Småting


Dette er votter i Siljagarn, mitt yndlingsgarn, hvertfall når det gjelder sokker og votter. Jeg la opp 56 m og strikket vr borden med 2r sorte , 2vr med flere farger. Pinne nr. 3.

Men så datt boka til Anna Zilborg ned i postkassa. Den hadde jeg bestilt 12. august, så den var egentlig glemt. For å finne et mønster derfra måtte jeg legge ut en m på hver p, dvs til 60.




These mittens are knitted in my favorite sockyarn, Silja from Gjestal. I CO 56 st and knitted the rib wit 2k black and 2p variegated. I had no idea about the rest.

Then Anna Zilborg's book Magnificent Mittens and Socks arrived in my postbox. I had forgot about it, not very strange, I ordered it 12th of August.

I wanted to knit one of her models AT ONCE one, but I did not want to spoil the handcuffs I already had knitted. I found this pattern and knitted from the bottom up as is usual with mittens. The next pair I will do it as she is instructed in the book.




I have finished the first mitten, I have to put in another photo of it tomorrow.














Calystegia Cowl is the name of this not so very easy neckwarmer. It is designed by Lankakomero and it is free on Ravelry.

I am in the mood for small, warm things these days, like cowls, scarves, mittens, socks etc. White is not my favorite color and I seldom wear it. But the mohair yarn must attract someone else. The yarn is Kitten mohair and I used 1 skein that was in my stash.



I have finished the cowl and hope that someome want it. We are some locals here who want to have a market before Easter. Then we will sell the home made knitteing and serve coffee and cakes.

It use to be nice.

We also have a nice shop where the owner sells the local made handicrafts. It is a nice shop with a lot of nice and beautiful things.
