In realtà vorrei una macchina fotografica nuova, magari una reflex, ma non è ancora giunto il momento per questo acquisto impegnativo.</p>

Crochet covered jars di <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/freshlyfound/4417150783/">freshlyfound</a>.</p>
<p>È primavera, spuntano i fiori. Non sono un&#8217;appassionata di fiori recisi, ma ammetto che qualche fiore in un vaso è una festa per gli occhi. Se in casa hai solo brutti vasi o non ne hai affatto, puoi riciclare barattoli di alluminio e contenitori di vetro facendogli un bel vestitino all&#8217;uncinetto. La realizzazione è alla portata di tutti, dalle magliste esordienti a quelle incallite.</p>
<p>Se hai appena imparato a tenere l&#8217;uncinetto in mano, puoi cominciare con la versione più semplice: fai una catenella lunga quanto il diametro del contenitore da rivestire, chiudila in tondo con una maglia bassissima e poi lavora in tondo con maglie basse o maglie alte/altissime, andando avanti fino a raggiungere l&#8217;altezza desiderata (che non deve essere necessariamente quanto l&#8217;altezza del contenitore!).</p>
<p>Se invece vuoi provare qualcosa di più elaborato, puoi lanciarti sul filet o i punti a maglie aperte, come ha fatto <a title="freshlyfound" href="http://www.flickr.com/people/freshlyfound/">freshlyfound</a> con i poetici barattoli di vetro nella foto.</p>
<p><span><a href="http://blendingblue.blogspot.com/2010/02/crocheted-vase.html"><img class="alignnone" title="Vase cover" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4012/4343511944_71f416bea0.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="283" /></a><br />

<p>La scelta del filo con cui lavorare influenza il risultato finale: i filati più sottili sono adatti per lavorazioni più elaborate e ricche di dettagli, mentre i filati più grossi vanno bene anche per le principianti e per l&#8217;utilizzo dei punti base, per una lavorazione compatta. La scelta non è limitata a lana, cotone o acrilico, ma può estendersi ai materiali più diversi: plastica riciclata dalle buste della spesa, jersey dalle tshirts, spago, eccetera.</p>

<p>Il <a href="http://www.mylifetime.com/lifestyle/home-crafts/craft-ideas/needle-arts/crochet-lace-vases?page=0,0">tutorial di Julie Armstrong Holetz</a> serve invece per creare tre  variazioni di vasi con juta, filo di cotone e canapa. Questi vasi non  rivestono un contenitore ma si reggono in piedi da soli, grazie al  trattamento con l&#8217;amido. Se vuoi usarli per metterci l&#8217;acqua con i  fiori, piuttosto che uncinetti, pennelli e matite, ti basta evitare il  tattamento indurente ed eventualmente sostituire i filati più rigidi (lo  spago, la juta) con cotone o acrilico.</p>

<p>Ho appena completato <em>il piccolo aiutante rosa</em> di Emma, che è (appena) nata il 10 febbraio 2010. La mamma aveva visto <a href="http://www.ciaocimba.com/2009/10/13/arriva-sgonfio/">Sgonfio</a> e ne voleva uno, ma era meglio non usare occhi e nasi di plastica che non sono adatti ai bambini piccoli. Così, ho provato qualcosa di diverso e ne è uscito lui. Certo, con <a href="http://www.ciaocimba.com/2009/10/13/arriva-sgonfio/">Sgonfio</a> non c&#8217;entra niente&#8230;speriamo solo non faccia paura a una neonata :)</p>

<p>Quando ho visto il<a href="http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/crochet-along/"> Craft Crochet-Along</a> con le istruzioni di <a href="http://www.roxycraft.com/">Roxycraft</a> per il <a href="http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2009/09/crochet-along_fuzzy_panda_amig.html">Fuzzy Panda amigurumi</a>, non ho avuto dubbi: ci avrei provato anche io. Ufficiosamente, perchè non ero sicura di poterlo fare in real-time in una settimana (il lavoro, le cavallette, ecc). E poi era un progetto perfetto per ricominciare gli incontri settimanali con le altre <em>omiche</em> magliste. Così è arrivato <strong>Sgonfio</strong>.</p>
<p>Stavolta sono stata brava e ho seguito le istruzioni alla virgola&#8230;ochei, quasi. La mia idiosincrasia (sfoggio per non dire <em>estrema difficoltà</em>) nel seguire le regole, qualsiasi regola, alla lettera ha colpito ancora. Ma stavolta mi sono limitata a scegliere dei filati diversi, perchè devo togliere di mezzo un po&#8217; di lane e acrilici in casa, ed ecco perchè Sgonfio è a pelo corto e non lungo come l&#8217;originale :) E poi dovevo anche provare un set di occhi e naso! Dalle foto non si vede molto, ma posso assicurare che Sgonfio lo è di nome e di fatto.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m trying hard to make new things for the shop and work on craft projects in the spare time I have. I&#8217;ve done about three scarfs and half in the past two weeks or so, and it&#8217;s good, but I must start sewing sooner or later. The thing I love most about crochet is that you can carry it everywhere, really.</p>

