K\u00e4sit\u00f6ist\u00e4 bloggaamisessa on se, ett\u00e4 pit\u00e4isi olla hirvitt\u00e4v\u00e4n tuottelias voidakseen taata tasaisen p\u00e4ivitystahdin. Ainakin mik\u00e4li haluaa p\u00e4ivitt\u00e4\u00e4 jostain valmiista ja hienosta. Mutta kuten k\u00e4sity\u00f6n yst\u00e4v\u00e4t hyvin tiet\u00e4v\u00e4t, jokaisessa WAU-k\u00e4sity\u00f6ss\u00e4kin on se tyls\u00e4 vaihe. Yleens\u00e4 siihen liityy p\u00e4\u00e4rm\u00e4\u00e4minen tai muu saumojen k\u00e4\u00e4ntely.<\/p>\n

T\u00e4ss\u00e4 menn\u00e4\u00e4n t\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 nyt.<\/p>\n

R\u00f6yhel\u00f6huntujen edellytt\u00e4\u00e4 hurjasti p\u00e4\u00e4rm\u00e4\u00e4mist\u00e4. Pit\u00e4isi jaksaa vet\u00e4ist\u00e4 noin 20 metri\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4rmett\u00e4 ennenkuin p\u00e4\u00e4sen mihink\u00e4\u00e4n j\u00e4nnitt\u00e4v\u00e4mp\u00e4\u00e4n vaiheeseen. Toisaalta p\u00e4\u00e4rm\u00e4ily on ihanan aivotonta.<\/p>\n

Ompelua sulostuttaa se, ett\u00e4 on hyv\u00e4t v\u00e4lineet. Tein \u00e4skett\u00e4in tarpeellisia varastont\u00e4ydennyksi\u00e4 SPES medieval Marketista (mehil\u00e4isvahakynttil\u00f6it\u00e4, uusi olkipatjapussi) ja p\u00e4\u00e4tin samalla tilauksela kokeilla uutta ompelusetti\u00e4<\/a> (alemmassa kuvassa sinisell\u00e4 villalla). Se on varsin mainiota tavaraa.<\/p>\n

Tykk\u00e4\u00e4n nimitt\u00e4in jostain syyst\u00e4 kovasti kotonakin ommella reproneuloilla, eli siis keskiaikaisen esikuvan mukaan tehdyill\u00e4 vs. moderneilla. Mutta hyvien neulojen l\u00f6yt\u00e4minen on aika vaikeaa. Useimmat ovat liian pehmeit\u00e4, toiset tylsi\u00e4, joissain neuloissa on niin karkea silm\u00e4, ett\u00e4 lanka katkeaa. N\u00e4m\u00e4 neulat eiv\u00e4t tunnu k\u00e4rsiv\u00e4n mist\u00e4\u00e4n yll\u00e4 mainituista ongelmista. Paketissa on hyv\u00e4 hinta-laatusuhde, sill\u00e4 siin\u00e4 tulee 6 pient\u00e4 nuppineulaa, kaksi ompeluneulaa ja viel\u00e4 suuri parsinneula, jota voi k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 vaikka ruuanlaitossa (kuten Hollolassa kun parsittiin ahvenella t\u00e4ytetyn hauen vatsa kiinni).<\/p>\n

The thing about blogging about crafts ist that you’d have to be quite productive in order to keep up a decent stream of interesting updates. Especially if you want to blog about finished items or interesting phases. Like most crafts people know, even the most WOW-inducing projects have those slow and boring phases. Usually they seem to include hemming.<\/p>\n

This is where I am now.<\/p>\n

Frilled veils take an impressive amount of time spent hemming. I still have about 20 meters to hem before I get to the more exciting assembly phases. On the other hand, hemming is delightfully brainless.<\/p>\n

All crafts are way more fun with good tools. I recently stocked up on necessities (beeswax candles, a new mattress bag) from SPES medieval market and decided to also get one of their sewing kits.<\/a> (in the picture above, on the blue wool) It’s good stuff.<\/p>\n

For some reason I like to sew with reproduction needles vs modern ones even here at home. Finding good needles is however a bit tricky. Most needles are way too soft and bendy, some are dull and the others have such a rough eye that they break the thread. These needles, however, don’t seem to have any of these issues. And there is a good price-quality ratio too, since the kit has six small pins, 2 sewing needles and a big mending needle (which can also be used for cooking like sewing up a stuffed fish like in Hollola).<\/p>\n

Bonuksena kissakuva! Kissa-apuri Verka on aivan v\u00e4s\u00e4ht\u00e4nyt joko tyls\u00e4\u00e4n p\u00e4\u00e4rm\u00e4\u00e4misen seuraamiseen tai sitten julkisuus uuvuttaa. TV-julkkis Verkahan esiintyi Puoli Seitsem\u00e4ss\u00e4<\/a> my\u00f6s. (Kissojen varpaissa on jotain kamalan suloista. Niinkuin pieni\u00e4 vaaleanpunaisia papuja.)<\/p>\n

Bonus cat picture! My cat help Verka is really tired, either due to helping with the boring hemming or then it is the fame getting to her. Verka is now a TV celebrity, because she was also featured on Puoli Seitsem\u00e4n.<\/a> (I love it how cats have little toes that look like beans.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
