Thank you, I think it's a compliment if you want to link this page. Hmm. Languages. Finnish is my mother tongue and Swedish is the second official language in Finland (but I've realised that my Swedish skills are going downhill). English is ok but far from perfect. Then I have a more or less passive knowledge of German, French and Dutch - I read them, write a little bit but can't describe my feelings or moods in those languages. Some Italian, basic Russian. No Japanese. Yet ;-)
Knitting has come to me quite naturally. Our whole family does something with their hands (knitting, crocheting, cross stitching), even my father has knitted himself mittens when he was only a boy. At the moment I'm really lucky, living in Central Europe and having a relatively easy access to German, French and British yarns. And that shows in my flat. I really enjoy all the different colours and the structures of the yarns and am always trying some new stuff, techniques, patterns. And this may sound like a cliché, but for me knitting is a journey, you never know what you're going to encounter on the way. Love the experience; whether I finish a garment or not is irrelevant.
