Ellen Christine

Husflidslaget her hadde kofteutstilling i helga. Då hadde vi også kafé og tombola, og vi starta vårlotteriet vårt.

Denne barnekofta strikka eg til lotteriet. Rakk akkurat å bli ferdig til helga – jobbar visst best under press…

Denne er strikka etter eit gammalt Sandnes-mønster : Ellen Christine.

Botnfargen er noko gammalt melert Smart-garn (donert til husflidslaget ein eller annan gong).

Eg ville ha litt mindre montering, så eg sette i gong med raglanfelling. Måtte trikse litt med fellingane på slutten, sidan halsen såg ut til å bli litt vid. Det ordna seg fint til slutt.

Fann til slutt knappar som passa fint også. Så håpar vi mange tek lodd hos oss Smilefjes

I just finished this cardigan. It will be a prize in a lottery. It is based on an old Norwegian pattern.

Koftestrikking

Eg er sjølvsagt med på koftebølga…

Dette er ei forsinka julegåve til ein bror. Veit ikkje kva mønsteret heiter. Broren fekk velge, og fann eit kofta på eit bilde av den danske "bonderøven".

Eg har teikna av mønsteret og nærmar meg slutten no.

Eg er også nesten ferdig med ei barnekofte i mønsteret "Ellen Christine". Denne skal vere gevinst i husflidslaget sitt vårlotteri.

For å minske monteringsoppgåva laga eg raglan på denne. Spent på korleis det vert til slutt – snart ferdig med knappestoplane no…

This is what I'm knitting for the moment. The green project will become a cardigan for one of my brothers. (It's a late Christmas present… hope to have it finished before the summer…)

The orange project it's a child sized cardigan. Made form a old Norwegian pattern.

We have an old tradition of knitted cardigans and sweaters here in Norway. And lately it's become very popular again. If you search on Pinterest for Norwegian knitting you'll find many lovely patterns.

After getting new snow at Easter it now feels like spring is finally here, so we can knit outdoors!

This hat should fit for babies 9 – 12 months.

I first made a smaller hat. Started with 81 st (one less bobble on each bobble row) and I made 9 bobble rows before decreasing. The decreasing and neck was made the same way as above.
