Most of them I knitted in Switzerland and I wished many a cold evening that they were ready. But no, finishing happened when it was like an oven and it was even too hot for making a good picture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Star gave me permission to translate the pattern for the Yahoo Sokkenbreigroep, where they also want to knit mitts and mittens. I had some trouble with the translation of &#8216;Sleekit&#8217;, but suddenly I came across the word &#8216;sjijk&#8217;. And that&#8217;s what they are called now: Sjijke Mitaines (try your Amsterdam tongue). Mitaines have a long history as you can find on this beautiful <a title=\"Accessorize!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rijksmuseum.nl\/formats\/accessoires\/\" target=\"_blank\">website by the Rijksmuseum<\/a>. I love them! They are sophisticated and practical at the same time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"Lemonmellowyellow by yvonnep, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yvonnep\/3867572525\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"mellow lemon yellow\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2649\/3867572525_ef924bc649_m.jpg\" alt=\"Lemonmellowyellow\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Work is busy. Very busy. That&#8217;s why I enjoy my free time more than ever. And there is a lot that makes me glad. I went to an evening with Nancy Bush. This was so wonderful. That&#8217;s why I can&#8217;t wait to start the mystery sock Nancy designed. It&#8217;s the september\/october project by <a title=\"SKA\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/groups\/sock-knitters-anonymous\" target=\"_blank\">Sock Knitter&#8217;s Anonymous <\/a>[Ravelry link] and the mystery sock must be knitted in yellow (not really my favourite colour). I was so lucky to find this lemon yellow at <a title=\"Moonwise shop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moonwise.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\">Moonwise<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">And there is more: in two weeks <a title=\"Lies on knitting\" href=\"http:\/\/lies.typepad.com\/knitting\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lies <\/a>and I will leave for London to the <a title=\"I knit weekender\" href=\"http:\/\/www.iknit.org.uk\/iknitweekender.html\" target=\"_blank\">I Knit weekend<\/a>.
