Flowers on the appletree

Playing with my new camera... this is the appletree right outside where we live. The camera is absolutely fabulous! I love it!

I am doing both knitting and crocheting (finished a pair of blue socks - own design - and a shrug in rosy pink mohair), but I have been too busy to take pictures of anything else than things outside in the sun ;)

Jeg nyder at lege med det nye kamera... det er bare lækkert! Billedet her er blomsterknopperne i æbletræet lige udenfor vores opgang. Om ganske kort tid springer de ud til de skønneste blomster :)

der bliver også strikket og hæklet lidt (et par blå sokker i Brugsens strømpegarn - eget design - og en sjælevarmer i gammelrosa mohair), men jeg har haft alt for travlt med at tage billeder udenfor i solskinnet til at tage billeder af færdige projekter ;)

With Canon, you can

This pretty has been on my mind for a long time now. And with the help of my lovely hubby, it is right now sitting on my sofa ;)

It is the Canon EOS 400D - big brother of the 350D that we borrowed from a friend when we went on our honeymoon last September. It is a digital SLR camera, which is what I have dreamt of for years - actually since the digital cameras started coming out! I have had a SLR for quite some years, but expensive film and developing has made me stop taking pictures as much as I would like to. Then I bought a digital camera (Olympus Camedia C-2020 Z) that made it so much more fun to photograph... but now I have the ultimate "toy" ^__^ this combines the possibilities to take thousands of pictures and still only pay to have the good ones developed, and still gives the opportunities to play around with the motive... I control what is going on, not the camera as has been the case with the Olympus.

Does it show that I am bouncing around from joy, from finally having the perfect camera? *grins* If not, then please imagine me bouncing around like a mad easterbunny with flopping ears and a silly grin on my face ;)

Gæt hvad vi var ude at købe i dag... jeps, den her "lille" skønhed! Med hjælp fra min dejlige mand, har jeg nu kunnet købe mit drømmekamera: Canon EOS 400D - storebroderen til det EOS 350D vi lånte af en nær ven på vores bryllupsrejse i spetember. Det er et digitalt spejlrefleks kamera, og dermed den kombination jeg har drømt om lige siden jeg første gang hørte om digitalkameraer! Jeg har i mange år efterhånden haft et gammelt Ricoh spejlrefleks som gav fantastiske muligheder for spændende billeder (især med de ekstra objektiver jeg har til det), men dyre film og fremkaldelser satte ligesom begrænsninger for udfoldelserne (der skal jo også være penge til garn, ikke sandt??). Det hjalp mit næste kamera på: et Olympus Camedia C-2020 Z digitalkamera på, men det er ikke et spejlrefleks, og dermed var det ikke så meget mig der styrede billederne som kameraet. Men nu har jeg det ultimative "legetøj" ^__^ Glæder mig som en gal til memorycardet kommer med posten, og jeg kan gå igang med at lege ;)

Kan det ses at jeg er totalt lalleglad? Hvis ikke, så forestil dig en tosset påskehare der hopper rundt som en gal med et vanvittigt grin i fjæset ;)

tak

Tak for de søde kommentarer til min sommerkjole! Den blev flittigt brugt de skønne dage med varme og sol, og hænger nu og venter utålmodigt på bedre vejr igen! En sjælevarmer er ved at blive hæklet til, for aftenen blev kølig for skuldrene... det bliver skønt når det bliver rigtig sommer!

NU huskede jeg det!

Der blev spurgt om, hvor meget garn der gik til Sundby, og først skulle jeg lige huske at veje den... og så det allersværeste: at huske at blogge det ;) Nu har jeg husket begge dele, og kan fortælle, at der er gået 276 gram pladegarn til hele trøjen i en str xs/s.
Nu vil jeg så også huske at opdatere lager-tælleren!

A dress for summer

I love dresses. There is no other word for it. Love. L - O - V - E! The strange thing is then, that I hardly have any dresses in my wardrobe! I have a bunch of skirts (that I love just as much!), but only my wedding dress, a pretty blue Chinese dress my sister gave me... and nothing else. Now I do! My mother bought this pattern, thinking my sister and I might like it, and oh yes I (and I guess we?) do!! It is from Burda Young, and can be made strapless, with two straps and with a halterneck strap. I haven't really made any adjustments to the pattern, it just fit perfectly!
The fabric is from Stof2000 and was on sale last year. I bought the rest of the roll and got an extra discount ^^ I think it is cotton, maybe with a bit of linen? It has flowers embroidered all over in the same colour thread as the fabric itself - really pretty and not "too much". Just the way I like it.

