Express update!
Knitting a whole sweater in just a few days sure doesn’t feel too shabby! I’ll publish this as a free pattern on the blog later, so go and dig out some super bulky wool at once! ^.^ Magnus get to try it on now and then, and seems pretty pleased! *** Att sticka…

Express sweater knitting…
I’ve been making such slow progress on this sweater for my hubby… and now I noticed that something had gone wrong with my gauge halfway through the body, it was much looser than at the bottom edge… Meh. So I’ll probably be ripping that out. But, since he’s been asking for a really thick…

Arvid & Gridlines
Look what I found! I need to go through older photos and see what I’ve forgotten to blog about. My friends boy Arvid sure knows how to model, don’t you think? This time he’s wearing Gridlines, one of my early designs. I have to take a photograph of my combined collection of baby knits…

Apple green Twist
A couple of inches into my orange Twist pullover I realized something. Even though the yarn is absolutely beautiful, it really doesn’t fit anything in my wardrobe! I’ve got no problem with orange, but looking at my collection of dresses with lots of pattern I see that I need to work more in solid colors.…

Lett-lopi for Magnus #1

(Otherwise I might go under-ground, lol!) Magnus has been asking me for a really warm winter sweater in “real” wool – the untreated,…

The big sweater / Stortröjan
Seriously – the more I look at this, the more I like it! ^.^ I’m a huge fan of odd construction! The question is, do I want to do this in Drops Big Delight, or something else? I do like the colors, but rarely use wool without superwash… Hm. I might see a visit to…

Arvid & DNA
About a week ago I visited my friend and her lovely Arvid, who is now 6 months old! Besides cuddling I got myself some lovely shots of him, being a model for a couple of my sweater designs! First out is Arvid in DNA, knitted in Madeleine tosh merino, color Cedar. He is just too…
