The month started with me attending my very first Baby & Knit event at Skabagtig yarn store in Aalborg. It was so nice to nerd about yarn and knitting again. I was surrounded by temptations, like these mini sock skeins from Hedgehog Fibers. It was so hard not to go crazy but I managed only to buy some merino/ cotton blend for a pair of baby pants.
I finally finished my top down sweater knitted in lovely merino tweed and knitted Stay soft shawl (by Veera Välimäki with some lovely stash yarn - Shetland soft and merino tweed.
February also brought a new baby into the world. My friend gave birth to daughter number 2 and I just had to pull out my pink yarn and knit something. I themed lambswool with a strand of hand-dyed yarn (party with glitter) for a perfect hooded hat (design by Pickles.no) that she'll wear when winter comes again.
It was also the month that winter truly arrived Denmark with below zero degrees and snow - and oh yeah amazing light too. I wore my favourite wool (including my topdown Riddari)
I also spend time yarn and knit nerding with yarn mags and my mum.
UFO/ frogged?
My Miss Rachel's yoke isn't quite right... I'm not sure if I have enough base colour (it was a kit) and the fit is a bit off. Strongly considering unravel and reknit- topdown for a better fit. Really like the colours and the yarn.
Plans for marts
- Finished the baby overalls I have on my needles
- Unravel Miss Rachel's yoke
- Plan next baby knitting project
- Decide which big project to start
