Can you think of anything more fun than crafting under the sun? (wow, that sounded almost poetic, didn’t it?) Well, not UNDER the sun, in fact you’d better be well-protected, sunscreen, glasses, hat and lots of water… If you ‘re lucky enough, you’ll find a nice place to sit comfortably in the shade and …just knit or crochet or whatever it is you’re up to…

I took 2 projects along on the first part of our family vacation in Aegina, an island near Piraeus where I live, but far enough to feel like miles and miles away from home. This was the view from our balcony:

And these are the projects I finished while staying there:

my version of Lisa Naskrent’s Maia Shawl…

and a second, smaller version of my own Adelina Shawl, in solid coloured yarn…

I also did some reading, lots of swimming, relaxing and enjoying time with my family and friends, it’s amazing how quickly time goes by when one has fun, isn’t it?
