Apart from this, my daughter and I went to a 'Juletrefest', a christmas party, yesterday. She wanted to wear her Norwegian folk dress, and I think she lookes so cute in it. The movie below shows her dancing around the christmas three...even though she's more interested in my camera. What is momy filming right now..hmmm..lol

Shabby chic handbag
I'll also make some smaller ones to give away to her friends birthdays. I think they will ook cute and personal if I add their names to them. On of my new years resolutions is to not buy any gifts this year. I find my daughters room filled with plastic toys, they break easily and they are no fun! Sooo..a small handbag and crochet amigurumi will do the trick instead, at least for her girlfriends :)

Happy New Year
Happy new year!!!! I have had a great Christmas Holiday and New Years Celebration!!! We went to the mountains for a couple of days, and did some skiing. My daughter even got to try out some slalom. It was so much fun!!!
And here she is skiing...it was so much fun watching her.
New Years Eve...nothing is like a big bundle of fireworks...even though it was a bit scary for some..lol
I even got around to doing some knitting. A stitching bitch hat for men. I really liked the way it turned out. And last, but not least...the felted Hello Kitty mittens, which are the second pattern in the Hello Kitty Mystery kal.

Busy bee

I also made felted mittens for hmmm and hmmm. The heart ones was my favourite, its fun to just try different stuff while you go. The mittens are my design :)

Last night (stayed up faaaar to late) I sew two purses for my knitting and crochet projects. I always have at least 10 projects to work on at a time, and I hate to store and bringing them around in plastic bags. I look like a real bag lady...I tell you! But now I will sew lots and lots of these purses and put away each project neatly in its own bag :)

Hello Kitty Winter Mama is done!!!!
Now I have to write down everything nicely...which usually is a nightmare. This time around I tried to write down everything on my computer as I went along, but like any new year resolution...it went straight down the drain!

Santa Lucia
My daughter had a Santa Lucia celebration at her kindergarden yesterday. It's her that 'dances' in the middle. The kids had baked ginger cookies and Lussekatter (Lucia buns), and the parents got glue wine to go with the cookies. It was really cold outside, but it was worth beeing a bit cold and just watch the kids when they came out to sing for us :)

SnB Knitting cafe
I started on a new crochet 'japanese' hat instead, which is a really easy and quick project to make. I finished it off when I got home...I just couldn't go to sleep before the rose was done! It's for my SIL, and I hope she'll like it :)

Advent calendar
Well...it looks like someone was happy this morning. She's so cute...she believed that Santa had delivered it during the night when she was asleep. Her mother has been going on and on about it...so she still believes in Santa :)
The santa is really big, more than 1 meter tall!!! I've sewn the Santa along with the clothes, and knitted the hat, scarf and socks.

Hello Kitty Mystery Kal
There will be another Hello Kitty kal shortly...a mystery one!!! I will host it, and I've made a blog for it here.
I had a 3 h roadtrip today....in snowy weather....so obviously I had some time to think of something to make for the knitalong. The items will be a secret until Christmas eve...but here comes the 'themes' so far. At least they will give you some hints on what types of designs that are coming :)
Knit: Hello Kitty Winter Cuteness - for kids
Crochet: Hello Kitty Winter Mama - for girls (like us that dears to wear anything Hello Kitty'ish)
Ideas are still most welcome :)
Veronica has volunteered to change the layout of the kal blog...so I'm really looking forward to see what she comes up with :)
This kal will be exclusively to members of the Hello Kitty Ravelry group.
Start: 24'th of december 2007
Sign up ends: 23'rd of November 2007
I hope you will join us :)

Hello Kitty Knit/crochet along???
I have finally gotten access to Ravelry!!!! And guess what...there was a Hello Kitty group there that I just had to join...lol
I've hosted two HK kals earlier, a winter and a summer kal, and I think that its about time I have another one. I posted this on the group site over at Ravelry, so I'm thinking a kal exclusively for us in this group could be fun.
I have loads of ideas, could be knitting or crochet, for a child or hmmm...grown up. Could be handbag, accessories?!? It could even be like one of those mysterious kals..where you dont even know what the finished item is. It could be a felted item now that winter is here...at least for us Vikings!
I would love to get some inputs and ideas for items to make...anything...well almost...is doable!!!
Here are some oooold HK stuff that I've made.

Oslofia's Patterns Shop
Yup...I've finally managed to get online with some of my patterns. Check it out over at Oslofias's Patterns.
I've been working on slippers lately, so now I have to get it all down in writing. I've designed some crochet Mary Jane's, or ballet slippers as my daughter calls them. She's been dancing all around the house wearing hers, and here you can see her dancing outside when I tried to take some nice pictures of the slippers :)

Halloween and fabric grocery bag
Wow...what a combination showing of both my Halloween pics and then my newest project..the fabric grocery bag!!! Anyways, my daughter and I went to two Halloween parties last Saturday. What a day we had! My baby was an English princess, or Swedish. She couldn't make up her mind. She sat the and did the pearls on her forhead the evening before. She was so cute with the make-up an all.
The kids party was a blast. The kids run around and had such a great time. They got spiders (meatballs with legs) with green mashed potatoes for lunch, some nice blood (ketchup) to go with the spiders, and green poison lemonade. I had a little go at the lunch as well...and it was great :)
Well..some couple of hours later...much later, we were dancing on the sofa, the chairs...just about everywhere where we were not supposed to dance. It was a great party, I had so much fun :)
