It’s really been ages since I last blogged. Sorry! Lately things have been quite busy here, but not too busy to do some knitting, especially socks and now I need to show all of them off. Here are my lovely Laurelhurst socks in purple and black with always 2 rows per stripe. The pattern is [...]

Snow-white rose-red socks
Posted in Drawings, knitting, pattern, self made..., Whatever on April 13, 2012 | 5 Comments »
Finished another pair of beaded socks today. They were fun and really easy to knit and are also quite comfy to wear. As usual I used 2,5mm (US1 I think) needles. The yarn is a stretchy sock yarn in pure white called Lana grossa Meilenweit 100 Cotton Stretch. The beads are Rayher Rocailles transp. gelüstert [...]
Bead Socks
Posted in knitting, pattern, self made..., Whatever on April 9, 2012 | 1 Comment »
As promised here is the pattern for my bead socks. For the socks I used 2,5 needles (US1 I think), my fav. sock yarn (Lana grossa Meilenweit 100 Cotton Stretch) and of course matching beads (Rocailles 2,6 mm opak gelüstert gemischt.) Before starting to knit put the beads on your yarn. If you do it [...]

Just a tiny short post to show off my new knitting project. After eyeing the pattern on rav. for a couple of days, I started it on the spur of the moment last Thursday while watching a movie called “Kokowääh“. (The movie was amazingly good and superfun, btw). It’s a going to be a wonderful [...]
Super Mario & Goomba Mittens and some more…
Posted in knitting, pattern, self made..., Whatever on February 29, 2012 | 2 Comments »
Today I finally finished a pair of mittens for K. Yay, me! He has been nagging for a little over a year to knit him Goomba mittens to go with his Goomba Hat. Originally he wanted one with a “healthy” Goomba (like the one I did on the left) and one with a squished Goomba, [...]
Simple Cabled Hat

Today I finished knitting a rather simple cabled hat for mum. I used size 6 (US 10) needles and the yarn is Lana Grossa Uno (1 1/2 skeins). Though the yarn looks great, feels wonderfully soft and awesome to wear, it is a real pain to knit with. Still I love how the hat turned [...]

Just a tiny short post to show of my finished cardigan: Waves Cardigan Isn’t it pretty? I finished it yesterday and just love how it turned out. Also it fits perfectly. It will be fun to wear it over short sleeved shirts in spring. Right now it’s a little too chilly for that… Anyway, I [...]
My red convertible mittens
Posted in audio, knitting, LibriVox, pattern, personal, self made... on December 4, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Today I finished my red convertible mittens and they turned quite well, though I’m not yet sure I’ll be wearing them much. Usually I prefer fingerless mittens as they let me use my ipod quite comfortably. But the weather is definitely getting too cold for those and so I just had to try convertible ones [...]
Blackrose Mittens

Just a tiny little post today to show off my Blackrose mittens: Blackrose Mittens They turned out really well, are great to wear and look simply amazing. It’s the same pattern I already used for the socks I blogged about in my previous post. There is only one thing I’d do differently… that is, should [...]
More knit socks and some poetry

Today I finally finished the pair of socks, I started to knit last month during a 4 hour train ride to V. to attend a congress there. That’s why I’m calling them by the terribly creative name “Train- Socks”. The pattern looks quite complicated and intricate but was supereasy and fun to knit. In fact [...]
