Ok, no posting all summer, hmm... that wasn't supposed to happen. What have i been doing? Well took some timetravel. My hobbies this summer have consentrated on vikings. I have made viking outfits to everybody in the family. This is a picture of me in my outfit, not a good picture, but the best of 3. Have to get more pictures. We were at the Hornbore ting in hamburgsund in sweden last weekend. Lovely place. Next weekend I'll be in Berkåk at the rennebumartnan craft show also as viking, with my viking group Starfa.
I finished the may socks in Sokker 2008 but I cant seem to understand the june pattern... Hmm. I guess I need to make nålebundne socks instead... or... No cant give up yet... Promise to update sooner... promise...

Meet Latte and Kaksi
Three weeks ago we got another familymember called Kaksi. She is a now 12 weeks old golden retriver labrador retriver mix. She is going to be a guide dog for blind people in two years if she passes the test then. Right now she is ours and we enjoy this baby very much. This picture is from the day we got her and she has grown considerably since then. (Her fiber value is yet to be determined.)

Hemmelig venn April
Look at what my postman brought me today! A secret pal gift from hobby boden. The sock yarn is the same I was thinking of byuing at my LYS on friday, but didn't buy, because I thought I souldn't use more money on yarn, and then it came in the post, love it. There was some chocolate and tea too, but most of it's already gone to a better place. The packet was beautifully wrapped and I think I'm going to do the same and use more time to make it look nice, its so nice to get so beautifull gifts...

Vennskapsteppe
Se på disse flotte lappene jeg fikk av Kdoris! Jeg kan nesten ikke vente med å sy teppet sammen... Dette er gøy og akkurat hva jeg trenger nå når formen ikke er på sitt beste.

Vennskapsteppe lapper
Nå har jeg fått de to første lappene til vennskapsteppe alongen! De er fra Jogusi og er kjempefine!
Jeg har selv strikket 6 lapper og koser meg med å lage mønstre, må riktignok jobbe med størrelsen. Det er vanskelig å strikke akkurat 20 cm...

Godt nytt år! Happy new year
We start the new year with a pattern. Thats a good start for the new year? I haven't made this pattern myself, my very good but blogless friend Hilde made it. She calls it her Bouncy hatt for a hopping happy new year.
Vi tar like godt å begynner det nye året med et nytt mønster. Er ikke de en god start liksom. Denne gangen har jeg ikke laget mønsteret selv, min gode blogløse veninne Hilde har laget dette: Hildes sprettlue for et hoppende godt nyttår!
Yarn: Viking Naturgarn two colors totally xgr.
Needles: 6mm
Cast on 3 stitches. Knit 1, yarn over, knit 2. Knit this way always adding a stitch after the first knitted stitch ank knitting the rest of the row. Alternate colors to your taste. When you have 65 stitches you stop increasing with the yarn overs and just knit for 14 more rows. Cast off. Sew the back seam.
Garn: Viking Naturgarn to farger x gr.
Pinner: 6mm
Legg opp 3 m. Øk en maske innenfor første maske i begynnelsen av hver pinne med et kast. Fortsett slik rillestrikking til du har 65 m på pinnen. Strikk nå 7 riller uten å øke og fell løst av. Sy baksømmen.

God Jul! Merry Chirstmas!
Da var det jul igjen. Her er juleblomstoppsatsen jeg laget. Mosen er fra hagen vår, vi har nemlig ikke gressplen, vi har mose...
And it's christmas again. This is the flower arrangement I made. The moss is from our garden, we don't have a grass lawn, we have moss...I have promised pictures of the house. The cardboard boxes are dissappearing and this is my new corner. It's in the corner of our living room and my favourite place in the house. I have my knitting here and the spinning wheel and of cource my laptop.
Some spinning done on christmas eve: It's 100% merino from a grab bag from Spindle and wheel. I have navaho plyed it.
Here is how the carded roving looks its so soft and easy to spin.
This is whats on my bosworth mini spindle. I got the fiber from a secret pal gift. It's green BFL and som sparkle, angelina I think. I have hand carded some and I'm spinning it to a thin single.

Online again!
Hi everyone, I'm back online. I havent had time to think about the nett the past couple of days. We are living in the new house, there are boxes everywhere, and bags and so on. But I am starting to see a bit of floor and table... So I guess I'm getting there. The strange thing is that christmas is in less than 10 days and I have no feeling of it. I haven't even had time for christmas gifts... But I feel the inspiration coming... I will have pictures soon of the new place and all...