<p>Let&#8217;s say I bought this <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0761139850/104-3427724-0821532?v=glance&amp;n=283155" target="_blank">book</a> almost only for <a href="http://www.camillaengman.com" target="_blank">Camilla</a>&#8217;s softies pattern. Let&#8217;s say that I&#8217;m drooling over them from a long &#8211; long! &#8211; time, and that I couldn&#8217;t get my hands on them no way because they sell the moment they are born. Ok? ok. And, that said, let&#8217;s say also that I normally hate to follow a pattern (you can go metaphorical here, too), and that, no matter what I tell myself, I sure end up to make something different &#8211; or everything. Well, with all those things said I forgot what I wanted to say at first, anyway I crocheted this Elephant Bear (I like to think of him like the Elephant Man in da Super Cuties Softies World) constantly asking my mind what the hell a <em>back loop</em> was. I searched all the book, that is very clear otherwise, and couldn&#8217;t find anywhere for it, so I started guessing in italian and tried to crochet in circle from left to right instead of the usual way (right to left), yes, going back. Now, those softies are all made in slip stitches and anyone who crochet out there would perhaps understand why I was yelling doing this. If you do crochet and love to work everyday circles in slip stitches going back, stop reading and go out of my blog please. Ok, I was joking. Maybe.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cimba/229623455/" title="Photo Sharing"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/87/229623455_70653418f6_m.jpg" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right" alt="The Elephant Bear // 2" align="cssRight" border="1" height="180" width="240" /></a>  Anyway, I couldn&#8217;t stand that torture and guessed that Camilla neither and that I was surely making something wrong, so finally decided to slip stitch normally all the way and turn inside out the softie at the end of the work. It was a minor threat, but I was humiliated also by the fact that I couldn&#8217;t understand neither the special stitch called in the pattern, so I worked all the softie with a sense of sacrifice for my ignorance and dummyness. Then, the other night, while casually reading the book about a crochet stitch I used for a scarf, I dumped in a back loop. I couldn&#8217;t believe my eyes. Doing a back loop is so simple and distant from what I tried to guess about it, I wanted to cry or to kill. I swear little Elephant is still alive.</p>

<p>Ochei. Lo so. Sono stata via troppo tempo e ora nessuno si ricorda pi&ugrave; di me. Cimba? Ma chi? Quella dei melmini? Pensavo avesse aperto un bar in Bielorussia. Ma no, l&#8217;hanno vista falciare prati in Nuova Zelanda. E cos&igrave; via. Purtroppo invece ero vicina al blog col corpo, per quanto lontana nello spirito, e in questo mese e passa mi sono dedicata ad alcune discutibili DIY attivit&agrave; ed altre cose, per le quali rimando alla parte in inglese, e perfavore non tacciarmi di trascurare l&#8217;italiano, perch&egrave; un po&#8217; &egrave; vero, ma anche no.</p>

<p>My mom crocheted this voracious pouch last week. It tried to bite my fingers, but it&#8217;s oh so sweet.<br />
Now. I have a<span style="font-weight: bold"> question for you all please</span>. Do you like Ciao!Cimba logo? Do you think it need a spice up or a change? Or you&#8217;ll just leave it as it is? Feel free to add any suggestions or opinions if you want.<br />
I&#8217;m asking because I have to change some technical issues on this site, I need something more faster than editing HTML by Notepad myself, so I&#8217;m thinking about the eventuality to redesign layout and graphics too, if necessary. Let me hear your voice! Thanks.</p>

<p>Un&#8217;altra prodezza di Mamma Uncinetta: l&#8217;astuccio mangione.<br />
E ora un <span style="font-weight: bold">sondaggio</span>: ti piace il logo Ciao!Cimba? E la grafica del sito? Cambieresti qualcosa nel logo o nella grafica, se si cosa? Ti piacerebbe un logo nuovo di zecca? O lo lasceresti così com&#8217;è perchè lo trovi perfetto? Si accettano opinioni e consigli.<br />
Te lo chiedo perchè voglio trovare una soluzione più efficiente (si, ho usato questa parola) per aggiornare il mio sito, e una volta che mi ci trovo, posso cogliere la lepre al balzo e decidere di rimettere mano anche a logo e grafica. Vai, sfogati nei commenti. Perfavore! Grazie.<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cimba/132569020/" title="Gnam"></a></p>
