Roses on a fence outside a church in Oslo, Norway - in memory of the victims of July 22th 2011. Hard to blog now, after what has happened in my city & country. But I will try to be back soon...

Knitting women

A picture from the old days: knitting was done in between other chores...like here: while walking :)

Found this old picture of a little girl knitting!
I don't know who made it... :)

I finally found the book "Norwegian Knitting Designs" !

It's a classic I have been looking for a long time... :)

It's a cute,old little book (63 pages) with many traditional Norwegian patterns, collected by Annichen Sibbern going from farm to farm in Norway before the war.

I got the Norwegian version, shipped from the US. Funny! 

I found it here: http://www.abebooks.com/

Waiting for summer - it's still kind of cold up here, I found this supercute little bird house, and a lovely shabby chic vintage flower mug!
And I am still knitting on the Marius sweater...
