Pot holders

I knitted these pot holders this Christmas/New year.

I stareted with the snowman pot holers. It was so fun that I wanted to continue knitting. I did not have more garn at home so I was a little shaky not to go on kniting. Then I remember that I should have started on those green ones more then ten years ago. I knew that they wasn´t finished. Desperate I started looking in my stuff for this woork. The problem was that I have moved it around sometimes and I did not know where to look for it. I did find it in the end and I finished it. Qute for easter, don´t you think? I did not have to worry about started on the white and black one, I made sure to go buy some more yarn just waiting to turn into another cupple of pot holders.





Who knows, mayby I start on another pair of pot holders, the yarn is waiting, or... maybe I get back to the sewing again. Just can´t make my mind up :-)








Have a nice week, Elisabeth

A little sewing and a litle knitting

I had some nice fabric that I wanted to make a little hand bag of, and it turns out like this. A realy sweet one I think.

Have you ever got a patter you don´t understand? Well, I did. I had order a beautiful wool yarn who was hand dyed and hand spun for making me a shawl. It was a little hard for me to understand what the patter should be like as it was written in english (for me, better with swedish). As you se I did not give up trying to make it, just needed some time, lol

Here you can see how the patter turned out, it is a star patter that I belief is called estonia star( hope I remember rigth)

Now I had the yarn by mail, and isen´t it beautiful? The yarn is named - soft rainbow-

I order the yarn at Mia´s Esty shop -www.esty.com/shop/vikevira

So far so good, just loving it!

Until then, Elisabeth
