These have been done for quite some time. But due to a lot problems with my computer, I haven’t been able to post them :(

Pattern: Vespergyle mittens by Elinor Brown :)

Opinion: Great pattern, very easy to memorise and very nice result! I might do it again sometime ;)

Modifications : I went up a couple of needle sizes and chose thicker yarn than the pattern asked. I also added length about 5 rounds more.

They now belong to my Rasmus. And even though they very extremely fun and easy to knit! The best thing about them, is hearing him brag to everybody he knows, about them! :D He still wears them.. and it’s 20 degrees celcius outside!

Here are a couple of pictures from the process. Please note that the colours are more accurate on the top ones.

For more info, comment on this post or tjek out my Ravelry.

I must admit that my craftiness and urge to be creative doesn’t limit itself to just knitting :) When I was a kid and teenager I spend many hours cutting cardboard, like the to works below. On and off I take it up again.

For my grandmother and grandfather I have cut out a Christmas crib.

And for Rasmus mother I have cut out this one, H. C. Andersen’s fairytale The Snow Queen :) I hope she likes it. I am so happy to have a mother in law who is nice to me, that I just want to show her how found I am of her all the time!

Here are some pictures from the proces
