Aaand I’ve got my first swap partner ever! I have not been in touch with her yet, but the magic of Ravelry and blogging has already told me loooads about her. So let’s do a quick presentation. Everyone, meet Hanna!
Hanna is Finnish and she lives in Kuopio – here we are connected by a big blue line. :)
It looks like it could be mighty cold up there! I better make something waaarm for her…
Hanna does all sorts of crafts and she has been knitting since she was 7 years old! Phew, I’m getting nervous now. :) But still looking forward to it! I’ve had a quick look at her favorite patterns and it seems like I might at least have an easier job picking than her – she only has 31 favorites, as opposed to my 641! :D
Let the excitement begin! :)

Hello from Finland =o) This is my first hat swap. I haven’t checked out your favorites yet. Never knitted in English before but I’m sure I can find a hat pattern of your 641 favorites which I’m able to knit ;o)
Hello, Hanna :) I think you’ll have fun discovering English patterns – I learned to knit in Croatian myself and when I first saw a pattern an English it looked completely undecipherable. But very soon it became my first knitting language, and the good thing about it is that a decent number of patterns that are published in other languages get translated into English as well… Looking forward to our swap! :)
ha-haaa, I already found one pattern there which I think will be quite easy to knit. Won’t tell you, though… ;o). So, you like earth tones and blue colors… and no multi-color yarns… hmmmm… must go shopping this week =o)
Excited! :)
