More letters from me...this time it's for Mari in Finland and Jannicke in Norway. I can't believe it took me this long to write letters...! Next one to be written is for Camilla, also in Norway..by the way I ahve actually started writing it, what do you say for being eager!!

I have also been knitting, I started a jumper in Narvik wool on Monday, and I am nearly fiished with it. The front and back are done, and I have started with the sleeves. I am very inpressed with myself!

Pics will be up soon, when it's done I mean!

Hobbies

I guess I ought to tell you about my other hobby, ot used to be my passion, the thing I lived and breathed for...

I started penpalling in 1990, when I was 12 years old, although the last few years I have had an unvoluntary break, I still consider myself as a letterwriter.

At the "worst" stage i had over 50 penpals, but now it has narrowed down to alot less then that number.
I wanted to tell you about he big thing for me this year, it is that I am challenging myself to write 52 letters in 52 weeks, and I have already managed to write the first one!

I am very happy, and proud to tell that I have finished a letter to the lovely Lisa from Germany. My lette is going in the mail tomorrow!!

Big hugs, Linn

Scrappy Granny Squares

 I finished the blanket for my daughter's bed

 The blanket was started in 18th April 2008
 I have used only scrap wool for the squares
 Some of the squares are not basic granny squares, this square is from a Garnstudio baby blanket (rav link)
 This is another Garnstudio square



 The cat Solveig has found her place on the blanket indeed!
 My two girls :)





 Edging, I am loving it.
Very happy with this one, so I have started another one:)
