Me and the kids spent a few days at my dads house and had a lovely time exploring all the flowers, patting cats and eating outdoors. I even had some time to start a new knitting project. This will eventually (soon) turn into a little zippered baby vest for Ivar. At least I hope it will. I really hope it will. My last self-made project is currently on hold because of pattern issues (or the lack of a pattern).

The yarn is Blue Sky Alpacas Organic Cotton. I love how soft it is and how fast it knits up, but I worry about some future pilling.



Sorry for not blogging in a while. I have some updates and what better way to do is there but to show you some photos?


A lovely, yummy parcel from my Swedish Secret Pal (Hemlis) with luxorius chocolate and coffe. There is nothing left of this today...


The most recent parcel from my SP with 1-ply wool yarn from Ulspinneriet Öland (with a great scarf pattern) and a pair of beautiful Susanna's Ebony needles. I cannot wait to try all of this!


Tyra turned five this month and had at least two cakes and parties. She expressed some concern before her birthday. She said that she did not want to be five, since she do not care for becoming an adult. Tyra woke up relieved and happy to find that those thing does not happen overnight.
