Together with our neighbours Antonia and I went to Savognin, a little village in the Grisons alps. It had been a while since we were on skis, but it all worked out fine.<br />

I only took my camera to the slope only once, it's not super comfortable on the chairlifts and I was a bit scared to fall with it and either break the camera or my back (both didn't happen fortunately). We had a stunning week in the snow and I enjoyed skiing so much. I don't know if the skis I rented were particularly good but I felt amazing speeding down the snow again and again.Corinnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10837817690239541173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207181175794045491.post-66525528562514071192019-02-24T08:53:00.001+01:002019-02-24T08:55:20.027+01:00Feldis It's already been a while but I started my year with a slightly longer yoga weekend in Feldis. This time I already left the grey city of Zürich on Thursday because the retreat started on Thursday evening with one of my favourite ways of doing yoga - a joint session between Katharina and Pascal Gamboni, a local singer who accompanies the yoga with his guitar and voice.<br />
<br />
I shared my room with Eveline and thanks to her we had the luxury of our own bath and a stunning view over the snow and the mountains.<br />

On Friday we started with an early medidation session and then 2 more hours of yoga. Then we had time to relax or to go outside and enjoy the snow and the blue sky. Of course we chose the second option, it was too beautiful outside to even consider staying in.<br />
<br />
We took the chairlift up to Mutta and there we took the round trail which gave us so many amazing views to capture. We also walked down along the toboggan trail back to Feldis and I wished we'd have brought our sledges.<br />

On Saturday the weather had changed and it was snowing quite heavily. We took it slowly in the morning but then I really needed to be outside, so I took a sledge and took the chairlift up the mountains all by myself. It was pretty adventurous, especially because I could barely find the trail in the fog but I felt so good to be outside.<br />

Last year I read <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.com/2017/12/my-books-2017.html">60 books</a>, in 2016 I read <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2016/12/my-books-2016.html">69 books</a>, in 2015 I read<a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2015/12/my-books-in-2015.html"> 73 books</a>, in 2014 I read <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2014/12/my-books-in-2014.html">69 book.</a> <br />
<br />
I set my reading goal to 52 books again but I reached that number already in the middle of the year. I am not sure why I read so much. I knit less, I had two weeks of extra holidays, I was on sick leave for two weeks in June, maybe those are all factors that helped. I never had a baisse all year, I basically kept reading all year long and when I started a good book I often finished it within a day or two.<br />

Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel<br />

I loved diving into different lives, travelling along with interesting people and falling in love with handsome strangers ;-)Corinnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10837817690239541173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207181175794045491.post-75864868707109757352018-11-08T16:25:00.000+01:002018-11-08T16:25:37.822+01:00Beautiful fallLife's been very busy the last few weeks. Ever since school started I had a lot of parent teacher meetings and I'm in the middle of the teacher evaluation we have every four years, which means a few visits in the class room and quite a lot of nerve racking while preparing the perfect lesson that will also work ;-)<br />

So I was very happy to get an extra free day today. All our students were off to have a look at a profession, most went with either their mother or their father, but there were also other possibilites to spend this Zukunftstag (future day). This gave us a whole day of freedom.<br />

I decided to go for a walk through the woods before heading to school (there is always enough stuff to be done even without students) It was such a great way to spend a bit of time, the colours were amazing and the sun was out. There were quite a few other walkers, mostly older people with dogs. I wished I could do that more often...<br />

We only spent 45 minutes on the water and sadly there wasn't any space outdoors but it was still fun to see Naples disappear behind us.<br />

In Sorrento we took the local bus, got off it too early so we had to walk along the coast with our suitcases for about 30 minutes (we could have waited for the next bus, but that didn't seem interesting enough. Still we were very happy to see our hotel for the next few days, it was quite hot and also the location was amazing.<br />

From our room we could enjoy the sea and the view to Capri all day long and in the evenings we watched these stunning sunsets. We also went swimming in the pool and just relaxed. I tried to hike but I guess it's not an Italian concept, people in their cars were looking rather puzzled when they tried not to run me down while I was walking along the road.<br />

