These are my February mittens from the kal at Hobbyboden. Drops mittens, and they are crocheted using artesano alpaca i think and hook size 3.
Good afternoon everyone, i hope you are all great! i myself have not been that well the last few days, but i am definetly on the mend.
this is just a close up of the two last colours .nothing much happening here really..just knitting along on this other raspberry chevron afghan..won't be finished for another few months though!
Good afternoon everyone, i have finally gotten around to take photos of the stripey hat i have made,. i really love the hat...unfortunately..it doesn't fit me!!! it fits my 5 years old much better...and i don't think i'll ever get around to actually make one for myself. i felt it took a long time to finish this hat, besides i have millions of other projects on the go.
Such as this Raspberry Chevron Afghan for my brother's wedding in late may, and i started on Valentine's day, and I will make sure they know that;) the wool I am using is..oh dear..i cannot remember...better ask Nan...she'll know..the colour is Kemp, that i know:) Could it be Special 20% wool? need to find out, i do have two other 400G balls of wool waiting for me at the shop..., so i better get knitting:)
and i have also started on these Swirly girl socks, this is very much a "for fun" kind of project and so far i really like it. i have wanted to knit some socks for some time now, and finally i got around to do it. yay! let's see...i am using Drops Fabel, and also the red in the socks are Viking Froeya.
yup, i do keep myself busy! hope you'll have a wonderful weekend, and let me knoe you were here;

Good evening to you all, i just wanted to show you my february scarf, it's the pudorosa! it's just so cute, and i love it. it's so...i dunno, it's just so me. and the white buttons really "does" or "makes" the whole neckwarmer.
here is my january scarf, finally...it took me a long time to knit this one. this pattern is made my torilh, but she has been inspired by the fan neckwarmer.
here are my Cherry mittens almost done. the knitting is finished,and they have even been worn , but after thinking about it for a few days, i felted them just a tiny bit, and now they fit just perfect. so the picture is before felting;)
i must admit, they have been finished almost two weeks now, and these are my first attempt on knitting mittens"properly" with a pattern and all, and i am very happy with the result. The wool is Wensleydale Longwool, and it was given to me sometime last year by Julia that didn't want it anymore. i think i made good use of it don't you? So thank you Julia:)
Hello there, it's been a while! how have you al been? i have missed my blogupdates, especially because i finished this wham bam thank you lamb a while ago. i just never got around to upload the photos from my camera(correction, my hubby's camera that is)
i didn't realise that the first picture was so blurred, but the colour is correct, so i can't get myself to remove it. I have been pretty busy getting a cold you see, but now i am feeling alot better. i have some other photos to show you in a few days ...i really need to find the febryuary neckwarmer as well..it's finished, but i have put it somewhere safe..and i can't remember where..! of maybe it's the "husnisse" that took it???
i have been a bit late with a birthdaypresent, this is a scarf/neckwarmer for Fiona, she was 20 earlier this month. the scarf is made from King Cole Mirage and as you can see the shade is green:)
so here is finally the picture of the finished babyblanket, it has been finished for some time now, but i never got around to post it. hope Pia in Denmark will like it:)
good morning everyone, i hope you have had a great new year so far:)
and CAN you believe it..but it's the first Christmas present for the christmas of 2009, and it's for my sister-in -law's husband Shaun:) 
so i have been invited to another party...by torilh
I have also brought my mug from Prague that my lovely auntie bought me in 2005, i am a bit of a mug/cup collector but most of them are still in Norway, even after having lived here for 4 years.
I am trying to finish this crocheted babyblanket, just 4 more squares before it's on it's way to Pia's baby in Denmark. It's a girl she's expecting by the way or could you tell;)
and last night i started knitting the boy hat which is this month's pattern of knit a hat a month at Hobbyboden. i think it will make a nice christmaspresent in a years time;)
thank you for today, and i might well be in a bit later when the princess is away to her bed! Thank you Muffin for the invite!!!