Min nye sommerkjole :) Jeg elsker kjoler, men har indtil nu kun haft min brudekjole og en smuk blå kinesisk kjole, som min søster gav mig, i skabet. Nu har jeg også denne her! Min mor har købt mønsteret med tanke på min søster og jeg, og hun har helt klart ramt plet! Kjolen kan laves stropløs, med to stropper eller med halterneck. Jeg har ikke ændret på noget, utroligt nok passede den præcis som den er! Stoffet er fra Stof2000 og var på tilbud sidste år. Jeg købte det sidste i rullen og fik ekstra rabat ;) Det er bomuld - måske med lidt hør i? Kan ikke huske det længere. Der er broderet blomster over hele stoffet med en tynd tråd i samme farve som selve stoffet. Sødt og pyntet uden at være for meget - lige som jeg foretrækker det.

Snowdrop and dolls clothes

I've been a bad blogger. Snowdrop has been finished for almost a week now, and I haven't blogged it! This time, I knit the whole top on 4mm needles, instead of switching to 6mm for the stockinette part. It still isn't as snug fit as I would prefer, but I'm not knitting it a third time! I mean, I would definitely knit it again, but then it would have to be in a different kind of yarn. My nose and eyes just hate mohair *sniff* Other than that - I just love it! Have worn it already and it is so warm and cosy and just lovely!

Snowdrop er færdig, har været det i snart en uge, og jeg har først fået taget billede nu! Slem blogger! Jeg har strikket hele toppen på 4mm rundpind i stedet for at skifte til 6mm i det glatstrikkede. Den er stadig ikke så tætsiddende som jeg gerne ville (den sidder slet ikke tæt!), men jeg strikker den ikke om i det her garn - næse og øjne er ikke gode venner med mohairen. Men gerne i nyt garn ;) Toppen er skøn, varm og lækker at ha' på, og er allerede blevet brugt (med mohair-fnug i maden til følge... ups!). Den kan kun anbefales - men tjek strikkefasthed og dine mål inden du skifter til tykke pinde! Det kan spare meget arbejde :)

I'm not the only one who has gotten new clothes for easter! At my parents I found a book with patterns for doll clothes, and had to make this pyjamas for my baby doll. The fabric is from my old pyjamas that I grew out of pretty fast, so it never got a lot of wear, and is still soft and yummy! Now it will be worn a lot more I think ;)

Det er ikke kun mig, der har fået nyt tøj i påsken: hos mine forældre fandt jeg nogle sy-bøger i mors reol, en af dem med dukketøj! Så nu kan min kære baby-dukke gå anstændigt klædt i seng om aftenen ;) Dukken er syet af min mor for mange år siden, og den får nok snart hår på hovedet. Da jeg var lille kunne jeg ikke beslutte hvilken slags hår hun skulle ha' så hun fik aldrig noget *grin* Men nu skal der gøres noget ved det. Nattøjet er syet af min gamle natskjorte i Lille-Per stil - den var for lille og næsten ikke brugt, så den har fået nyt liv i mindre udgave.

Be careful what you wish for... Snowdrop

No pictures today... I was quick last night. I was happily knitting along on my Snowdrop, thinking "Oh this is such a quick knit, I wish it would last a little longer! It is so lovely to knit, no wonder why they all knit so many of them!". Yeah, well... I will knit at least one more of them, just to get the one. I finished while watching Barnaby (Midsomer Murders), and hurried to put it on to enjoy it. It was HUGE! The top that goes around the shoulders fit perfectly, but the rest of the body? Huge. So I got what I wished for: a lot more knitting time with the lovely Snowdrop ;) I was hoping to wear it for my sisters birthday tomorrow, but that is very unlikely now. Still, it has been the nicest ripping of a project, because... I still look forward to knitting it again!