On our last day at the coast we booked a boat trip to the Amalfi Coast. The guy at reception told us to go for the more expensive but also more exclusive prestige tour and he was so right. We spent the day on this small yacht with five Canadians, one guy from Belgium and one from Spain together with two Italian captains/tour guide and it was the best day of the whole trip.<br />

In the beginning I was a bit scared that I'd get seasick because the sea was quite rough and we also got really wet, but it was ok. We had a break in Amalfi and another one a bit later in Positano. Both of these places are very cute, steeply built into the rocks but also very touristy and busy. It was nice to visit but frankly the best part was to hop back on our small, private boat and drive off again. <br />

We also had the chance to go swimming twice and the sea was so refreshing and just before we got back we had a final break for a home made limoncello. Yannick didn't actually realize that the limoncello is actually an aperitivo but he had fun drinking it anways. These four days next to the sea felt like the best way to spend a few days and I am super glad we went to the lovely Delfino hotel.<br />

I stumbled upon Naples and it didn't take long to make up my mind and book two flights.<br />

We splurged on front row seats which gave us speedy boarding (I felt so weird boarding first) and quite a bit of leg room. After less than two hours we touched down in Italy (fortunately we didn't actually fly to Nepal which is what Yannick was expecting - I have no idea what they teach those kids in Geography ;-)<br />

We were picked up by our B&B hostess at the airport and learnt right away that traffic rules are for tourists. In Naples nobody follows them, nobody don't wear seat belts, traffic lights are mostly ignored, you just have to dive into the middle of the cars to cross the street and it's totally common for four people to be on the same tiny vespa, everybody without helmets.<br />

I found getting around quite tiring but also very interesting. The contrast between the run down houses, the badly kept up streets, the garbage and on the other hand all these amazing super old buildings was stunning.<br />

It was also much warmer than I expected, it felt like another bit of summer with high temperatures up to 30 degrees. We took it slowly and had lots of down time in your B&B room and quite a few coffees and ice creams in between.<br />

We stayed for two nights in Naples, then we left for four nights the <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.com/2018/10/massa-lubrense-sorrento-coast.html">Sorrento Coast</a> and came back afterwards for one more day in Naples because our flight back left super early the next day. I am so glad that I felt confident enough to go away, it was so worth it.<br />

I was happy to spend time with Eveline, who I'd met it Formentera in Spring, to enjoy the light and the air of the alps and to just be outside for a few hours.<br />

<a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2018/02/london.html">After all</a>
I did get a little bit of winter magic right before the winter holidays
are over. Yesterday I went to the mountains together with my brother,
his girlfriend and my dad.<br />

We started out in foggy and cold Zürich but once we got closer to the alps, we could see bits of blue peeking through the grey. The further up we got, the better the view was and once we had reached our starting point in Arvenbühl above Amden we were out in the most glorious sunshine and deep blue sky. Fortunatly it didn't take long to rent a pair of snowshoes and then we were ready to go.<br />

The path started easy enough but after only a few minutes we'd reached a
little brook that we crossed and from there on it was only uphill. Like
really steep uphill and of course I made my usual mistake: I started
too fast which made my lungs burn. Luckily we weren't in any kind of a
rush so we just dialed down the tempo and it got a bit easier. Taking
lots of photos helped because of the many baby stops.<br />

After about 1.5 hours we reached the highest part of our hike which was
also the most beautiful. Stunning views in two directions, deep soft
snow everywhere and the trees all covered with cristalized ice. It
didn't even feel very cold because of all the heat we'd generated while
walking up.<br />

We took more photos and then we slowly made our way back down again. In the end we were hiking for about 3.5 hours including lots of breaks and we all felt our legs and arms in the best way possible.<br />

