Jo det er da sukkertrøjen! Og jeg er kommet så fantastisk langt, at jeg har slået de 201 masker op... jeg ser frem til mange (!!) lange aftner med det her strikketøj, men skal vist også lave andre små projekter... har lige hørt fra min svigerinde, at hendes døtre har en "Elisabeth-fanklub", for hvor er det fascinerende, at tante Elisabeth bare kan sætte sig til at strikke, og så har hun lavet nogle strømper eller vanter eller tøj til bamsen!! Der sneg sig vist også "strømper" ind på den ældstes (snart 8 år) ønskeseddel... men helst i form af sådan nogle hjemmestrikkede nogen som tante Elisabeth laver... *G* Kan man blive andet end rørt?! Så skal hun da også ha' et par ;)
This is the very first beginning on the "sukkertrøje" (Sugar cardigan). Finally I've found what I think will be the right size... and decoded the strange pattern! The pattern only came in medium and large, I don't understand why small should be left out, but now I'm making it :) I'll be having many long nights with this project... 201 sts (at the beginning!) on 2,5mm needles! If I don't learn anything else from knitting this, I will learn patience (I hope - otherwise you'll never see it finished). But at the same time I will have to make other small projects... like socks for my nieces! I've just heard that they have a small "Aunt Elisabeth fan club", they are so impressed, that I just sit down and knit something!! Suddenly there are finger puppets, socks, mittens... ;) And since my eldest niece, who will be 8 years on the 4th of November, put "socks... preferably knit by aunt Elisabeth" on her wish list, I think I'll have to make her some... isn't that just the cutest?! My heart is just melting!! :)