Ingen billeder idag, jeg var lidt for hurtig i går aftes. Jeg hyggede mig med at strikke på Snowdrop, og tænkte "åh nej, den er alt for hurtig at strikke! den er jo så skøn, den kunne jeg godt strikke på meget længere!". Man skal passe godt på med hvad man ønsker sig... under Barnaby (Midsomer Murders) blev jeg færdig, og skyndte mig at tage den på. Den var alt for stor! Måske jeg skulle ha' gemt den så jeg engang kunne bruge den som vente-top? Der var i hvert fald rigeligt plads til en stor mave *grin* Hen over skuldrene passede den fint, men resten af kroppen var som en stor sæk omkring mig. Så jeg fik da i hvert fald hvad jeg ønskede mig: en masse mere strikketid med den lækre Snowdrop ;) Jeg havde håbet at kunne bruge den til min søsters fødselsdag i morgen, men det skulle ikke være. Alligevel har det ikke været slemt at skulle pille den op, for jeg glæder mig stadig til at strikke den igen!

Sundby

Last winter I bought a lot of "pladegarn" (I have no idea what it is called in English, but you can see some here) to knit a sweater of. Then it got incredibly warm, and I forgot all about warm sweaters.
Then winter came, it got cold, and finally, as spring was showing the first signs, I remembered about the yarn and the sweater!
I had swatched several times not really finding out what I wanted to do, but noticed the pattern for Sundby and made a swatch in the pattern, and it was just perfect!

Pattern: Sundby by Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton
Yarn: cheap "pladegarn" from Garnlageret
Needles: 4,5 mm
Adjustments: The yarn is very fragile, so I couldn't use it to sew the
pieces together with, but I got a tip to crochet instead, and that worked
out
really well! I didn't make the neck as long as it should be (4cm instead
of 5) -
don't know if that was good or bad... should block the neck too I
think, the
edges are falling in a bit. But that is just the final tweaking
;)

Sidste vinter købte jeg en masse pladegarn i Garnlageret i Århus til at strikke en varm trøje af. Så blev det forår og alt for varmt, og jeg glemte alt om garnet.
Så blev det koldt, og da foråret begyndt at titte frem, huskede jeg garnet og den varme trøje. Har strikket en masse strikekprøver, men faldt pludselig over Sundby fra en Noro-bog, og strikkefastheden passede perfekt! Den er superhurtig at strikke og er blevet rigtig lækker :) Jeg rendte ind i et problem da jeg skulle sy den sammen, for pladegarn er jo alt for skrøbeligt at sy me... heldigvis var der hjælp at hente i webstrik, hvor jeg blev rådet til at hækle den sammen, og det var da den nemmeste montering af en trøje jeg nogenside har hørt om! Kan man mon ikke bare fortsætte på den måde med andre projekter? *host*
Trøjen er strikket efter mindste størrelse, og passer bare perfekt! Er glad for, at den ikke stumper i livet men går ned over buksekanten... og ærmerne er lige præcis så lange som de skulle være! Tror vist jeg lige skal tjekke om der er garn nok til en mere...

Knut the little icebear

Who can resist this cute little icebear from the zoo in Berlin?

Hvem kan modstå sådan en lille isbjørn? Han bor i zoo i Berlin :)

Blogroll

I've been trying to fix this for some time, but never really got it to work... now I finally cracked it, and the result is at the bottom of the sidebar! All the blogs I follow, that will work with Bloglines are in a blogroll. I usually just see the ones that have been updated, so it is impressive to see them all at once! Sadly I found several that haven't been updated in a long time - I just hope the bloggers are okay and just too busy with life to blog about it. *crosses fingers*

Jeg har længe forsøgt at få det til at virke, men først i dag fik jeg knækket nøden. Resultatet kan ses nederst i sidebaren: en blogroll med alle de blogs jeg følger via Bloglines! Jeg ser jo til daglig kun de, som er opdateret, så det er imponerende at se dem alle på en gang! Desværre fandt jeg flere, som ikke er blevet opdateret rigtig længe - jeg krydser fingre for, at bloggerne har det godt, og bare har for travlt med livet til at blogge om det.

Baby-bib - Hagesmæk

After receiving the Japanese sewing books, I just had to try something out... I decided on this little baby-bib (is that the right word?). An easy little project, that didn't make me spend too much time figuring out which parts of the pattern that belonged to what ;) I used yet another leftover from my striped skirt and the Tiny Happy Bag, and some thrifted cotton for backing.