To regain a bit of strength we went for prune pie and coffee Arvenbühl (coffee spiked with spirit and whipped cream). The whole excursion took only a few hours but it was such an amazing day to spend outside with my family.Corinnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10837817690239541173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207181175794045491.post-81427739638565055532018-02-22T11:12:00.005+01:002018-02-22T11:18:42.498+01:00London<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For the first time in six years we didn't go skiing during our winter holidays. A year ago, we had planned to go to <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2017/02/">Tschiertschen</a>
again this year but alas, it wasn't meant to be. For a while I
considered going to another location for a skiing holiday, but neither
Antonia nor Yannick seemed very keen on snow and mountains and spending
time on the slopes is far too expensive to do it half assed.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Then, while we were sitting in the cable car up to the <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2017/12/finished-object-happily-sweater.html">Flumserberg</a>
right after christmas, we started dreaming about other places we could
go instead and very soon London was at the top of Antonia's list and she
convinced me to give it another try. We checked the flights and found
three seats on an easy jet flight in the middle of February.<br />

We stayed in a small appartement next to Gloucester Street. The location
was perfect, very close to the tube and there were lots of restaurants
and a mall in walking distance. The accomodation was ok, there was a
living room at street level with a kitchen nook and then there were two
bedrooms and bath below street level. There are a lot of this below
stairs appartments in most of the big London houses, I guess, they used
to be for servants. Frankly I was a bit scared in our bedrooms. I could
hear so much noise from the street and from right outside our window in
the middle of the night and it felt as if the wall was far too flimsy to
keep anybody from entering. Nothing happened though, I guess it was
just my overactive imagination ;-)<br />
<br />
We were lucky with the weather. Apart from a bit of rain on the day we
arrived there was a lot of sunshine and while it was definitely still
winter, it felt a tiny bit like spring as soon as we were out in the
open. We spent a lot of time outside so it was a very welcome surprise
to be dry most of the time. Among our highlights of the three and a half
days we stayed in London were:<br />
<ul>
<li>a long, wet walk along the Themse </li>

Definitely a lot of typical touristy stuff ;-)<br />
<br />
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked London. I've been there a few times and it always felt too big and busy and slightly scary, but not this time.<br />
<br />
I really enjoyed spending time with Antonia, she is an excellent travel compagnion and I can't wait to go to Cananda with her and I was rather sad that Yannick and I didn't manage to find a good connection very often. I think we both wanted to get along, we just couldn't figure out how to.Corinnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10837817690239541173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207181175794045491.post-45231683750993402292018-01-07T17:05:00.002+01:002018-01-07T17:54:37.917+01:00New Year's Yoga Retreat in FeldisI spent the last three days in Feldis in the mountains with lots of yoga, snow, sunshine, some knitting and lovely ladies.<br />

It was my second time at the <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2017/06/finished-objects-broken-seed-stitch.html">Sternahaus</a>. Since last February they remodeled part of the house and added a new part with a great yoga room. I especially loved the big windows in it that made me feel so close to the mountains. It was beautiful to see the sky get darker in the evening and in the morning to feel it getting lighter slowly while we were meditating.<br />

The yoga was great, I love spending time with Katharina. She has so many interesting thougths and perfectly fitting quotes and her yoga always feels new and fresh. I can feel my muscles a bit after all these practices but in a nice way. Fortunately I won't have to wait too long till I can do more yoga with Katharina. In April I will get to spend a whole week with her in Formentera. I even met my roomie already, she was also in Feldis. <br />
<br />
Yesterday there was enough time for a lovely hike at Mutta, a little further up than Feldis. There was a lot of snow and also ice up there since it had been raining into the fresh snow intensly and then it had all frozen together.<br />

This is the fourth time I will answer the following questions on my Schnickschnack blog. Here are <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2014/12/2014-resume.html">2014</a>, <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2015/12/2015-resume.html">2015</a> and <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2016/12/2016-resume.html">2016</a></div>
<span style="color: orange;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="background-color: white;">1. What did you do in 2017 that you'd never done before?</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: black;">I went surfing. I don't even know of this counts, because it was only on the Citywave but it was definitely a lot of fun. (I'm the one on the right, the others are two of my students)</span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: orange;">2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">I finished the 30 days yoga challenge and a few other yoga challenges as well. Though sometimes I didn't have time to do daily yoga, I found my way back to the mat again and again. I quit my journaling again but at least I started a yoga journal where I write down what I did, stuff that inspires me and I even started planning my own practices. I tried to enjoy life and I tried not to fight stuff I couldn't change. Sometimes I managed that better, sometimes less so, but I tried.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">My resolutions for next year: Say no to more work as often as possible, do yoga wherever I can, actually do nice things for others instead of just thinking of doing it.</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">3. Did anyone close to you give birth?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">My friend Anja had her second baby boy. As you can see she was very excited (it was such a muggy day when we took these photos and we had a lot of fun trying not to melt)</span></span><br />

