Und er ist doch noch fertig geworden, der Adventskalender haengt und wartet auf morgen früh.

Le calendrier de l'avent, 24 petites chaussettes, maintenant toutes remplies, attendent leur proprietaire demain matin

Hi Lara,
vielen Dank für Deinen lieben Kommentar.
Bei Dir gibt's aber auch sehr schöne Sachen zu sehen, ich glaub, so 'nen Adventskalender mach ich für nächstes Jahr auch, dafür ist man schließlich nie zu alt:-)

I love it!

I came here after your nice comment on my blog. I thought that answering here would be ok?
Maybe I should try the opal yarn with a bigger needle? Did you knit with regia? I would be interested to hear about wht you think of both.

Great idea! I have a lot of left-overs. Hmmm, and I did not run into to you in Paris ;-)

Das ist der beste Adventskalender, den ich je gesehen habe. Wer braucht da noch billige Milchschokolade?
