Secret gift 2

We came home from a camping trip this Saturday, and I found an envelope in the mailbox containing a gift from my Secret Nordic friend Johanna. It was a skein of black Lanette wool, a tube of sparkling red rocaille pearls, a pair of 2 mm needles and instructions for how to knit wristwarmers with pearls. I have been interested in pearl knitting for some time, and now I have all the necessary supplies. I have done 1/6 of my Volcan cardigan, and I have promised myself not to start any pearl knitting before the Volcan is finished. So far it is gorgeous. I have based it on a cardigan from a German knitting book (printed 1982 or so) and I am changing things as I go along. I will take some photos when the ligh is good, it is not easy to show the change from fuchsia to orange accurately.