<span style="color: orange;">4. Did anyone close to you die?</span><br />

<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Fortunately it was a more quiet year and nobody I knew closely died.</span> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">5. What countries did you visit?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">In January I went to Germany for a day to have a late birthday lunch with my parents.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">In April we went to California and did a road trip from <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2017/05/los-angeles.html">Los Angeles</a> to <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2017/05/san-francisco.html">San Francisco</a>.

<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Finding better connection to Yannick again. I hope it's just a long intense teenager-y phase that we have been going through for the last few months. We had our good moments, but they were few and far between.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">There were many more little moments and encounters that I remember. I am so glad to have so many great people in my life!</span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: orange;">8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">That I stayed true to myself. </span> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">9. What was your biggest failure?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">That I let myself be shaken up by things that were out of my hands. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">10. Did you suffer illness or injury?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">No, it was a good year. I've been having a bit of a cold for the last few weeks but that's all. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">11. What was the best thing you bought?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">If I bought it this year (which I think I did): My Bosé boom box. It made so many cooking and cleaning sessions a lot more fun.</span></span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;"></span><br /></span>
<span style="color: orange;">12. Whose behaviour merited celebration?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">My mum's. She got diagnosed with breast cancer and has really surprised how she accepted her illness and keeps dealing with it.</span></span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="color: orange;">13. Whose behaviour made you appalled and depressed?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">The men in my life were rather too intense for my liking (and I am not talking about new interesting romantic partners here).</span> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">14. Where did most of your money go?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Every day stuff and holidays. The latter is an excellent way to spend money, the best way really! I kind of relearnt that money isn't all that important, even though it helps for long trips.</span> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">15. What did you get really, really excited about?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Sledging makes my heart sing ;-) Enough snow is a rare thing in Zürich and as soon as it starts to stay on the ground my body gets all excited. </span></span><br />

<br />
This was recorded in London, but it was just like this in Zürich. A truly magical night that brought back so many memories and showed that some paths just keep crossing.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">17. Compared to this time last year, are you:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">a)
happier or sadder? <span style="color: black;">Happier, though it leans more towards content. </span><br />
b) thinner or fatter? <span style="color: black;">About the same. This is the worst possible time of the year to ask ;-)</span><br />
c) richer or poorer? <span style="color: black;">I don't know and I realised it's not that important. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">18. What do you wish you'd done more of?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Not done so much. Gone outside a bit more.</span> </span><span style="color: orange;"></span><br />
<span style="color: orange;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: orange;">19. What do you wish you'd done less of?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Worried. And second guessed myself, so nothing has changed. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">20. How did you be spend Christmas</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">We celebrated three times. With my cousins on the 9th, with my other cousin on the 18th and with most of the family on the 23rd. It was better than expected, some of it was actually really nice.</span><br />

<span style="color: orange;">33. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2017?</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: orange;">34. What kept you sane?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">Friends and family, laughter, meditation and yoga, travelling, not taking it too seriously. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: orange;">36. What political issue stirred you the most?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="color: black;">That weird American president who managed to stay, even though it doesn't make any sense from far away. In the beginning I thought he'd be gone quickly but it seems he can do whatever he wants without facing any consequences. #metoo made me think about the power between men and women and what it means for my own daughter.</span></span><br />

The reading year started well and kept in flow till around October, then it was slow during the last three months. I finished my reading challenge early but then I got stuck on a few books that didn't really pull me in, so I only read occassionally. I am currently still in the middle of three books (which aren't counted).<br />

<br />
This is the last project I want to write about for my frenzied blog catch up ;-). I can't explain it, but it felt wrong to start at the end or in the middle, so I did 8 blog entries to be up to date again (yep, I am a bit OCD...)<br />
<br />
Anyway, these mitts will be for Carla, a dear co-worker. She lost the <a href="https://www.ravelry.com/projects/KatColorado2/fair-isle-mitts---fair-isle-handschuhe">first pair of mittens</a> I knit for her a little while ago and every time I saw her at school, her fingers looked all cold (she used to wear the other mittens all the time because she's always cold). Of course I had to knit her a new pair.<br />
<br />

