Thursday evening I flew to Norway, to my daughter's. I took some yarn and needles with me, just in case. So I started knitting a hat - picture 1. Friday morning my daughter took me to a wool factury. Once in a while they have end-of-line sales. Sometim

My daughter Esther saw this design and I bought and knitted it for my granddaughter. See picture 1. The backside is exactly the same. As the pattern needed 92 stitches and I had only some thinner remnants in the right colours (black and yellow for the Oil

After the digitising the hockey designs for my granddaughter I started knitting for her mum. Kept me busy for a week. Knitted bottom to top in the round, easier to do the colourwork and apart from the cuffs knit stitch all the way.

Boarded my flight in time. Left the airport 20 minutes late, returned to Stavanger 40 minutes later after a technical error. Had to wait quite a while for maintenance to figure out if it could be repaired quickly but one hour later the flight was cancelle

The design I made for my granddaughter's hockeystick bag was also used for a small bag that holds a pair of reserve irons And as predicted I had to digitise quite a few other names and numbers. Having the settings and parameters for the first it takes h

Sometimes saving a dress seems to make sense. Just recently it did. My elder daughter discovered a dress I made in 1963. I saved it as I thought it would one day be nice to use the cotton in a quilt. Well, she tried it on and kept it. See picture 1

Knitted a present for my granddaughter. She loved it. I have knitted simple colourwork lately, but a pattern like this I had not tried for a very l o n g time. The pattern is from a book by Linka Neumann called 'Villmarks Gensere'. There is an En

Made two more baby dresses. The first one was gone before I even took a picture, the second showed earlier. I must say I like the number #2 the best. So here are #3 and #4 and a picture of the three of them.

Was a bit in a hurry to embroider two more towels for my acquaintance and do some sewing at the same ttime as I am running a bit behind schedule. The embroidery looked good so I proudly folded the towel to wrap it up. Hmmm ... I had stitched it on the bac

Too hot to knit, so I upcycled one of my dad's shirts (he died in 2011). I got a new sewing machine in March and need to keep the user's manual close, as the brand is not the one I have been using since 1980. So I push the wrong buttons now and agai

During the last couple of months I've done a bit of knitting. The two green ones (colour looks grey-ish in pic #6) are made of a cone from which I knitted two others - I am happy to say I have just enough left to knit a hat. The wine coloured one is t

During the last five months I have not done much as far as embroidery is concerned. Years ago (Feb 1984) I knitted jumpers for both my daughters with their names on the back. See pict 2. Last week the younger daughter reminded me of it and asked if I c
