the balls are back in town


The yarn balls, that is. I've been away for my holiday for the last 9 days, and it's been a stressful experience. We've been to Sweden and Finland (by mistake, actually) and have slept in 5 different locations. I've never had the time to really sit down and knit, so all I've produced over the last week and a half is nearly two arms and the upper part of a pant. I might have knitted about 50 grams, and I brought nearly 500 with me! I'd never planned to knit all of it, but I wanted to have something to chose from, if I was to start a new project.
The picture above is the arms I've mentioned. It's a little sweater for Elina, and it's made of Noro Kureyon Sock, in two different shades (219 and 229)
It's supposed to turn out as a raglan (some day..)

Well.. after I came home, I counted 31 balls of yarn, which I've bought during my vacation. Addicted, me?
Here's 28 of them, which are for me. The remaning 3 is a gift for someone who might "read" my blog.. ;)

I've used my camera quite a bit while we were in Sweden:




Both pictures are from Teknikens Hus in Luleå, Sweden. Recommended for the playful!

Den genseren blir bare lekker! God idè å bruke 2 farger slik at du får striper :)

Sokkeermene er kanontøffe! Når jeg bare har strikket opp litt av garnet jeg allerede har i hus, tror jeg jammen jeg skal stjele ideen din!