<br />
I decided to go with a pair of Spate, because I really love <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2016/09/finished-object-spate.html">mine</a>, they are the ones I wear most often and I am sure they will will excellent for both indoor and outdoor. I dove into my stash and tried to find suitable colours of roughly worsted weight. At first I went with the teal and an off white but that didn't look right, especially because that Swans Island yarn always loses colour, every time I knit with it, my fingers look as if I belonged in an Avator film. I replaced the off white with a combination of a pink Malabrigo Arroyo and a fuzzy grey Purl Soho Line Weight (two strands of Malabrigo Arroyo were too thick and didn't feel comfortable.<br />

I quite like the combination of the dark cuffs, ribbing and thumb with the pink main part. I hope Carla will like them as well and will be able to work with warmer finger again...<br />

This sweater was probably my longest and most daring project so far. It started with an image and an idea, it took three months to get done and another one to finally wear it and take some photos with it. I changed almost everything from the original pattern. Surprisingly enough, it turned out well and my fuzzy idea actually worked.<br />

<br />
When I started, I knew I wanted a fingering weight fair isle sweater with a fading effect, just like in the original Happily Sweater. I decided on trying a new yarn (<a href="https://holstgarn.dk/en/supersoft-wool-2/">Holst Garn Supersoft 100% uld</a>). I'd read a lot about it and I liked the many colours to choose from. I'd never before touched it, the only thing I knew was that it was supposed to be quite sheepy and that it might break easily. I wasn't sure if I could pull this sweater off, so it was a bit of a relief to see that the yarn was super cheap, even if nothing ever came of it, it wouldn't have been very expensive at all.<br />

<br />
I didn't like the original fair isle pattern very much, it seemed to flowery and overloaded. Instead I had a look at my new <a href="https://www.amazon.de/AlterKnit-Stitch-Dictionary-Andrea-Rangel/dp/1632505533">Alterknit Stitch Dictionary</a> and decided on going with the Tapestry pattern all over my sweater. I started the sweater during the SSKal 2017 when it was still summer. Progress was very slow and the knitting was kind of hard because the yarn is really quite stratchy. I had done a swatch and knew it was going to soften up but it was still intense knitting.<br />
<br />

<br />
It was also not a project to take along to Knit'n'Sip or on holidays because I had to pay attention to the pattern and the yarn all the time, so I needed a lot of breaks and a few smaller projects in between. I wasn't sure about the size, the bottom looked very wide and the fair isle part rather tight, but I just knit on and on.<br />
<br />
Finally I was able to join the sleeves with the body. I added a few short rows to elongate the back and I finished the collar with an iCord. After a billion of yarn endings and an intense blocking session, my sweater was finally ready to be worn and it was ok - a bit tighter at the top than I had wanted but all in all totally wearable and while not acutally soft, it's ok to be worn over a long sleeved t-shirt.<br />

Right after christmas Antonia and I took the train to the mountains and there, in the middle of the snow and beautiful weather she took a lot of photos of me wearing it. I am quite proud that I didn't give up and was able to finish this quite close to my original idea.<br />

<br />
When I heard that we were going to do a special Christmas knitting event at our knitting group at the Schopf, I knew I wanted to do more of <a href="https://www.ravelry.com/projects/KatColorado2/balls-up-">these beautiful christmas balls</a>. I ordered styropor balls in three sizes (they didn't have the 7cm anywhere, so I tried the 6cm and the 8cm - in the end I had all three sizes). The knitting event was a great success even though not everybody ended up doing christmas balls.<br />
<br />

<br />
I knit a test version for each size and came up with the following numbers:<br />
<ul>
<li>6cm balls = 18cm = 56 stitches = 35 rows (12-12-11)</li>
<li>7cm balls = 21.5cm = 64 stitches = 41 rows (14-14-13)</li>
<li>8cm balls = 25cm = 72 stitches = 47 rows (16-16-15)</li>
</ul>

