First knitted shawl!

It has been a while since I finally managed to get around and block this shawl, and with that actually managet to get it done. It's just due to my lazyness. ;) The shawl was done knitting before the accident, though...







The yarn I used is Sandnes Garn's grey Kitten Mohair (70055), and I used almost one ball (50g). Kneedles where 9 mm, if I remember correctly.

On hold...

I know I haven't been very good at updating this blog in ages and ages. I guess I've just been busy or something. I have been knitting, and even managed to get some projects done, but at the moment all my knitting is on hold.

We have actually had some really nice weather this summer, and in June I brought my knitting to the park, and spent some time there reading and knitting and relaxing. It's a nice thing to do, you know. In the picture here, taken some time in June, I'm knitting on my shawl (which is almost done, I just need to fasten the yarn ends and block it) and reading the book Villskudd by Gudmund Vindland.

The reason for me not knitting these days is that I was in a car accident only five days ago. I'm happy to be alive and all that, but am still in great pain, and am eating pain killers. I feel tired almost all the time, and most things takes a bit of time.

I am looking forward to being so painfree I can knit again. I miss it!

Blue shawl

I've started my project for OktoberROSA: I'm making a blue crocheted shawl. The crocheting needle is one of my new ones, 10mm. :D
