Zizi Scarf - Κασκ;oλ Zizi της Μαριέτας Ιωσηφίδου

Κάτι νέο, ήρθε απρόσμενα στις βελόνες μου. Η αφορμή από τους  ravellenics 2016 στην πλεκτοκοινότητα Ravelry. Η έμπνευση μέσα στη ζέστη του Αυγούστου, δεν μπορώ να περιγράψω πώς ήρθε. Ακόμη  δεν έχω συνειδητοποιήσει,  πότε  έγραψα το σχέδιο , που ξετρύπωσα  το  υπέροχο νήμα Alize Superlana Midi - 155 Mykonos color (Δώρο από την  αγαπημένη Ceylan Karahasan - Handmade Νήματα Χάντρες ) , πότε χοροπήδησε  το Alizaki πάνω στις βελόνες και άρχισαν τα μαγικά κόλπα , καλή, ανάποδη, ξήλωμα, ξανά καλή, ζετέ και πάλι από την αρχή... οφείλω να πώ ότι δεν το κατάλαβα ειλικρινά.  Καλοτάξιδη τσαχπίνα  Zizi !

Something new in my needles. The inspiration from  The occasion of the ravellenics 2016 in knitting community of  Ravelry.  I can not describe how came in my mind The inspiration in the hotest days of the year in the heart of summer. Yet I don't realize, when I wrote the pattern, ferret wonderful yarn Alize Superlana Midi - 155 Mykonos color (special gift from my lovely, Ceylan KarahasanCeylan Karahasan - Handmade Yarn & Beads), when jumped the "Alizex"on the needles and began my magic tricks, knit, purl, yarn over, again knit, jerk and over again ... I must say that I did not understand honestly. I'm very happy for Zizi, my best wishes to her for "Bon voyage" , mon cerry Zizi in the knitting world. Zizi is here
