  • FO: Hopp

      Here we go then! The third installation in my Tied together collection is finished. Damn, it was a struggle to finally get this right! After the initial battle there still was some tweaking to do, and not to mention to write the pattern. Phew! This design is a bit more intricate than what I…

  • Ny Knitty!

        The new Knitty is out, and my time on the front page is over! Boy, was that exciting! I’ll definitely try and submit to them again in the future! 🙂 I think the cardigan Agata  is my favorite in the new issue – I might be looking at yarn for that one tonight! The…

  • Pånyttfödd: Fjäril

    One of the patterns I’ve planned to “fix up” for a while is Fjäril – even though the testing of the pattern went well the first time around, I noticed from the feedback that the sleeves were too big. So, after updating the pattern to improve the fit of the sleeves and armhole I had…

  • FO: Abigail Hood

      Winter is coming! Soon it’s time to dig out all the hats and mittens! 🙂 This is a test knit for the designer –  I knew immediately that I wanted a hat like this when I saw the photos! Too bad that I had to knit it two times; I discovered that the given…

  • Färg!

          I’ve finally made up my mind about my color choice for the Color Craving KAL. Choosing two colors is easy, but when I need to add a third my life gets so much more complicated for some reason! 🙂 Pink Malabrigo Sock + dark bluish green Cascade Heritage + light greenish blue…

  • WIP: Trio 3 (Trio del 3 på gång!)

    Here I’m knitting away on the third installation of Tied together – the yarn is Madeline Tosh Vintage in the color Lapiz. Gorgeous! This is the only brand I’ve come across that is available in this wonderful strong and bright blue. At first it feels surprisingly heavy to work with, but one gets used to…

  • Even more Fager! (Ännu Fagrare!)

    Here comes a couple of photos from the test knit of my pattern Fager! Isn’t it such a treat to see how a pattern turns out when knitted up in many different colors? 🙂   ***   Här kommer några bilder från teststickningen av mitt mönster Fager! Är det inte spännande att se hur ett…

  • Riot

    Hooray for color!   I’ve worked from the free pattern Riot, except for the order of the colors. This is a fantastic way to use up smaller scraps of yarn – not a single end to weave in. These photos are from when I was halfway through – after some fierce knitting I’m actually finished.…
