This is my virtual space for fiber. Besides me in my house, there are 2 fishes, 1 cat, 4 kids, 1 man and limited space for fiber. So the virtual one comes in handy.

The big, the small and the skirt

How about straightening out some of my projects and get some pictures...

My big one - Flicca - knits up with 2 strands of Design club DK DUO and 1 strand of Jaggerspun zephyr and I really like the air, drape and texture of the fabric they make up together:

The tension is a bit tighter than stated in the pattern so I am knitting a larger size than I normally would - hoping it somehow will fit. If not I can always use another blanket...

I am making the body in one piece and plan on a raglan yoke instead of set-in sleeves. Which really makes this big cardigan very much similar to the much smaller and lighter Ofelia:

Ofelia's little eyelet detail:

And...

have to admit..

I also started a little skirt - for younger girl...

Love your Flicca - I want to knit that too!! Ofelia is the world's slowest knit, but so worth it in the end. Amazing colour!!

Skønt strik! Jeg drømmer også om Ofelia - men den tager jo nærmest en evighed at strikke...
