Aika pollomainen juttu / Quite an owl of a situation

Kyselin tuossa viikko sitten niista Molly Makes lehdessa olleista pollokynsikkaista TAALLA ja Kapalamaen Homsantuu osaskin vinkata mita kannattaa tehda. Kiitos viela. Vinkki oli varsin onnistunut. Olenkin nyt sitten varkannyt polloa parina iltana, peukku puuttuu. Mutta voihan pollo sentaan. Pollo itsessaan onnistui varsin hyvin ja olen siita kovin iloinen. Mutta ranneosuus on kirjaimellisesti ihan vinossa. Enka oikein ymmarra miksi. Tein hieman tiukempaa kuin normaalisti mutta se oli etta sain mallikappaleen oikeankokoiseksi langallani ja puikoillani. Kokokin oli aika yllatys. Minulla on pieni kasi ja tama on todella tiukka eli toisinsanoen liian pieni. Vari on mita on.... eli punainen, koska se sattui olemaan ainoa oikeanpaksuinen lanka varastossa tahan kokeiluun. Purkuun menee joka tapauksessa eli ei haittaa.
Meilla oli tanaankin snow day eli ei koulua. Toivottavasti huomenna sentaan. Viikonlopulle povataan seuraavaa isoa myrakkaa. Etta silleen. Katotaan mihinka se myrakka osuu ja minkalaisella voimalla.

A week ago I was asking about the Molly Makes owl wrist warmers HERE and Kapalamaen Homsantuu was able to tip me off what I should try. Thank you once again for the tip. It was very successful. Now I've made my owl for few evenings, thumb missing. But oh owl... The owl itself was successful and I'm happy about it. But the wrist bit of it is literally crooked. Well, the pattern on it. And I don't quite understand why. I did knit a bit tighter than normally as the gauge demanded it with the yarn and needles I had. The size was a surprise as well. I have a small hand but the wrist warmer is very tight. In other words, too small. The colour is what it is..... red, as it happened to be the only bulky enough thread I had in my stash for this project. This will be taken apart, so I don't really mind.
We had a snow day today, i.e. no school. Hopefully tomorrow there will be. For the next weekend weathermen are predicting another big storm for us. Really? Lets see where this storm is headed for and what kind of force.
