Domino hat Posted by Hello

Ok, What is this you might say. Is this knitting? Well yes it is if you look very very close you might see something on my head and that is this winters new domino knitted hat(?). I have not figured out why my pictures becomes soo small. They could be a little bit bigger so I added a closeup.

So what is happening on the knitting front?
Well I'm still working on my flower basket poncho. I think it's about 440 stiches at the moment.
I also have turned some ufo's to yarn. They were ufo's because I was not pleased with the result.
Here is one of them now...



Well this ufo was knitted in very bulky yarn, double, too small needles and in a form that surely would have made me look like a colorful hotdog. :(

I'm home on sick leave! I was at the doctors yesterday and he said I have pnemonia, not good. the only 'good' thing is that while waiting for testresults and doctor I almost finnished my pink lace socks. finally home in the sofa I added the last final tuch and voilá, ready. Not my first socks but my first ones in lace. I will do this again. It was so much more fun than just knitting plain.

Ok, I´m not the only one knitting this pattern. But just to be true to myself (I like to change everything) I'm making a poncho not a shawl. :) . The reason is that I just have a hard time keeping a shawl on and figured a poncho would suit me better. I seems though I took water ower my head with this project. TO THIN YARN! I use a weaving yarn I have about 20kg of in various colors. It becomes wery light and beatifull but timeconsuuming. I planned to have this shawl during this summer but next summer is more likely I think.

Anew beginning has begun - En ny begynnelse

When I first started to use Internet there was nothing.

That is nothing about knitting and weaving and all those other stuff that facinates me. Just some week ago I stumbled in on bloggs about knitting and then I was hooked. I immediately urged to have my own blogg and here it is!

I hope you all will enjoy what I can show and describe on this blogg and I hope I'll see you all many times. :)

När jag först började använda internet fanns intet

Det vill säga inget om stickning och vävning och allt annat som facinerar mig.
Och så, för några veckor sedan snubblade jag in på en stickblogg och var fast. Genast ville jag också ha en och så; här är den!

Jag hoppas att ni kommer att ha glädje av det som jag kommer att beskriva här och, vem vet, vi kanske ses igen? :)
