Since then security at Sydney Airport took my knitting needles (yes, I will get over it eventually), I spent three weeks in Malaysia trying to find new needles. Knitting does not seem to be a big thing either in Australia or Malaysia. Can of course be due to the heat ... Anyway, I stumbled upon a knitting store in a shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur. Looked really nice, a couple of ladies sitting there, knitting and smiling. But there were only allergenic nylon yarns and no interesting patterns. Then I saw these crochet needles in a Japanese shop:
Och jag kan inte hjälpa att jag tycker det är jättekul att det står "knitting needles" när det är virknålar. Visade detta hysteriskt lustiga för ett par vänner, varav en iallafall är inbiten stickare, men de bara stirrade på mej. Jag började då undra om jag hade tappat verklighetsförankringen totalt, det har ju hänt förut, och blivit en fullständig sticknörd? Osökt kom tankarna in på filmen "Plötsligt i Vinslöv". Vad för slags film skulle det bli om mej om man klippte ihop de mest intensiva stickningsögonblicken?
And I can not help but think it is hilarious it says "knitting needles" on the outside when it is crochet needles. Showed this hysterically funny observation to a couple of friends, including one who really is into knitting, but they just stared at me. I began to wonder if I'd lost all sense of realism, this has happened before, and finally become a full knitting nerd? My thoughts automatically went to the movie "Suddenly in Vinslöv". What kind of movie would it turn out to be about me if one made a movie out of the most intense moments of knitting?
På stickorna är en candle flame sjal i Kid Silk och en sådan här i en av Drops gråa alpackor, stickar den på rundstickor:
On the needles are a candle flame shawl in Kid Silk and one like this in one of Drops grey alapackas, knitted on circular needles:
