Saviano socks from Knitty, winter 2009 was presented so beautiful in Knitty, that I had to try to make them:



The yarn is beautiful!







Pattern: Saviano by Yarnissima
Yarn: Gepard Garn Strong-Art, 60 gram/270 yards
Needles: 2.5 mm/US 1.5
Errors: There are lots of errors in the pattern - take a look at my notes (Ravelry).

Added: Knitty looked at my notes and changed the pattern today (26/8-10). I don't think there are any errors now. :)

more old stuff later ;)

HI ! - anybody here?

Ok - I'm back (maybe)

I've missed blogging, but then again not. I'm not knitting very much and have taken very little pictures as a consequence. Let's see if I remember how to do this...

I'll take you a year back. This is Fiona and my tiny niece that is now past a year old (in the picture she is a few months):


Fiona



Pattern: Fiona (ravelry link)
Yarn: Mandarin Petit (grey) 1.5 skeins , Mandarin classic (a little piece)
Needles: US 4 - 3.5 mm, US 2½ - 3.0 mm


Maybe I have more pictures around...

Ja - vi glemte det helt...

men vi tok seremonien i dag:



Vi tenner fire lys i kveld
og lar dem brenne ned
for lengsel, glede, håp og fred,
men mest allikevel
for fred på denne lille jord
der menneskene bor.


Lysene brenner enda, to av dem - vi gleder oss til jul!

Førjulsgleder III

Så tenner vi tre lys i kveld, for lengsel, håp og glede.
De står og skinner for seg selv og oss som er til stede.

Jeg strikker - litt. Akkurat nå strikker jeg lue til meg selv. Det blir visst lite hjemmelaga til jul. Endel er sikkert glad for det. Ikke lenge igjen nå :)


I'm knitting a hat - for me, that's all.

Førjulsgleder II

I kveld smaker vi på jula - det står pinnekjøtt på menyen - og vi gleder oss!




Så tenner vi to lys i kveld,
to lys for håp og glede.
De står og skinner for seg selv
og oss som er tilstede.

A little pink purse

This purse was gifted this summer - I just forgot about it...



The recipient (my niece) was very happy with it.

No pattern, cotton yarn (mandarin petit)and the button is from an old coat - my moms I think.
