Happy last Monday of the year, it's almost over! How could it be otherwise, we ended up knitting and sharing the story in the community that brings more happiness to my days. Always grateful to #needleworkmonday for being a space of creation, love and respect in the beautiful Web3 that is #Hive.

This is the 2nd and last knitted work I did in the year 2023, my friend Guadalupe commissioned me to Perry the super cute knitted Ornithrinco, and I, who loves challenges more than knitting, jumped in without hesitation.

Este es el 2do y último trabajo tejido que hice en el año 2023, mi amiga Guadalupe me encargó a Perry el Ornitorrinco super cute tejido, y yo, que amo más los desafíos que tejer, me lancé sin dudar.
I sent her two different images of ideas that I could try to copy and both with the final price. She chose and I went to buy the materials. As the economic situation is changing at the best of times, I urgently needed to know if I could get the characteristic color of the character and I got it at the usual price. I started and let her know that I could count on the finished gift by the required date. Her only request was that the hat be removable, not sewable. No problem.

Le envié dos imágenes distintas de ideas que podría intentar copiar y ambas con el precio final. Ella escogió y yo fui a comprar los materiales. Como la situación económica es cambiante a más no poder, necesitaba con urgencia saber si conseguiría el color característico del personaje y lo conseguí al precio de siempre. Empecé y le avisé que podría contar con el regalo terminado para la fecha necesaria. El único pedido de ella era que el sombrero se pudiese quitar, no coserlo. Ningún problema.
The theme started like this, the body and the greenish color wings (I'll call it that, because I don't know what color it is exactly) I had to make them with 50 or 60 grams of yarn, I made increases until I thought it would look good, (42 stitches in total) and I started the length, it was about 17 turns, and the closure. Perfect, there was some yarn left over for the fins and a little left over too.

El tema empezó así, el cuerpo y las alitas de color verdoso (le diré así, pues no sé qué color es exactamente) tenía que realizarlas con 50 o 60 gramos de hilo, hice aumentos hasta que me parecio que quedaria bien, (42 puntos en total) y comencé el largo, fueron mas o menos 17 vueltas, y el cierre. Perfecto, sobraba hilo para las aletas y un pequeño resto también.
The beak was going to be a challenge, the original photo looked like a triangle in the beak, I couldn't do this as is, they must have used some magnification that I didn't do or didn't learn yet, but it would look pretty good; anyway, a platypus has a duck's beak, doesn't it?

El pico iba a ser un desafío, la foto original se veía como un triángulo en el pico, no pude hacer esto tal cual, deben haber usado algún aumento que yo no hice o no aprendí aun. pero bastante bien quedaría; de todos modos, un ornitorrinco tiene un pico de pato, no?
Remembering that none of this has a pattern, I copied parts of some previous projects, to see the number of loops or stitches and that they were the same, imagine knitting without a pattern and that the legs turn out different without that being the objective. A horror!

Recordando que nada de esto tiene un patrón, fui copiando partes de algunos proyectos anteriores, para ver la cantidad de vueltas o de puntos y que quedaran iguales, imaginate tejer sin patrón y que las patitas resulten distintas sin que sea ese el objetivo. ¡Un horror!
I was able to make two equal paws, and one a little bigger to simulate the tail, I loved the final work, although at times I think it is not fully understood who it is, even so the hat would obviously make the difference and distinction needed.

Pude hacer dos patitas iguales, y una un poco más grande para simular la cola, me encantó el trabajo final, aunque de a momentos creo que no se entiende por completo quién es, aún así el sombrero haría evidentemente la diferencia y distinción necesaria.
I finished all the parts and started with the hat, I want to tell you that with this project, I remembered again why I loved knitting so much, it is something that gives me clarity, speed of creation and relaxes my mind from any external problem (that's a lot!)

Terminé todas las partes y comencé con el sombrero, quiero contarles que con este proyecto, volví a recordar por qué amaba tanto tejer, es algo que me da claridad, velocidad de creación y me relaja la mente de cualquier problema externo (eso ya es un montón!)
I would not like to be so long without knitting again, and to my surprise, once Guadalupe took the gift to her friend, she told me that the office was full of compliments and several people asked for my number! I hope to have orders soon and be able to resume knitting as a source of income.

Quisiera no volver a estar tanto tiempo sin tejer, y para mi sorpresa, una vez que Guadalupe le llevó el regalo a su amigo, me dijo que la oficina se llenó de halagos y varias personas pidieron mi número! Espero tener pedidos pronto y poder retomar el tejido como fuente de ingresos.
The guy loved the gift, they very kindly sent me the photo, courtesy of the group that gave him the gift and we were showered with congratulations and loving greetings. Knitting for fanatic people, as a surprise, and with so much love is a luxury, personally.

Al chico le encantó el regalo, me enviaron muy amablemente la foto, cortesía del grupo que le hizo el regalo y nos llenamos de felicitaciones y saludos amorosos. Tejer para gente fanática, a modo sorpresa, y con tanto cariño es un lujo, en lo personal.
I hope the coming year will be full of achievements and challenges, of fabrics and love, of colors and yarns. And above all, passion for creativity! I send you a big hug and up with the power of the needles!

Espero que el año entrante esté lleno de logros y desafíos, de tejidos y amor, de colores y lanas. Y por sobre todas las cosas, pasión por la creatividad! Les mando un abrazo enorme y arriba el poder de las agujas!!

Te quedó fantástico. Tu cliente ha de quedar muy satisfecho.
Entiendo cuando dices lo inestable de la economía. El otro asunto es conseguir los colores correctos. Por eso me alegra mucho que hayas logrado el objetivo. Felicidades.
