Who knows German?

[pixiecrinkle]

OK, I'm looking for someone online who wants to do this crazy beaded colorwork sweater I've started, and I finally got a hit on google. But it's in German. The last time I actually attempted to speak/read/write in German with any regularity was 1996, so I'm a bit rusty. Can anyone help me with this paragraph:


Wollt ihr wissen, was mein nächstes Projekt sein wird? Carlotta aus dem Rowanmagazin Nr. 36!!! Allerdings besteht mein Projekt nicht darin, diesen Pullover selber zu stricken (so gut kann ich meine Strickfähigkeiten dann doch einschätzen...), sondern darin, eine Strickerin vom Wollwirrware zu suchen, die Lust hat dieses Teil in Angriff zu nehmen. Ich hoffe, dass sich da jemand finden wird! Ich träume schon lange von dem Pulli.

Schön, dass ihr uns alle ins Strickcafé gefolgt seid! Und vielen Dank für die vielen Meinungen zur Preisfrage!

Words for non-knitters:
-Carlotta is the name of the sweater
-Rowan #36 is the magazine the pattern is in
-Strickcafe' is the blog name



I think it looks like she is about to start the sweater and is seeking other people knitting it, but I'm not certain. It might also say she's looking for someone to knit it for her. I get the feeling that she does read English from some of the blogs in her blogroll, but I want to at least make an attempt at understanding her and writing in her language before I go off and send a random email to someone around the world.

Yeah, I tried Babelfish too. It was the "cord abilities" sentence that had me stumped. And I think Wollwirrwarre is World Wide Web, but I wasn't sure about Strickerin.

I really need to re-learn a foreign language. Once upon a time I could have gotten through that without help!

Stricken is "to knit" so Strickerin would be "knitter." ;)

I figured the same about Wollwirrwarre.