The logo is one I have made myself, hoping I can use it for my future projects and perhaps a shop. (This is my wild future dream, I really hope I will be able to work with my crafts, since it is what makes me happy and not so stressed out). It is hand embroidered on a peice of the backing-cotton with blue embroidery floss.

Efter at have fået de japanske sybøger, var jeg nødt til at sy noget fra en af dem! Valget faldt på denne lille hagesmæk, der er jo kun en mønsterdel at holde styr på, og tålmodigheden var ikke lige til at gennemskue en masse japanske anvisninger... resultat nu og her, tak! ;) Stoffet er endnu en gang rester fra min stribede nederdel og på bagsiden hvid bomuld.

Mærket er et jeg selv har designet, med håb om engang selv at designe og at bruge det til en eventuel fremtidig butik. Jeg ved godt, at det er en vild drøm, men jeg håber engang at kunne arbejde med de kreative ting, for det er jo det der gør mig glad, og ikke stresser mig sådan. Mærket er håndbroderet på en stykke af den hvide bomuld med mørkeblå brodere garn.

First day of spring

Today was the first real day of spring: the sun was shining from a clear blue sky, the birds were singing and the wind wasn't icy cold. I didn't wear a hat or mittens when I was out shopping and taking photos! I didn't see many signs of spring plant-wise, but I have a few proofs that warmer times are on their way ;)

Books and flowers

More than a month ago I ordered a book from amazon.com. I waited and waited, and it has finally arrived! Luckily it was worth the wait ;) A few days ago I ordered two books from amazon.co.jp and I prepared myself to wait for at least a month for them. Today the postman rang the doorbell, and I honestly wondered why he would do that?? Well, he had a big brown box for me! From Japan!! How mad is that?? So I'm all giddy today, jumping around and I just don't know what to do about myself.

• Sew what! Skirts is a nice little handy book about sewing skirts. A girl can never get too many skirts! Am I right? And this book has won my heart by being a "don't buy patterns that you have to change to make them fit you, but write down your own measures, and make your own pattern"-book. I'm not as tall as the average woman, which means the patterns made for average women tend to be a bit... long for me. So learning how to make my own patterns that fit me perfectly is just what I've dreamed of! The instructions are very clear, and I would think, very easy to follow (I haven't tried any of them yet, just got the book). There are several ideas that I HAVE to try!
• Simple chic I first saw on crafting japanese, and I'm absolutely in love with those pretty dresses! I don't understand any Japanese at all, but the pictures seem as easy to follow as I have heard they are from others, so I'm not giving up! Must have pretty dress!
• This one I have no idea what is called. I also found this on crafting japanese, and had to get it for the lovely baby/childrens clothes is has. The little smocks and dresses, pants and a cute cap... I was totally sold! Reminded me of the cute clothes Tiny Happy makes!

Spring is hopefully getting much closer now - I long for sun, warm weather and flowers everywhere! There have been brightening up my apartments for several days now, they are getting tired. But I wanted to keep them a little longer, so they get to lighten up the blog as well ;)

Have a nice weekend when that time comes! I'm going to visit a crafty friend, will be so much fun!

Corners

On many blogs I see pictures of different corners of the bloggers' home - studios, kitchens, livingrooms, that special comfy chair... all those places. I felt like sharing a little "corner" of my apartment with you. Actually it is a corner of one of my bookshelves! The knitted teddybear is one I made about 3 years ago, when I was still a very new knitter :) The pattern is the Red Barnet Bamse (sorry, only in Danish) by Vivian Høxbro.

The needle- and thread-holder is one I got from a good friends late grandmother. I didn't know her very well (only met her once), but I have the impression, that she was a very active woman, who knew several languages, was very crafty and she must have been very interesting to have known better! I was so lucky to get all her knitting needles and sewing machine, and then this little fine one. I covered the top with some leftover cotton to make it even cuter.

The teddybear is wearing a red scarf knit by me, and a woolen shawl my niece Elizabeth has knit for him! The very first thing she ever knit :) I'm very proud to have it here, and I am sure teddy is too!

