El\u00e4m\u00e4ll\u00e4 on tapana heitt\u00e4\u00e4 kierrepalloja juuri silloin kun kaikki vaikuttaa tasaisen seesteiselle ja mukavalle. Meid\u00e4n loppuvuosi 2023 tulee olemaan hurjan paljon erilainen kuin mit\u00e4 ajateltiin. K\u00e4vi nimitt\u00e4in niin ett\u00e4 \u00e4itini menehtyi reilu viikko sitten t\u00e4ysin yll\u00e4tt\u00e4en. Nyt yrit\u00e4n jotenkin tajuta tapahtunutta ja j\u00e4rjestell\u00e4 asioita veljeni kanssa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

K\u00e4ydess\u00e4ni tavaroita l\u00e4pi \u00e4idin kodissa, tajusin kirkkaammin kuin koskaan miten paljon \u00e4iti rakasti k\u00e4sit\u00f6it\u00e4. Kaikki kaapit ja paikat ovat t\u00e4ynn\u00e4 erilaisia k\u00e4sity\u00f6-, taide- ja askartelutarvikkeita. Keskener\u00e4isi\u00e4 k\u00e4sit\u00f6it\u00e4 l\u00f6ytyy joka huoneesta. \u00c4iti harrasti posliininmaalausta, \u00f6ljyv\u00e4rimaalausta, betonivalukoristeita, kahvipussiaskartelua, kananmunankuorikoruja, virkkausta, neulontaa, kangaspuilla kutomista, ompelua, huonekalujen entis\u00f6inti\u00e4 jne jne. H\u00e4n oli alati kiinnostunut oppimaan uutta ja kokeili rohkeasti monenlaisia juttuja. Lis\u00e4ksi h\u00e4n oli aktiivisesti mukana kyl\u00e4yhteis\u00f6n yhdistystoiminnassa. Sanomattakin on selv\u00e4\u00e4 mist\u00e4 olen perinyt oman kiinnostukseni monipuolisiin k\u00e4sit\u00f6ihin ja uuden oppimiseen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viel\u00e4 viime viikolla \u00e4iti oli vet\u00e4m\u00e4ss\u00e4 k\u00e4sity\u00f6kurssia jossa valmistettiin perinteisi\u00e4 koristepalloja. Haluankin nyt \u00e4idin muistoksi jakaa n\u00e4iden koristepallojen ohjeen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tarvikkeet<\/strong>
pala sanomalehte\u00e4
j\u00e4m\u00e4lankoja (lyhyetkin p\u00e4tk\u00e4t k\u00e4yv\u00e4t)
kalalankaa
sakset
parsinneula ja\/tai kanavaneula<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Taittele sanomalehden pala pieneksi taitokseksi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Keri j\u00e4m\u00e4lankaa sanomalehden ymp\u00e4rille noin kananmunan kokoiseksi, py\u00f6re\u00e4ksi ker\u00e4ksi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Kiedo kalalankaa napakasti s\u00e4teitt\u00e4in pallon ymp\u00e4ri niin ett\u00e4 muodostuu yhteens\u00e4 noin 9 pallon ymp\u00e4ri kiert\u00e4v\u00e4\u00e4 s\u00e4dett\u00e4. Tee sit\u00e4 useampia s\u00e4teit\u00e4, mit\u00e4 suurempi pallo on. Kirist\u00e4 ja lukitse s\u00e4teet navoilla toisiinsa muutamilla pistoilla. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Pujota reilu p\u00e4tk\u00e4 j\u00e4m\u00e4lankaa neulansilm\u00e4\u00e4n ja ala ommella lankaa kalalanka s\u00e4teisiin. Muodosta pistot vieri viereen, jotta koko pallo peittyy pistoilla. Paksuhkolla langalla pallo peittyy nopeammin kuin ohuilla langoilla. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Sommittele eri v\u00e4risi\u00e4 raitoja makusi mukaan, tai k\u00e4yt\u00e4 vain yht\u00e4 v\u00e4ri\u00e4. P\u00e4\u00e4ttele langanp\u00e4\u00e4t vet\u00e4m\u00e4ll\u00e4 ne pallon sis\u00e4\u00e4n. Lopuksi voit ommella ripustuslangan, mutta sit\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4n ei v\u00e4ltt\u00e4m\u00e4tt\u00e4 tarvitse. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    V\u00e4rivalinnoilla voit soinnuttaa pallot sisustukseen sopiviksi tai tehd\u00e4 palloista sesonkikoristeita jouluun tai p\u00e4\u00e4si\u00e4iseen. Pallot sopivat roikkumaan jos kiinnit\u00e4t ripustuslangan tai kulhoon asetelmaksi. <\/p>\n\n\n

