Bleeding!

I've made a shortsleeved sweater with indigo cotton yarn and it bled, enormously! After finishing I washed it a couple of times and it bled even more. And then when I blocked it I realised that it had shrunk and there was no elasticity in the rib anymore. I tried to fix it by sewing elastic into the rib but it didn't work.

Then I sew a new blue skirt with dots. It's a bit see-through and I didn't know and still don't know how to put in a zipper. Can anyone help me?

Min överskottsfärgade tröja är klar. Efter tvätt tappade den formen och blev kort med slapp resår. Detta försökte jag åtgärda genom att sy på ett resårband. Usch!

Jag har också sytt en prickig kjol. Den blev lite genomskinlig och trots anvisningar kunde jag inte få i dragkedjan snyggt. Kan någon hjälpa mig?

Finished!

Something new on the blog at last! I've finished my white shawl with pattern from Land magazine. I've made a hundred mistakes, but I love it. I should have had it 33 years ago when I got married........

Tee-tee yarn is yum-yum yarn!

Nu äntligen blir det lite nytt på bloggen. Jag har stickat färdigt Land-sjalen. Under resans gång har jag gjort många fel, men trots det är den ljuvlig och jag älskar den- en riktig bröllopssjal!

Tee-teegarnet är ett gosegarn!

Farmer´s Market Bag

Älskade att sticka den här kassen! Mönster av Elisabeth Taylor.
I absolutely adored knitting this bag. It turned out exactly as I wanted it to. I added one report on the top. I used smaller needles and two strands of my thin Russian yarn.

Lady Sweater

Stickade i storlek XS (har M annars) och den är nästan ändå för stor! Härligt att slippa sy ihop den!
I’m quite satisfied to have finished this project. Nice to have no seams to make! I knitted it in X small( I’m a medium size normally) and it is almost too big….
Yarn: DROPS alpaca. Pattern by Pamela Wynne.

Wristlets

Muddar i rosa (ser lite beiga ut på bild) babycashmerino, mönster av Nina Sagulin.
I missed two rows in the pattern, but I still think it looks quite good.
I quote my husband when he took the photograph:
“You’ve made many nice things, but these were TOO MUCH!”
I was given the yarn and the pattern at a knitting camp, and I would never have chosen the pink colour otherwise.

Crosswise Little Cardigan

Stickad kofta i mönster och garn från Färgkraft - gillar färgen.
My second crosswise knitting. I didn’t take notes during the knitting as I should have done, so the two parts had become more identical than they did. But I like the colour though.

Crocheted Shawl

Jag har virkat en enkel sjal av garn från en rea-låda.
I’ve crocheted a simple cotton-shawl from yarn that I found at a sale recently. It was easy to make and I needed that now while I’m studying, and have to concentrate on many things at the same time. I quite like it!
