Dåpsgavesett og nok et par pirate mittens..


Nå har jeg altså slitet meg gjennom et lite sett i str. 1 år som har blitt dåpsgave til en liten frøken.. Tror den ble godt mottatt, i hvertfall fikk jeg mye skryt av gjestene og det er jo alltid koselig da!
Dette er min første jakke, så jeg måtte ha eksperthjelp av min flotte grandtante. Er det noen sak?! Tusen tusen takk for hjelpen :)

I have been working my way through a tiny jacket and skirt size 1yr, which was a christening gift for a little girl. I think it was well received, at least many of the guests complimented me, which is always a nice thing :) This was my first knitted jacket, so i had to have expert help from my aunt. Thank you ever so much for helping me!

The jacket


Ååå de søte små gulerot knappene som en liten detalj bak på seleskjørtet..

Aww, those cute little carrot buttons as a small detail on the back of the skirt..


Også siste par med pirate mittens ferdige, LSK fan skulle disse altså være til :)

And my last pair of pirate mittens for now, it was again for a LSK football fan :P

Christmas swap pakke mottatt!!


Today I received an amazing parcel from Linda in the US. And i LOVE it!! Chocolate I love, purple I love, shiny yarns I love and bamboo needles i LOVE!! Linda, this is such a great gift!! THANK YOU!


I had to take a picture of this, which amongst the needles, yarn, pendant, pattern and chocolates is my favorite in this package.. :) I have never seen this before, I wish we had stuff like this in Norway, it looks SO GOOD! Don't think i will share this with anyone... or maybe i have to..

It is a hot chocolate mix with tiny marshmallows and chocolate chips by the way ;)


It was hard to get a picture of the pendant that shows how beautiful it is. The purple color resembles the one in the picture underneath, but the amazing shinyness and colors inside comes out above i think..


I think this will be this year's christmas eve jewelry, I just have to buy some clothes to match it :D

Thank you for a wonderful package once again Linda! The chocolates tasted great, I am not sure if i have the heart to have a go at the hot chocolate mix.. It looks to good to finish :P

Now I just have to wait and see if the package I sent will arrive the UK safe and sound..

Vinkartongveske, votter og en liten body..


Så var omsider vinkartongvesken fra forrige innlegg dekorert og overlevert! mottaker var superfornøyd, og da blir jo jeg det også :)

The wine-carton bag from before is finished and given to the person who ordered it, she's happy, so then I'm happy too :)


*go viking*


Fuglemammas omslagsbody fra Myk Start i New Zealand lammeull fra 123 knit. Godt fornøyd, men for et slit. Blir ikke en sånn en på pinnene igjen med det første..

A little body from a book called "myk start". I'm happy with the results, but I am not putting another pair on my needles any time soon!..


Også er et par pirate mittens til ferdig, da er det jo bare ett par igjen!! Skal bli godt å bli ferdig med alle disse bestillingene..

Another pair of pirate mittens done, only one pair to go!! I'm looking forward to finishing all these orders..
