Berlin here I come

by Heidi on 24/05/2013

knitknit collageJa jeg er på vei til Berlin! Jeg skal på langhelg sammen med mange andre glade bloggere på konferansen The Hive (følg med på instagram @woolrocks).
Men først er flytur (men strikkepinnene blir i kufferten etter mye diskusjon), så satser jeg på at jeg når en garnbutikken innen jeg skal på workshop i den lille garnbutikken Knitknit. Gleder meg! Skriver hvordan det hele har gått med mange bilder etter helga. Ha en super helg.

Yeah I’m off to Berlin and The Hive for the weekend. So it’ll be very blog and crafty. Can’t wait. First on the list workshop at the small yarn shop Knitknit. Stay tuned on instagram for updates and I’m posting pictures here when I’m back. Have a nice weekend!

Knitted wedding

by Heidi on 23/05/2013

Knitted wedding gown by Fashion Martina

When I got married four years ago I didn’t wear any knit, but if I was suppose to get married now I might splash totally out on knitted wedding things.

Perhaps with a lacy wedding bolero like Matrimonio bolero by hand made by fasOLA

Or a lacy shawl like this one ‘Snow peacock by Tonks‘

I just love the fact that there is so much cool stuff for knitters. These are things I’ve found in Etsy, by the way a haven for knitters with accessories, yarn and more.
Links are on the pictures.

Knitting a short row shaped scarf
