Joy, disappointment and frustration


The lovely Noro yarn I have been waiting for the last month, arrived while I was in Stavanger. Yesterday I was tempted to start with it again, taking a break from my Myiake, and you know what? I couldnt't figure out where in the pattern I was. I'm so disappointed. Why couldn't I just mark the place.

Skuffelsen er stor, hva gjør jeg nå? Teller og beregner eller rekker opp? Foreløpig ser det ut som en uoverkommelig oppgave å finne ut av. Hvorfor lærer jeg aldri, - bare et bittelite merke i mønsteret så hadde jeg visst hvor jeg var!

Waiting activities







A new Thermis while I'm waiting for the yarn for my Clapotis. I've even found some Noro yarn from Acorn Street Shop, 2818 NE.55th Street Seattle, WA. I bought this single skein and it's only 100 metres. When I startede knitting, I relized that I didn't like the way the colours developed though. The plan was to knit this beautiful west, Elisabeth from the magazin: Noro joy.

Jaja, sånn kan det gå. Æ ska lage en sjølkomponert hals av garnnøstet. Vesten SKAL æ strikke, men no har æ skjønt at æ må bestille rett garn, Noro, Matsuri, shade 5.

Clapotis Progress




I'm running out of yarn, - and you know what, you can't buy this yarn in Norway! With the help of Ravelry I found this place, and I oredered their only skein in the correct colour. Actually you can buy Noro in Norway, through Pinnsvin design, but they didn't have Silk Garden Sock Yarn.

The pics are with and without a flash to get the right colours.


Se, no tar sjalet form, den rektangulære formen e synlig, kanskje det kalles parallellogram?

"Clapotis"; the name of a shawl







It's getting more easy to grasp the outcome of this. Look at the colours. Noro, Silk Garden Sock Yarn, I like the way the colours "grow" into my project. Now I hope I have enough, I just bought one skein in Seattle last summer.
I've tried with and without a flash hoping to get the correct colours, not easy...
Now is bedtime, my body is torn and twisted after the work out this evening.

WIP problems....




I can't figure out this pattern, Clapotis is causing me a lot of trouble. Now I've turned to Ravelry for some help.
Edited at five o'clock; all my problems are gone thanks to this lady on Ravelry. I've frogged it all and started all over again.
