Knit, knitting, knits, knitted ...

As I started knitting classes last September I've got totally addicted to it!
My tiny crochetneedle is having a deep wintersleep.

Here are some of the projects I have been making the last months. 


Started with my first Lopapeysa!
Took a virtual knitting class at Craftsy from the famous Raga Eiriksdottir.

Totally happy with the result I started a second one.


Why not try a pair of socks? 

 

With the description found on this blog I was able to knit my first pair.


Bought beautiful yarn at Sock made by hand for the 2nd and 3rd pair ...
... growing a small addiction into sockknitting.


Minou is still very helpful taking care of my yarn.


On Sunday (once a month) I am joing the knitting club at Vrijstaat-O.


In December I took my crochet needle (size 4.5 instead of 0.75) again and started crocheting some christmaspresents using the starstitch.



My son asked me to knit him a fishermanssweater from the book: Visserstruien by Stella Ruhe. 
The pattern used for this one was URK 2.



Some new yarns from Bart&Francis are waiting to be transformed into something nice!

  4. Did you know that the pattern for your son's fisherman sweater is named after Urk, a little harbour town on the Ijsselmeer, known for it's fishing fleets?

    Love what you are doing!
