Fødselsdags strik-in hos Jane





















Jane havde inviteret til fødselsdagsstrik-in, Heidi, Heidi's mor og jeg havde taget vores rokke med, for nu var det på tide at jeg fik lært at spinne på den dejlige Rok som Susi Nyholm har foræret mig. Det er min den lille, er den ikke fin?

Jane Had a knit-in at her birdthday, Heidi, her mum and I had brougth our spinningwhell's along. I were going to learn how to spin. The small wheel is mine I got it from Susi Nyholm. It is so cute.


























Janes have er fantastisk til at sidde og spinne i, her er det Heidi og hendes mor Inge der er igang.

Jane's garden is fabules for spinning, here is Heidi and her mum Inge spinning.

























det var det garn jeg fik spundet, jeg har brug for meget mere træning, heldigvis har jeg 800 g gotland at øve mig på.

This is the only yarn that I got spun, need more practis, lucky me I got 800 g of Gotland wool to practis on :)

























Anne lavede en stor bunke strikke gadges til mig :)

Anne made me this huge pile of markeres.
































Liv (Janes store datter) og hendes veninde lavede denne skønne hufflepuff taske til mig, alt hvad de ville have til gengæld var nogle Hogwards sokker, Og det skal de have, jeg vil lave Ann Kingstons pride sokker til dem.

Liv (the dougther of Jane) and a frind of her made this lovely hufflepuff bag for me, all that they wanted in return were Hogwards socks. Im going to make them some lovely Pride socks by Ann Kingston.

The other side.




























Jeg ville også farve sokkegran.
some of my sockyarn


























Jeg har brugt Mayflower garn, og silkefarve blandet med vand og eddike, derefter en tur i microovn i 8 min, en meget enkel måde at farve på.

I have used Mayflower yarn and silk dye to colour my yarn.

























Mig der farver :)

Et hæfte med sokker - a sock pattern book

I længere tid har jeg tænkt over at sælge mønstre, sokke mønstre for at være konkret. Jeg ved bare ikke helt hvordan jeg skal gribe det an.
I dag fik jeg så endelig en ide... Til september holder webstrikkerne strikkefestival i Silkeborg, der vil jeg præcentere mine kære med strikkesøstere for mit sokkehæfte (det er altså kun lavet som skitse, stadig ingen strikkeprøver).

For some time I have been thinking of selling some sock patterns, I just did not know how.
Today I got an idea... In september the Webstrikkerne is having an Knitting festival... Im going to precent my sockpattern book for my knittingsisters... (This is the idea, have not knittet any of it yet)

Knitting by Kaae
5 hotte sokker
5 hot socks

- sok med tær ~sock with toe's


Jeg kunne godt bruge noget feed back, hvad tænker I der ude?
I could use some feed back what are you people thinking?

Tak for hjælpen - Thankyou for helping :)

Hsks5 - Dream Swatch

Im making a headband for the next Quidditch match, It were an idea one of the Puff's came up with. I'll poste a picture later on, my camera just need to get some food first ;) back to the knitting.

The picture is here, Look at the little badger paw on my new needles from Miranda Moonstone of Ravenclaw... They are so cute...

The yarn is Opal Hundertwasseres werk 956, I think it got kinde of a Hufflepuff immage.

The Headband is done, love the way this Hundertwassers yarn stripes and makes tiny spots of black.

Its hard to take pictures of one self ;) Ok I know the headband did not match the close I was wering that day...
