Lovikka mittens for N

Years ago I bought pink lovikka yarn on sale (I don't even remember where now). My earlier attempts to finish mittens for N has turned into UFOs so a restart was needed.

I also felt for a quick project for the Holidays. The pattern is from this book. The hat is actually also from that book and a FO 2010. The scarf was made 2009 - maybe.

Being pink they were quickly accepted. She actually decided herself to also put on the scarf and the hat that I've made earlier.

In the future I'll maybe do stuff that matches.

Summer dress for N

At some point this lovely cotton yarn followed me home and was turned into a summer dress for N. Here she is at my grandmothers 90th birthday.

Danish design and made on 2.5 mm, the yarn is from Marias garn (I don't remember the name now)

Happy Birthday Dad - 70 years

What do you give to someone how has everything he needs? Something knitted of cause!

I bought the yarn at Marias during the first Drop yarn sale this spring. It's a classic alpaca yarn and I used the Classic Camel vest from Knitting Daily.

With classic leather buttons it tirned out great and the size was perfect. (I did the last finishing after he tried it on just to be on the safe side).

Eco cotton sweater for N

I made the sweater using the eco cotton yarn I bought on sale earlier this year. I used a combination of two patterns from the book "Miss Bea's dressing up". I took the Tinkerbell Sweater flower but used the Hula Hula Sweater for the gauge.

The yearn feels good and N enjoyes it.

Mosaic Yoke Jacket completed

Neckline re-done and ready to use (I'll wash it some other time)
Lovely yarn, warm and soft.
I had to change the needles size, I used 4.5 mm, 5.25 for the pattern part and 4.0 mm for the edging.

just one more row.....

soon ready :-)

Chevalier mittens and 4.7m

The mittens are completed, very soft and warm, with 4.7 meters of yarn remaining.
Time for a new "subway project", maybe now I should knit socks?
