Well, I haven't had much opportunity to go online and update this blog..

Being at work means sharing an office with people, and the free moments one has to hang around, one doesn't really go and concentrate on writing about knitting.


Update on the weather: 2nd of May, was in Reykjavik overnight and am going back to the woods later on today (so what the hell am I doing in front of a computer, hey?)There is STILL f-ing snow on the ground outside..!First when I saw the layer of snow out of my window on April the 1st mind, I thought it was a practical joke from the weather station to celebrate April fool's day. But no joke is THAT fun if it lasts too long...Anyway.
A funny thing happened the other day.
I was guiding a tour at the museum, incidentally wearing the so-called Carnaby skirt I knitted recently (for the first time!) and after we'd finished a girl stepped up to me and said (quote:) "Hey, nice carnaby skirt you got there"The world of ravelry is that small as well... :o)

So this girl, darkraven12 as her pseudo goes, is a member of the international knitting community I belong to and was on a visit to Iceland for the first time. What a funky coincidence :o)

After Gunna showed me to make peningataska and I finished my first one (see under) I decided to buy more (and different) wool (kambgarn, also the real stuff) to make some more and/or different ones.

Made one since:In progress which I'm very happy about, and have a new jumper on the way, my first plotulopi jumper. I also made yet another pair of mittens just to keep on the roll :o)Nice sunset behind Alice's...
