About Me

I'm a 25-year-old girl from Helsinki, Finland. I love crafts, cooking, music and languages. I speak Finnish, English, Swedish, Japanese and Estonian, and I've also studied some French, German, Spanish and Russian.

Favorite Crafts

Knitting, crochet, ATC's, inchies

What I like and don't like

I like:

-colors: I like pretty much all colors, but I prefer dark, deep, rich colors, for example red, green, purple and teal. I'm not so much into pastel baby colors and screaming bright colors, but in the right context they can be great, too.

-yarn

-paper (especially patterned scrapbook paper, yuzen chiyogami paper, hand made paper etc. for crafts) I make ATC's and inchies, so I can find use for the tiniest leftover scrap

-Basic Grey products

-die cuts

-stationery

-kawaii stuff

-pens and markers, especially gel pens

-different embellishments: eyelets, quicklets, brads, buttons etc.

-glitter glue

-Addi needles

-real plants and things with pictures of them

-candles

-tea (pretty much any kind, black, white, green, rooibos... I love to try new flavours)

-colourful eyeshadows and make up pens

-spring and autumn

-bonsai trees

-languages (I'd love to receive newspaper or book pages in different languages to use them in my craft projects)

-KoolAid for dying yarn

I don't like:

-Disney

-Diddl

-things with photos of kittens, puppies, horses, babies or other things that are supposed to be cute

-novelty yarns with eyelashes and pompoms and whatnot on them

-variegated yarns in busy colorways which have too much contrast between different colours and the colours don't go together

Favorite Music

Rock, metal, alternative, progressive...

Absoluuttinen nollapiste, The Beatles, Björk, Cleaning Women, Foo Fighters, Graham Coxon, Janis Joplin, Karkkipäivä, Korn, Kuolleet Intiaanit, Maj Karma, Marilyn Manson, Metallica, Moby, Nine Inch Nails, Portishead, Pää, Radiohead, Rammstein, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sigur Rós, Superchrist, Sydän, sydän, System of a Down, Thom Yorke, Tommi Liimatta, Tool, Ultra Bra, YUP....

Favorite Books

I like craft books and magazines and cook books with pretty pictures.

I haven't read much fiction lately, but some of my favorites are Dostoyevski and Bulkakov.

Favorite Television

Six Feet Under, ER, The X-Files, Big Brother, Monty Python, Little Britain, Smack the Pony, Big Train (and actually most British comedy shows), The Simpsons
