Knitting is ok when you have the Flu.... :-(

Been in bed for some days with the flu, and felt sorry for myself....
But, that's not a way to behave, so I had to knit to keep the spirit going.

2 pair of socks are ready for Santa Claus.


I tested a pattern  with foxes from Norsk Ull, but changed it to fit my socks. I only used the fox face, and the nose and eyes I stitched. All the long threads on the back side I fastened extra, so the little boy who is going to get this will not get he's toes in the loops. :-)
The foot and heal is knitted with double yarn, 1 thread 80% wool ( Opal)  and 1 cotton.



And this you can see is the same pattern as I used for the blue socks some weeks ago.
Again I apologize for bad quality on my pictures. I have to use my cell phone for some weeks, until I get hold of my battery charger for my camera. ( Left in my apartment in Oslo, on the last visit.)

Yesterday I felt better, so I did some sewing, ( a Tammy bag, and a small purse) but I need to finish  the handle and some buttons, so this will bee for another day....
Have a nice week.
:-)

  1. Åh, så fina sockor du har gjort!! Skönt att man kan pyssla med någonting när man är sjuk - för det är svårt att inte ha någonting i händerna. Nu hoppas jag att du kryar på dig så att du får vara frisk till jul.