I am doing my best to pop by to all of you ladies, but if i don't manage the whole round, i will come by during the weekend, i promise!!!
xx Tusen takk for i kveld dere!!!
welcome everyone... the famous jumper had to be worn before it was complete, and i just had to take a photo og my princess wearing it!
everybody, here she is Rainbow Dash! i finished the jumper yesterday and i am really happy with how it turned out. i found a picture online, and tried one of these pattern generators or whatever they are called. now in theory it would work fine, but it didn't, so i just had to look at the picture a make sure everything was looking right. and i think it does.
of course i ought to have a picture of the princess holding the realy pony as wel, but i forgot to bring it along when we went to the park yesterday. yes, it was cold and dull..we went a bit late i suppose. and i can't say she looks very happy either, but i assure you:SHE loves it:) 
good morning to you all! i hope you are all having a splendid day:) i myself, i feel great, last night i exercised for an hour, then later on i finally got around to finish the advent calendar mystery. i just needed to attach the hoops, and fasten all ends. i actually like the resut alot...i had planned to give it away, but i think i want to keep it..! january will be a busy month for me, i have mittens, hats and scarves to knit:) and yes.....i will be starting knitting pressies for mext xmas..!
here's just a picture of my kitchen table just before christmas dinner. it was a good day even if we didn't go to Norway this year.
Yesterday we went to New Lanark, and went for a walk to the falls of Linn, it was just lovely there, and i was so lucky that i got some wool(hubby's xmas pressie for me i think)new lanark wool, and i will make some sort of cardigan using this. haven't made up my mind just yet. 
yes yes yes, i know it's beena while since i updated, and i'm supposed to put pictures of all my advent calendar gifts, but i know i have missed a few photos, but this lovely tablecloth is the last adventcalendar gift i received, and i just love it.
it's nearly little christmas eve as we call it in norwegian, the 4year old princess has the little mermaid on tv, and i thought i ought to update just a little bit before christmastime. 
this is how it looked after last night's knitting. i am up to date with this one. i still have today's bit to do, but it'll be really quick:)
aren't they cute???
and this new wool, i have never seen it before, and a pattern to go with the wool. the pattern is a vibbedille pattern! i will make this hat after xmas:)
good morning everyone, hmm-good afternoon i meant to say! all these pictures are from my advent calendar, and i couldn't tell you which day they came..except for that these nisse-napkins was in today's numer 19..very cute, and will definetly be in use on christmas eve:)
and this bag was in yesterday's calendarpressie, and was perfect to put the little pressie for jocelyn in, on our way to the nursery. and on our way home, we put the gloves in:) just right
fritidsgarn, very nice to know what everyone in Norway is talking about..my verdict..veery nice! and will definetly buy some next time i'm in norway.
unless more is coming the nest few days...i actually have a very specific plan for this. just wait and see:)
and tnis xmas mitten....have i put in this photo before? well. it's supposed to be two of them, and this is the picture of the first one..i can't put a picture in of the other one..and it came in perfect time for my baking...so i used it to bake "kransekake" a norwegian cake made from ground almonds, icing sugar and eggwhites. 
this is yesterday's pressie, a cutie christmas oven mitt. i don't have many christmassy things in my house..and this is also only our second xmas or yule/jul in our own house..so i guess we'll"build up" our xmas things the next few years. this mitt helps..and i love it, yes i do!
i have used needles size 20mm, they were huge, but it also means that it finished up quickly. i have used kiddyprint from laines du nord, and also jamiesons' ultra.
i could feel it..it was huge and heavy.as i opened it it saw it was a snowman, and i wasn't the only one...the princess: it's a babysnowman...ummm, i don't think it's mine yet...she'll have to finish playing with it. she loves it and so do i. i't one of these things..i kinda want to knit one, but would rather knit something to wear..and now..hurrah, i don't have to make a snowman..baceu i HAVE one!
