A dress for my niece

I just had to knit this dress, and what's better than giving it to my little niece for christmas? It's made from the pattern "Fionas top" by Rasmilla. It's knitted in thin alpaca from Du Store Alpakka.



Another Dayflower Camisole

I just love this pattern, so I had to knit one more. This one is made with olive green Muskat from Drops.

Leggings

I just had to blog these, even they are almost 20 years old! I knitted these while I was a kid, and they were my first attempt on knitting with two colours. The pattern is a traditional norwegian one, and it's knitted in 100% wool. I think I was about 10 years when I made these, and with a little good will they still fit!

One skein can make a baby set!

This whole set is knit of one skein New Zealand lambswool, and it's made in size 6-9 months. I just love how this yarn just lasts...and lasts. I'll definately buy more of this once I find a suitable project!

The set is made for my future kids, if I'm lucky enough. It's light blue with a grey tint. The buttons are made of shells, and is about the same colour as the yarn, though they have a nice, darker shine to them.

The jacket, mittens and bonnet is from the book "Strikk til Nøstebarn", while the booties are a pattern from Dansk Mohair.
