I might have been silent in cyber space but in IRL I’ve been knitting like the wind. The problem is that I just can’t bring myself to buy a proper camera for some reason. I hate blurry cell phone pictures but they’ll just have to do for now…it’s been three months since last post so I think it’s about time. So here it goes blurry pictures of Cherry .
I love this cardigan and the fit is perfect, maybe just maybe if I was to do this one again I would add some length to the part below the ribbon. I’m also wearing my Swedish squirrelly mittens on these pictures, a beautiful pattern and I just adore them. The problem is that I knit them while sitting in the dark and therefore I managed to knit with two different colors or maybe two different shades of a color. Pat came up with a clever solution for people not to notice; keep my hands as far apart as possible
This is as far away I can manage.
Problematic when shopping though, how to get that leek into the basket? Also very muscle demanding when you have bought both milk and flour.
Another garter stitch elephant done, hopefully we can keep this one away from the liquor.
The previous one had to move to Jenny’s after repeatedly getting drunk and throwing up gooey elephant puke in my favorite shoes… and worst of all he was honking that horrible wind of change song all night long.
The cardigan is adorable!

I love your & Pats sense of humor. Maby you can sell those mittens as a workout tool. Carrying the shopping bags like that looks like a good arm workout. Love U.

Hej Anncie!
Du är ju verkligen superduktig på det där med stickning! Skitsnygga grejer alltså!
Hoppas allt är bra med dig för övrigt!
Hälsningar från Umeå