Maiden's Dream

This is actually old news, and still new. A long time ago I bought 400g light brown possum yarn with the plan of knitting a perfect sweater/cardigan for myself. I swatched and swatched, made drawings and notes, and then started knitting a snug fit cardigan (I really don't like huge sweaters, I'm too short for that, I just look like a huge ball of yarn ;)). I made it a top-down-raglan (my first - or second? was knitting Bette at the same time) and finished it after a long time. Then it has been making a lovely bottom of my knittingbasket, since I had no idea how to make the closure. Thought about hasps (is that a word?) or little buttons with tiny crocheted straps or just leaving it open with a knitted or sewn belt around the waist. I started knitting a belt in seed/moss stitch but the neckline was too wide to actually stay in the intended place on my shoulder (which honestly looked really stupid!). So it stayed for even longer in the basket. Yesterday I found it, while looking for something else, picked it up and wondered why I had left it, so close to finished. Tried it on and remembered. Thought a lot about how to keep it on my shoulders and eventually figured out the only way I was going to use it, was to sew it up as a sweater instead of a cardi. So... that's what I did! I could have saved all those purl rows, and just knit the whole thing in the round. But then I wouldn't know I have too small shoulders for that wide a neckline *giggles*

Pattern: Maiden's Dream (my own)
Yarn: 150g Possum from Sommerfuglen
Needles: 2,5mm
What I would do different next time: make the sleeves
even tighter so they
don't look so pouchy! Luckily I have enough yarn for
one more, then I'll make it
with long sleeves... and knit in the round from
the start!

Denne her er både gammel og ny. Det er længe siden jeg strikkede den færdig, den maglede bare lige de sidste "finishing touches" før den var helt klar. Jeg købte possumgarnet hos Sommerfuglen for længe siden, med en plan om at strikke den perfekte bluse til mig selv. Så jeg lavede strikkeprøver og tegnede og regnede en masse, og gik så igang med at strikke en tætsiddende cardigan. Store tykke løse trøjer får mig til at ligne et lille garnnøgle, så stramt er klart min foretrukne stil ;) Jeg blev også færdig med den, men manglede den perfekte lukning. Overvejede hægter eller små knapper med hæklde trenser og til sidst et strikket eller syet bælte i taljen, men det største problem var at holde den på mine smalle skuldre - halsåbningen var alt for bred! Så indtil i går lå den og varmede de andre ufærdige projekter i min strikkekurv. Jeg fandt den da jeg ledte efter noget andet, og kunne egentlig ikke huske hvorfor den var endt der... indtil jeg prøvede den på, og den drattede af mine skuldre! Vandrede rundt om den, indtil jeg måtte indse, at den eneste måde den ville blive brugbar på, var at sy den sammen foran, så det blev en bluse i stedet for en cardigan. Så det gjorde jeg! Færdig er den, og jeg har brugt den hele dagen :) Absolut skøn at have på, og jeg planlægger allerede den næste - der er nemlig 250g garn tilbage (de anbefalede 400g til en str small, og den her tog kun 150g...).

Snow...

Finally the snow came... and not just a little bit this time, no, we got a lot. This is close to where I live, and it is usually a road... now the cars can hardly drive through without sliding off the road!

My study group was cancelled, since the other in the group is stuck in a huge snowdrift! I had to go shopping though, and took a few pics on the way. Some people get cranky about snow, since it is troublesome, but I just get so happy when we get snow! When others take snowy days as a good excuse to sit indoors and not go out again 'till spring comes, I jump into my huge boots, hats, socks (yup in plural - wearing 3 pairs right now...), mittens and run out with all the children! Not playing like them (I don't have my sledge here *sniff*) , but just enjoying the weather :) And THEN I have a good excuse to go inside when I am so cold I can't feel myself and don't know if I lost a leg or something on the way, and make a huge cup of tea and eat some homebaked bread (I made some nice bread yesterday - forgot the salt in the dough, so I sprinkled flaky salt and rosemary on two of the breads, and salt and nigella seeds on the two others. They ended up really nice!

