Weekend…

Yesterday was one of those days where you wish that you just had stayed in bed. After eating my breakfast I had made some coffee. The coffee was still on the plate, while I was just leaving the kitchen for a few minutes. However I completely

forgot the coffee, and a few minutes became 50 minutes. Went back to the kitchen, where I was meet by a fog of smoke. And there where no coffee left for me:(

I really liked my espresso-maker, bought in Italy this summer, and discovered they are slightly more expensive in Norway. But suppose I should be happy that the espresso-maker was the only thing that got destroyed. I’ve also just operated out a tooth which has made me a temporally “addicted” to pain killers:) All this made me therefore decide to leave the city and visit my sister and here family for a night. Which was lovely, despite the fact that my four-year-old nephew woke me up at 7 am a Saturday morning.

Some knitting has also been done this week. I’ve finished the garter rib of the Tangled Yoke. I ended up with the colour Wheat. When I saw the colour in real life, I liked it better than what I have seen in pictures. Believe the colour is a wise choice. I also decided to follow the pattern due to the seam stitch, wonder how it’s going to turn out. Wish you all a nice weekend.

 

I’ve got mail

Today my Interweave knits finally came. Decided to knit the Tangled yoke cardigan, just have to find out which colour I’m going to choose. Hopefully a trip to the yarn store tomorrow would make it clear. After seeing the Composed Mitts here, I just loved the colour combinations, and it’s been a very long time since a last did some colourwork.

I’ve finished my striped sweater, but I have to weave in the ends before posting some pictures. Also I’ve finished the offwhite Le’Slouch. Prefer the one which is a bit more slouchy, but I like the brown colour better. So since I had finished all my projects and still waiting on my IK fall, I’ve cast on for the Fetching Wristwarmers. A fun knit and a chance to use some leftovers.

 

Sunday

I’ve been down with a cold this weekend, therefore I haven’t done much apart from knitting. It’s my nephew’s birthday tomorrow, and I’ve made some socks for him. Found some 4ply soft from my stash and used a pattern from Pinnsvin design as my guide.

I’ve cast on for a new Le’ Slouch this week, trying to make this slightly more slouchy. Today I’ve also watched “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” for the first time. After all not so bad to be sick on a Sunday, but I really hopes that I’m better tomorrow, cause there’s just time to be sick.
