Towel and book

 This is what I am knitting now, washing cloth from Brittamis Design for strikkelystne.

I had to insert both of those picture to show the difference in color. The one above is taken outside while to other one is taken inside. The bluer one is true to the color of the yarn.

I bought this book the few days ago. It contains lot of good looking mittens so when autumn comes I will find left over yarn (and of that I have LOT) and start knitting mittens.

When I bought the book above I was tempted to buy a sock yarn to. I found a book that I bought many years ago but have never knitted anything from and decided to knit a toe up socks from it. I have just started on the toe of the first sock. But they will have to wait until autumn comes because now it is more fun to knit washing cloths with cotton yarn. 

My socks

are finished for some time ago. It took short time to knit them and rather nice to knit from the yarn. Sometimes simple things can be fun to knit.

 It was fun to see the stripes form and nice that I didn´t have to measure anything, "After the white stripe the heel is knitted".

When the heel was done I just knitted over the little toe and then started the decrease. So simple. The socks are very comfortable to wear because the wool is soft.

Eurocup knit

It is always so nice to knit. I found the perfect project to knit when Eurocup in football began now in June. It is not possible for me to knit something complex when the game is on. In the yarn store Handprjón I saw this nice looking yarn and decided to try it.

The Ec project I decided to knit are socks made of this yarn seen above. On the label I could see how many stitches I had to cast on. Then I had to knit until the color of the yarn told me it was time to knit the heel. 

Now it is time to knit the heel and I have to decide what kind of heel I want to knit.

This summer

This summer I have been knitting this and that.

 I started a Norwegian sweater knitted in Sisu wich is a wool yarn from Sandnes yarn. The pattern is from Sandnes yarn to. The work goes slowly because it takes long time to knit a big sweater with small knitting needles. 

The autumn came from Rowan with one the most beautiful knitting magazine for the last few years. There are some number of sweaters and a scarf that I would like to knit that are in the magazine.

I did, of course, buy an coloring book like so many this summer. The one I bought are with insect because I know I would not have the patient to color all the leaves in the Secret garden book.

 I did crochet a table runner from yarn stash that I had had for a long time and did not know what to do with. This was a heap of small balls of cotton yarn. I used crochet needle no. 5 and did cast on enough stitches to fit the table and then I did crochet until all the yarn was finished. 

The latest thing I finished are those woollen socks. I knitted them from wool scraps and I think they came out nicely.
