Vannkopper / Chicken Pox

Tror bildene taler for seg selv. Men litt morsomt har det også vært da. Jeg kom hjem fra nattevakt og minsten skulle fortelle meg at han har fått vannkopper, og utbryter: "Mamma, æ ha fått kopper kaff" (kaff = kaffe). Ikke lett å skille mellom vannkopp og kaffekopp. :smile:

I think the photos speak for them selves. The funny thing is what my youngest son told me when I came home from my nightshift. He was going to tell me that he have Chicken Pox, and said: "Mummy, I have coffe cups". (the Norwegian name for Chicken Pox is vannkopper, and directly translated that is water cups). :smile: So it is not easy to tell the difference between a cup for water and a cup for coffe).

Spidey-lue / We call him Spidy hat - Pumpkinknits
Garn/yarn: Perfect Sandnes
Pinner/Needles: 4 mm

Jeg strikket med tykkere garn og pinner enn angitt, så jeg gjentok mønsteret bare 3 ganger, dvs jeg la opp 96 m.
I knitted with thicker yarn and needles than requested, so I cast on 96 st and repeated the pattern three times.
