Praline in Malabrigo sock

I treated myself with 3 skeins of Malabrigo sock (disguised as a birthday present to me) in Terracotta and Praline pattern.

and I'm off........

Glad påsk

 
 




Morfarskofta completed

I've finished the cotton striped cardigan.

It was a fast and fun knit. I bought one pink skein to make my soon 4-year old happier. She is entering the pink-era. I was reminded how boring it is to sew in threads. It feels like it takes longer then the knitting. However I'm pleased with the result and A liked it (apart from the green pocket).
Even the buttons are from my stash.

Cotton stripes

Taking yarn from my stash to make "Morfarströja med fickor" from Lene Holm Samsoe's book "Barnstickning på stickor 3,5 - 4".
The DK cotton stash is decreasing, I hope to have enough.

March UFO

I started First Aid many years ago. The model was nice in the picture but I don't think that it is "me".
Needs to be something different - at least completed.

I found the project in the "lower levels" of the UFO box. The digging also brought some other old UFOs back the the light. (scary)

Like watching paint dry....

........but a bit more fun (since I'll be able to wear it later).
I don't know what I did but after 2 days it's still not completly dry.
