Letzte Woche Montag war mein Glückstag! Der Garnladen Sommerfuglen hatte drei Workshops mit Lene Holme Samsøe organisiert und die waren natürlich SOFORT ausverkauft (glücklicherweise gab es eine Absage und genau die Karte hab ich dann noch bekommen – Glück muss man haben). Falls dir ihr Name so spontan nichts sagt: Lene hat Bücher wie Edle Maschen, Feminine Knits, Essentially Feminine…
Yes, I was in Berlin. Yet again. After having been to Berlin last month to meet up with Arne & Carlos, I this time visited some dear friends of ours together with my boyfriend. Of course there was a little time to do at least some knitting related things. — Jep, ich war schon wieder in Berlin. Nachdem ich letzten…
A while ago I’ve been nominated for the “Liebster”-Award (Favourite-Award) by Madame Flamusse, modified the challenge a little and answered three of her questions. Now it is my time to pass it on and ask three other bloggers to answer my three questions: And my questions are: 1. What has your knitting “career” be like so far and what is…
For my birthday last year I received a book from my friend by Arne & Carlos, which I wrote about on the blog. The book is called “Knitting Norwegian Style” where they present knitting projects inspired by old traditional Norwegian knits. A great book! I already wrote about it back in January.

I just showed them the three colours (white, blue and light pink), said that this was for my boyfriend and had them guess what it was. There were some good guesses, but most of all I received wondering questions like “Pink? For a guy? What could that…
Madame Flamusse from Wollerausch nominated me for the “Favourite Award – discover new blogs”. Wow, thank you, I feel honoured! I must admit I’m not great with chain messages/posts, but as I enjoy to get to know new things about other bloggers and I’d like to promote and show some other blogs, I will of course participate. I will, however, shorten…
I will have to try to knit something with Tweed yarn soon. Very soon. For quite a while I’ve been sneaking around different Tweed yarn, but never had a suitable project at hand, if you know what I mean. But then this happened: I won a whole book with projects knit with Tweed yarn! Carina from Häkelmonster had put up…
The new year starts with a couple of new projects and some that I have had on the needles for quite a while: Dieses Jahr beginnt mit ein paar neuen Projekten, allerdings auch ein paar, die bereits seit einer Weile auf meinen Nadeln sind: Currently in progress / Gerade in Bearbeitung: The blue sweater is also still in the works.…
You know already that one of my New Year’s resolutions is to practice stranded colourwork. The other day I sat with Arne & Carlos’ book “Knitting Scandinavian Style” as they have plenty of stranded colourwork projects in the book and I have long been wanting to knit something from it. Then my boyfriend sat down next to me on the…
