Fabelbukse

Først minstens Fabelbukse. Strikket i en fei på strikkemaskin.

First the wool tights I have knitted for my youngest son. Knitted up very fast on my knitting machine.

 

 

Shalom cardigan 

Så var det Shalom. En cardigan jeg falt for med en gang jeg så den. Men jeg måtte spesialtilpasse den, da mønsteret tilsvarer 34" i overvidde. Og det er alt for smalt for meg. Jeg ble godt fornøyd med resultatet.

Then Shalom, a cardigan I fell for as soon as I laid my eyes on it. But I had to upsize it, because the pattern only makes a bust width 34", which is way too small for me. I am very happy about the result for this one.

Bullseye og rosa sjal / Bullseye and pink shawl.

Bullseye av Jennifer Hansen er ferdig. Jeg har brukt Evilla og pinner 4,5 mm. En veldig ny måte og strikke på, men også veldig artig.

Bullseye by Jennifer Hansen is done. I have used Evilla and needles 4,5 mm. A very new but still facinating way to knit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Det rosa sjalet fant jeg mønster på i boka "Slip maskerne løs" av Lotte Kjær. Her har jeg brukt pinner 8 mm og 100 gram Mohair Boucle. Oktober er jo måneden for "Rosa Sløyfe" aksjonen, så det passet bra med et rosa sjal nå.

I found the pattern for this shawl in the book "Slip maskerne løs" by Lotte Kjær. Needles 8 mm and 100 grams of Mohair Boucle. October is the "Pink Ribbon" month, so I think a pink shawl was great right now.
