Having yarn palpitations!

My dear dear dearest mom has sent me the Cashmerino wool I ordered! The colors are just as lovely as I hoped! Can't wait to get started on my ripple blanket, as seen on Attic24's blog!

Got some more yarn from the yarn shop in Asker, so now I have enough for the whole project:

Easter project 2015

I actually got my project done during Easter break!

New bags and new projects

For my 50th birthday, my mom sent me my great grandma's knitting bag, full of her old bone knitting needles and old tatting!

And my friend Julia made my old wool blazer (anno 1980 or so) into a cool bag! Am still trying to find a "before" photo (picture shoulder pads), but here is the finished project at least!

I am amazed!

And here's my newest project: a shawl with the beautiful silk/wool yarn from Du Store Alpacca.

I like this project because it's going quickly plus the yarn is so soft and pretty!