I think all of them look nice and I will probably knit more because I still have lots of styropor balls left. The knitting event was a great success even though not everybody ended up doing christmas balls.<br />
<br />
I gave a few of my balls away already so they need to be replaced and it's really a lot of fun to play with a plain pattern sheet and fill in any pattern that fits...<br />

More chronological mix-up, but I guess apart from myself, nobody will care in what order I finished these projects.<br />
<br />
Anyway, my lovely friend Silvia gave me lots of yarn that she didn't need anymore. So obviously I had to knit her at least something with it. I stumbled over this beautiful new shawl by Tanis Lavalle and it looked just like the thing to try.<br />

I am not totally sure how practical the fringe is but it looks pretty and I know that Silvia has already worn it without an accident.<br />

My second stitching retreat actually happened before Portugal, but that's what happens when you want to catch up everything at once - it gets a bit messy ;-).<br />
<br />
Like my <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2016/04/finished-object-coffee-at-lake.html">first stitching retreat</a> I spent three amazing days at the shore of Lake Greifensee, with lovely people, great food, two great yoga lessons and knitting a <a href="https://www.ravelry.com/projects/KatColorado2/gregory-hat">Gregory Hat</a> for my mum and on my Happily Sweater.<br />

While I was in <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2017/12/another-yoga-retreat-in-portugal.html">Portugal</a> I knit this pretty hat. It is really important to have a new hat while you are around all these cool surfer boys (they always wear hats ;-). I love my version of Snare just as much as the <a href="https://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2016/12/finished-object-snare.html">first one</a> I knit and I have since knitted another one for my mum, so it's safe to say this is one of my favourite patterns.<br />

I went to Portual again this October because <a href="http://schnickschnacks.blogspot.ch/2016/10/a-yoga-week-in-portugal.html">last year</a> was such an amazing experience. This year I stayed closer to Lisbon, in a little village next to Ericeira. The place (<a href="http://omassim.com/">Omassim Guesthouse</a>)
I stayed at was beautiful, the yoga intense and good and the beaches
close by were just as amazing as further down the Portuguese coast. I
won't write much more but only add a few photos to give you an
impression...<br />

A long long time ago I finished this little Cardigan and a matching hat for Anja's new baby.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, there is no more bump but a little Ruven (who is already 3 months old).<br />

I loved knitting these two things, the yarn and the colours are beautiful and I know that these garments will get worn (because I've seen Ruven's brother wear his <a href="https://www.ravelry.com/projects/KatColorado2/rr-hoodie">R&R Hoodie</a> a lot).<br />

Ouch, I just realised that I haven't posted anything for the last 3.5 months. It even took me quite a while to sign back in, because I couldn't remember my password and my username. I'll try to make it up by a million posts, so be warned...<br />

<br />
My brother is a diver and he loves octopuses, he even has a big tatoo of an octopus all over his arm. So it came as no surprise when he wanted me to knit a toy version of his favourite animal. It took me a while to find a pattern that didn't look all childish and boring, but then I found the Omniscient Octopus. I could tell it was going to be a challenging knit, but I had no idea how much so.<br />
<br />

This was probably the most difficult thing I ever knit and also the one I kind of regretted starting most. To knit this octopus you have to survive lots and lots of suckers, I think there are about 300 of them, which are done by casting on stitches and then casting them off again right away and then you catch the suckers on the next two rows, before you start the next one. The whole time I was knitting I had to be really focused on what I was doing and I was never really sure if what I did was the way it was supposed to be. After a while I'd gone to far to stop so I pushed on but I was really close to giving up many times.<br />

The thing that really kept me going was that it looked very realistic and also very cool. At the end you add chenille sticks to the arms before you close them and then the octopus can me formed it every shape you want it to. I added these really intense red eyes which are slightly creepy but I love the way they look.<br />

Yesterday I met my brother for dinner and gave him his new toy. He was really happy about it and we even took it out to a bar for a drink afterwards (people were looking at us in a funny way for sure). He named it Hänk and I could tell he likes it a lot which makes it one of the best things I've ever knit (but there is no way I'd ever consider doing another one ;-)<br />
