Habitat

Hello to my abundant readers ;)

I hope you are all having nice Saturdays. Mine is decent enough; so far today I've been through an incredibly tiring workout and a large mug of coffee. I am soon going to make a gigantic omelette and in the meantime I am playing Wordfeud with my mother and listening to Belle and Sebastian. Nice relaxing Saturday, and in the evening I am going to a friend's birthday party, so it looks like I may have to bake some brownies.

But of course, the reason I'm writing, is that I finished yet another project (I'm on fire, it seems). A few weeks ago I caved in and bought two skeins of madelinetosh dk weight, after a very long time of not buying internet yarn! I quickly decided that one of the skeins must turn into the Habitat hat. I knew that this yarn would translate excellently into cables, and the colour was so pretty I needed to wear it on my head (if that makes sense)..I have needed a green hat for a long time. I'm a green junkie! It's just the nicest colour in the wooooooorld... or at least the nicest colour that goes with my colouring.

So, I made this hat in record speed. It was just so fun to knit! And today, since it is Saturday, I was able to have a photoshoot with myself (I'm not a fun model to shoot, though) outside. Just armlength pictures, and I stupidly hoped for some decent portraits, but sadly I suffer from Permanent Bitchface, so no such luck. ;) Here are the pictures, anyway.

    1. Tusen takk! :D Slenger man det i vaskebøtta etter man er ferdig blir det som regel jevnt og fint. :-)

  2. Fine work as always. "Permanent Bitchface" did make me laugh a little but does suit the pose you adopt for the majority of your self portraits.
