Pink odessas

I had this cotton yarn in my stash that was going to be washcloths, but then I dicovered that it was this beautiful and soft maco cotton and I had to make something else. I love the Odessa pattern so here are three more Odessas:



Pattern available as free Ravelry download.
Yarn: Pandora maco cotton (Rauma), 70g
Needles: 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm

I added a little fun to the smallest hat:

Podcast listening

Do you listen to podcasts? I listen to a lot of podcasts about knitting and crocheting. One of my absolute favourites is the Yarn Thing podcast hosted by Marly.



The first time I blogged about the Yarn Thing podcast was in the beginning of Mai 2007 (back then I only blogged in Norwegian), so I have been listening almost from the start and we have become good friends on the web. :)

She has a 1 year anniversary right now. Congrats Marly!
I hope you'll continue podcasting for a long time.

Central Park Hoodie

Finally - I give you my Central Park Hoodie without a hoodie:



It was done a week ago, but I can't get anyone to help me with the pics.

Almost done:





Have a nice Saturday night!

turns into this:



I'm really happy. :)

Beautiful cabled socks

Blue Egeblad and a sock in progress

I've all done, knitting the doily "Egeblad":



But I don't have anywhere to block it, my hubby is not to fond of pins in the bed ;) , so it'll have to wait.


Cabled sock progress:
