Joukahainen Ruiskukasta, originally uploaded by elemmaciltur.

Start: 14th July 2009
Finish: 14th August 2009
Needles: 4 mm / 80 cm Addi Turbos
Yarn: Wollmeise "Molly"; 100% superwash Merino; colourway "Kornblume"
Pattern: Joukahainen by Kristel Nyberg. Published in Finnish in the magazine Ulla 03/07. Pattern is available as an English translation as Ravelry download.
Name: "Joukahainen Ruiskukasta" should say something along the line of "Joukahainen out of Cornflower" (I'm just playing on the colourway name).
Modifications: Alternating the skeins after every second round to spread out the pooling.
