and fingerspun it on the spot.

And a close up!So fuzzy and soft...
Actually,Fleki didn't have so much black fur on the back when we adopted him.He just had a black stripe and some little spots around it,also the little hair on his head was gray(if I remember right).My mother finds more and more white hair on her head every year and I find more and more black hair on my bunny.I noticed some white fur on his hind leg starting to grey,I could bet that he would have some black fur there next year.

Yesterday was a rainy day.I came home,my socks soaking wet.I put them to dry(not outside of course) and pulled out my thick bunny socks!Oh the glory!I heard rainy days were happy days for spinners but I haven't spun one cm,I was to lazy to untangle that mess of the centerpull ball I plyed from.


The second from the left it is.
 We have a crazy plant at our home.I'm not really sure how to say it in English,but you know the plant that haves roots in the ground and then climbs on other trees barks in attempt to get more sun,but not a parasite,usually found in forests.Well ours is crazy,last month it tried to get higher by wrapping itself first around the window knob and then around the thing you adjust the window blinders with.We didn't dare move it away because we were scared we might hurt it.But eventually we had to.But now he goes into action again.

Seee?
         


  Today was also the Croatian Independence Day,but today was also the International Day Of Nature disasters.We heard it on the radio in the car,we were laughing like crazy.Like: "We're really a natural disaster and nothing can stop us,lol!".
Which reminded me of this crazy man yogurt parody in which it says (translated to english):"We,psychologists with fat eyebrows think that those are sick people who have to be treated.There are also known cases of lamp man,(now shows some of our politicians) in my work I have met people fikuses (I think that means plant),people elemental disaster and even people women!"I was rolling on the floor from laughter while watching this.


Anyway,HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY ALL CROATS OUT THERE!!!

  1. The plant is ivy, though I can't tell what kind of ivy it is.