    Life has a habbit of throwing curve balls just when everything seems nice and peachy. Our year 2023 just turned out to be very different than what we thought it would be. My mum passed away very unexpectedly just over a week ago. Now I just try to somehow understand what happened and organise things with my brother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I was going through mums things and realised more clear than ever before, how much she loved hancrafting. All cupboards and closets and places were full of all sorts of hancrafting materials and art supplies. Every room of the house had unfinished crafting projects. She did porcellain painting, oil painting, concrete crafts, knitting, crocheting, weaving, coffeebag handcrafting, sewing, eggshell jewelry, furniture refurbising and so on. She was always eager to learn new things and loved to try out many different techniques. She was also actively taking part in the community associations and event organising. It goes without saying where I got my interest on handcrafting and constantly learning new things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Just last week mum was at workshop, teaching how to make traditional yarn ball decorations. So to commemorate mum, I want to share instructions for these balls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You need<\/strong>
    Piece of newspaper
    leftover yarn (even short bits will do)
    strong cotton thread
    scissors
    thick needle
    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Fold the newspaper piece into small piece.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Wind some yarn ontop of the newspaper fold untill it’s about the size of and egg, shape like a ball. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Wind strong cotton thread around the ball atleast nine times. The bigger the ball, the more strings. Secure strings in place with couple stitches on either side of the ball. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Take piece of yarn and start sewing it round each string. Each stitch layer must be very close to the previous, so that stitches cover neatly the whole ball. Thicker yarn covers the ball faster than thin yarn. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Create colourfull stripes to your liking. Or use one solic colour. End each yarn pieces by pulling the end of the yarn inside the ball. You can also add hanging string if you like, but it’s not mandatory. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      With different colours you can match balls to your home interior or make them seasonal, forexample Christmas or Easter. You can either hang them or create display on a bowl. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"
      Taittele paperi ja kiedo sen ymp\u00e4ri lankaa. \/
      Fold the newspaper and wind yarn around it.<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"
      Kun pallo on mielest\u00e4si riitt\u00e4v\u00e4n suuri ja tasainen, kiedo kalalanka s\u00e4teet sen ymp\u00e4rille. \/
      When ball is big and even enough to your liking, wind strong cotton strings around it.<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"
      Ompele lankaa s\u00e4teiden ymp\u00e4ri, lanka tulee vasemmalta, neula menee s\u00e4teen alta oikealta vasemmalle. \/<\/strong>
      Sew thread around each string, yarn comes from left, needle goes under string from right to left. <\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"
      Jatka ompelua eri v\u00e4risin langoin. Kun tulet paksuimpaan kohtaan saattaa olla vaikea pit\u00e4\u00e4 pistot tiiviin\u00e4. Silloin voit jatkaa toisen puolikkaan taas navalta kohti leveint\u00e4 kohtaa kunnes pistorivit kohtaavat. \/
      Continue sewing with different colours. When you are coming to the widest area it might be difficult to keep stiches close to each other. Then you can start the other half from top and move again towards the widest part until stitch lines meet. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