Århus fik sne... meget sne! Læsegruppen er aflyst, for ham jeg er i gruppe med sidder fast i en snedrive... Jeg var en tur i netto og benyttede lejligheden til at tage lidt billeder. På billedet ovenfor plejer der at være en vej, nu har bilerne problemer med overhovedet at køre der, uden at skride ud. Nogle bliver mugne når der kommer så meget sne, fordi det er for besværligt - jeg bliver bare totalt overstadig og hopper ud i sneen ligesom alle børnene *grin* Har desværre ikke min kælk her *snøft* Men man kan jo altid nyde det dejlige vejr, og så smutte ind og drikke et kæmpe krus varm the, når man er blevet så kold, at man ikke helt kan føle sig selv længere ;) Det hjemmebagte brød fra i går blev ganske vellykket selvom jeg glemte at komme salt i... så det fik olivelolie, flagesalt og rosmarin og nigellafrø på toppen i stedet. To af hver slags blev det til :)

Amimono: Snowdrop

I couldn't resist any longer. I've been tempted for a very long time, and when Snowdrop showed up on several Danish blogs again, I had to find out where to buy the pattern! With a bit of help from Strikkeforsker in my comments, I found Isager's store where I live, and went there today... crazy luxury with my not so big income, but I had some money from Christmas, that I though needed something lovely to be spent on ;) So now I have the kit for a Snowdrop in black. I could so use a little black top like that, I just can't wait to get started! But first I have to finish the baby-socks that are waiting, and the scarf for hubby.

Nu kunne jeg ikke modstå fristelsen længere. Den har fristet meget længe, og da den dukkede op på flere danske blogs igen, måtte jeg bare finde ud af, hvor jeg kunne købe den! Det er selvfølgelig den over alt elskede Snowdrop. Med hjælp til at finde frem til forhandlerlisten af Strikkeforsker via kommentarerne, fandt jeg Isager's butik, og smuttede derned i dag. Ren luksus på min SU, men jeg havde lidt penge fra jul, der vist skulle bruges på noget rigtig lækkert ;) Så nu står er kit med Snowdrop i sort i min stue, det er lige sådan en top jeg har brug for, og uhhh hvor den lokker! Kan slet ikke vente til jeg kan begynde på den, men der er vist et par babysokker og et halstørklæde til den stakkels Anders, som skal ordnes først.

Bette

Last night I finally finished this little baby sweater "Bette". Okay, I guess it isn't exactly "little", turned out bigger than I thought when I casted on for it, but I don't mind. It isn't knit for anybody in particular, so it will just wait for the right baby to come around :) The design is from DesignClub.DK (and no, they don't have a webpage - how weird is that, with a name like that? Love the designs though!). I found the pattern in a magazine, and when I saw the name, I had to knit it - when I couldn't speak properly yet, I shortened my own name to Bette ^^

Pattern: Bette from Designclub.DK
Yarn: Babygarn Superwash merinoull (I got this as gift in secret nordic
friend a long time ago)
Needles: 2,5mm bamboo circular and metal dpn's
Stash reduction: 100g

I går aftes blev jeg endelig færdig med Bette! Det er så længe siden, at jeg begyndte på den, at jeg ikke kan huske om det var sidste år eller forrige... det der har trukket det i langdrag, har helt klart været min rundpind som var lige lovlig lang til sådan en bette trøje. Men gad jeg gå ud og købe en kortere? Næh, det gik jo okay, bare lidt langsomt *grin* Men skal jeg strikke den igen, ofrer jeg absolut en kortere pind på den! Designet er så lækkert, det er klart at den er blevet sådan et hit i blogland! Der er vel snart ingen, som ikke på et tidspunkt har haft fat i den? :) Da jeg så navnet på opskriften første gang, vidste jeg, at jeg var nødt til at strikke den - da jeg var lille og ikke helt kunne tale rigtigt endnu, forkortede jeg mit eget navn til det noget nemmere Bette ^^

BlogTjek07

Skal man være "tjekket" må man vel tjekkes *grin* BlogTjek07 lyder da som en sjov lille undersøgelse, så jeg vil straks sende jer til "mit" spørgeskema.

Thrifting finds

A quick trip to the thrift store can bring many funny finds! This time I found these two 70's (?) pattern books from Marks. One is with doll clothes (they are just fabulous! a bathrobe that could just as well be a fancy long coat, dresses and "Chanel" skirts and jackets and a lot more), the other is with all kinds of things.

En tur i genbrugsbutikken kan bringe mange sjove ting! Sidst fandt jeg disse to opskriftshæfter fra Marks, jeg tror de er fra 70'erne? Det ene er med dukketøj, alt fra en baderobe(!) der lige så godt kunne være en smart frakke, "Chanel" sæt med jakke og nederdel og meget andet. Det andet hæfte er en god blanding af alt muligt sjovt, "anderledes" og knap så kønt ;)
