Dark Twisted Stitches: november 2014
http://darktwistedstitches.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
I'm not much of a gamer, but I used to play DnD back in the days. So I just had to make a homage to roleplaying and gaming on this cute little long-sleeved t-shirt I made for my youngest. The pattern is from my own head, an easy raglan knit top-down. How to salvage such a misery? For my part, it involves lots of swearing, and possibly alcohol. Being pregnant at the time, I substituted the latter with very loud music. (The teenager complained. He does that.) So now what? The arrows show the stitches that ...

Dark Twisted Stitches: august 2014
http://darktwistedstitches.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
During the summer I went on a major sewing spree, so not a lot were knitted. Plus this summer was incredibly warm! I'm a northerner, 30 is just way too hot for me. Luckily my dear new little treasure was born just before the heatwave set in. She also had the great sense to be born the day before the new paternity leave rules took effect, so daddy gets his 14 weeks of paid paternity leave after all, woohoo! I did finish a baby blanket. For my dear little one. Cute huh? I've also knitted three shorties and...

Dark Twisted Stitches: september 2013

Ooops, is it her birthday? Julaften på kjerringa er min konstante tilstand. Sånn går det når man outsourcer hukommelsen sin til mobiler, smarttelefoner og - den største synderen - internett. Eller så er det bare meg. To uker og en dag før bursdagen er det perfekte øyeblikket å komme på at gullet trenger en bursdagskjole. Hjemmestrikket. Panikk? Jeg kastet meg over Ravelry. Min redning. (Må jo ha litt igjen for alle timene jeg bruker der inne.) . At last a small pay-off for those hours. Two weeks before ...

Dark Twisted Stitches: februar 2014
http://darktwistedstitches.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Volcanoes and no purling! I kind of want one for myself. I have a volcano loving nephew. What better to make for him than - drum solo - volcano mittens! Also a great excuse to test out the " no purl garter stitch in the round. Bonus trick: A rolled edge makes mittens easier to take on and off. No purl garter stitch in the round. 1 Knitting from the inside. 2 Knit the last stitch, drop the thread on the outside. 3 Turn the work, pick up the thread that is hanging on the inside. Of course I failed to follo...

Dark Twisted Stitches: Ugly yarn
http://darktwistedstitches.blogspot.com/2014/05/ugly-yarn.html
My super ugly yarn that I still just can't make myself get rid of. I thought I'd add some photos, just to prove that I have some really ugly yarn in my stash. Ok, I know that this may be someone else's favourite yarn, but that's not the point. I. Hate it, but it's still in my stash, horrible reminders that crazy sale shopping is not necessary a good thing. Some of this yarn actually contains mohair. Pink I will avoid going political and just state that it is my least favourite colour. How did this happen?

Dark Twisted Stitches: januar 2015
http://darktwistedstitches.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
I have had a huge sewing spree. I bought an overlock machine/serger, (Janome MyLock 644D) and a regular sewing machine (Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.2). I love them both! I realize I'll never have time to follow up on my blog the way I wish, but here are some instagram photos of my latest creations. For kindergarten use for my daughter, this is a Giant Apple from Ottobre 3/2014, size 104/4yo. I left the shoulder caps out this time - it's the third time I've made this dress. I also made a long-sleeve ...A gif...
