Finally a FO again

The Peter Pan sweater is done. Finally.

The front:


And the back:


My son wonders why I did not make the neckline the same on both sides, so he could choose what goes up front.

Easter egg paint

Look what my son and I did last weekend.
We experimented with white sock yarn and easter egg paint.
We started with the lighter colors and ended with the blue and purple.
The yarn looked very dark at some spots, but when we took it out of the container we saw that the dark colors never reached the lower layers of yarn. So the white spots are not intended to be there.



But it looks quite nice reskeined. My son wants a pair of socks from it anyway.

Update on my norwegian knitting

We had 3 lessons and I started another project.
This is my course thing:


We just learned to weave and next will be the cutting. Oh my..

And I started a Norge 2000 from Dale of Norway for my son.
The yarn is merino and it knits so much nicer. The body is almost done.
