Something old, something new...






Haven't posted anything for a long time... I don't really know if I'm being "visited" that much.. Besides, I got completely hooked on "visual journaling" and every minute spent on the computer was spent browsing web pages about this particular topic. Here is a great link to start with.

I started my own little journal and it is taking time away from knitting. A new passion on my part!I've put a couple of photoes from it here.

we went to the cottage for a few days during March break - and while we were up there I took some pictures of sweaters I've knitted earlier. The first one is a design from the well known Norwegian knitting designer Ellinor Flor. The second one is a pattern I knitted so long ago that I cannot remember the name of the design..The last one is the Telemark sweater - with some alterations in the pattern that I made...






I can't guarantee that my March socks will be finished this week, but I will try..
I have however made several more granny squares for my cotton throw, and I have almost finished the front for a little pillow to go with it. Here it is:


Last but not least: We bought another house! We are so excited (and up to our ears in loans, hehe)
