Wrapping

Looking forward to Christmas!

Christmas gifts for friends and family.

Dishcloth yarn

I've got questions about the yarn I used for the dishcloths.

The yarn is Casablanca Sommer-Bouclé bought on sale at Rauma Ullvarefabrikk (http://www.raumaull.no/) in Norway. I can't find it in their web-store...


Garnet jeg brukte til oppvaskklutene i forrige innlegg er Casablanca Sommer-Bouclé kjøpt på salg hos Rauma Ullvarefabrikk (http://www.raumaull.no/) i sommer . Jeg vet ikke om det er til salgs lenger...

Lots of dishcloths and a scarf

Lots of dishcloths are made for Christmas, maybe (?).


These are my best dishcloths ever.

This is simply garther stitch. 30 stitches on US 8 needles. The bouclé-yarn makes the nice texture.


















And I've made a blue fun-fur scarf for a little girl I know.

It's one tread fun-fur (Funny) and one tread Flamè (cotton).



I forberedelsen til jula har jeg strikket en masse oppvaskkluter. Disse er absolutt favorittene mine. Kjempegode i bruk, og holder seg fine etter vask. Julegaver kanskje?

Og så har jeg laget et skjerf i Funny og Flamè (bomull/lin). Jeg kjenner en jente som kanskje blir glad for dette.

Jeg vet at endel lesere gjerne vil se bloggen min på engelsk, men at også endel savner det norske. Gi meg en kommentar dersom du gjerne vil se bloggen min, også på norsk.

Sideway socks

The worst socks ever.

Too tight in the toe, too wide in the leg.

I have frogged!

Pattern

A fitting sock, not...

I tried to make a sock using this pattern, and ended up with:

It's 5 cm too long, in the toe. *grr*

Inspired

Inspired by Grumperina's post on three-dimensional-scarves I had to try to make my own:

Version 1:

Really easy knitting, and I got bored, so I frogged it.

But I had to try one more version.

Version 2:



One more needle to handel, but not difficult. I got bored again, and frogged this too.

I ended up with this scarf:


Garther stitch... *lol*
