Fighting UFOs

Jeg har bestemt meg for å ta et ordentlig innhugg i UFO-kurven min. Da Twist collective kom ut med Wisteria, måtte jeg bare strikke den. Startet på SnB, men det var overhodet ikke noe smart. Altfor mange fletter å holde styr på med all den skravlingen. Den ble liggende i kurven en god stund, men nå har jeg endelig klart å gjøre den ferdig. En veldig morsom genser å strikke, dessuten gikk det fort med pinne nr. 5. Jeg har brukt Yowsa - Whatta Skein fra Miss Babs. Deilig garn å strikke med og veldig mykt.

I have decided to fight my UFOs. When Twist Collective gave out the pattern Wisteria, I just had to knit it. Ufortunately I started on the sweater on SnB, which wasn' t the greatest idea I've had. Too many cables to keep track of and too much talking. The whole project ended up in my UFO-bag where it spent months. I started to knit it one and a half week ago, and discovered it really was a fun project to knit. On needles number 5 mm it was a fast knit as well. I used Yowsa - Whatta Skein from Miss Babs. Lovely yarn and very soft. Love the yarn and love the sweater.

Disse vottene har ligget veldig lenge i UFO-kurven, eller den ene votten har ligget der lenge. Tenk, jeg startet ikke på vott nummer to og oppdaget at det var nok en venstre, nei, her har jeg faktisk klart å strikke en venstre og en høyre med en gang. Veldig stolt av det! Vottene er str.7-9 år, strikket i Finull fra Rauma jeg fikk i Hemmelig venn-gave en gang for lenge, lenge siden. Må være lenge også, siden tulla erklærte at de er fine, men hun kunne godt tenke seg dem i hvitt og turkis. Ja, ja, jeg finner vel noen andre eiere til disse vottene.

These mittens have been in my UFO-bag a long time, or more correctly, one of the mittens has been in there a long time. I didn't start mitten number two and stop because it was another left one. Oh, no, on this pair I have actually managed to knit one left and one right mitten at once. I'm very proud of that achievement and feel like screaming it out to everyone, kind of what I just did. The mittens are size 7-9 years old and knitted in Finull from Rauma, 100% wool, a yarn I got in a Secret pal at Hobbyboden a very long time ago. And I found out it had to be a long time ago since my daughter didn't want the pink mittens anymore. She wanted a pair in white and turquoise. Well, hopefully I find another owner for this pair.
