Fødselsdags strik-in hos Jane

Jane havde inviteret til fødselsdagsstrik-in, Heidi, Heidi's mor og jeg havde taget vores rokke med, for nu var det på tide at jeg fik lært at spinne på den dejlige Rok som Susi Nyholm har foræret mig. Det er min den lille, er den ikke fin?

Jane Had a knit-in at her birdthday, Heidi, her mum and I had brougth our spinningwhell's along. I were going to learn how to spin. The small wheel is mine I got it from Susi Nyholm. It is so cute.


























Janes have er fantastisk til at sidde og spinne i, her er det Heidi og hendes mor Inge der er igang.

Jane's garden is fabules for spinning, here is Heidi and her mum Inge spinning.

























det var det garn jeg fik spundet, jeg har brug for meget mere træning, heldigvis har jeg 800 g gotland at øve mig på.

This is the only yarn that I got spun, need more practis, lucky me I got 800 g of Gotland wool to practis on :)

























Anne lavede en stor bunke strikke gadges til mig :)

Anne made me this huge pile of markeres.
































Liv (Janes store datter) og hendes veninde lavede denne skønne hufflepuff taske til mig, alt hvad de ville have til gengæld var nogle Hogwards sokker, Og det skal de have, jeg vil lave Ann Kingstons pride sokker til dem.

Liv (the dougther of Jane) and a frind of her made this lovely hufflepuff bag for me, all that they wanted in return were Hogwards socks. Im going to make them some lovely Pride socks by Ann Kingston.
































Den anden side.

The other side.




























Jeg ville også farve sokkegran.
some of my sockyarn


























Jeg har brugt Mayflower garn, og silkefarve blandet med vand og eddike, derefter en tur i microovn i 8 min, en meget enkel måde at farve på.

I have used Mayflower yarn and silk dye to colour my yarn.

























Mig der farver :)

Me dyeing my yarn.

Et hæfte med sokker - a sock pattern book

I længere tid har jeg tænkt over at sælge mønstre, sokke mønstre for at være konkret. Jeg ved bare ikke helt hvordan jeg skal gribe det an.
I dag fik jeg så endelig en ide... Til september holder webstrikkerne strikkefestival i Silkeborg, der vil jeg præcentere mine kære med strikkesøstere for mit sokkehæfte (det er altså kun lavet som skitse, stadig ingen strikkeprøver).

For some time I have been thinking of selling some sock patterns, I just did not know how.
Today I got an idea... In september the Webstrikkerne is having an Knitting festival... Im going to precent my sockpattern book for my knittingsisters... (This is the idea, have not knittet any of it yet)

Knitting by Kaae

world knit in publicday - Helsinge

På webstrikkerne havde uldgalleriet inviteret til WKIP-dag. Og tak for det, det var en vidunderlige dag, hvor erfaringer og meninger blev delt i en hjertensvarm stemning.






Ja faktisk var stemningen så god, at der nu er lavet Strikkecafe i Uldgalleriet hver 2. lørdag. Mon ikke det er et besøg eller 10 værd :)









Et gyngefår - er det ikke sødt?







Vi strikkede i 2 grupper i butikken, efter snak om en stoledans (for at mødes med hinanden) blev vi enige om at sidde lidt her og lidt der, hvilket var en perfekt ide.







Og så til det søde, eller skal jeg sige det stærke, dette er verdens nok stærkeste bolcher, de er stærkt vanedannende.

Til alle jer strikkere i Helsinge Tak for sidst. Vi ses helt sikkert igen

Finaly I'd pull'd my self together and got this pattern for these tiny socks on paper. I have also made charts for the two other houses.

The basic of this pattern is from Emily Ivey' Wee Tiny Sock Swap. A Big thank you to Emily for letting me use her basic pattern.
