Gadget man's hat


I know a guy who would want to obtain all the newest gadgets produced by Apple computers as soon as they leave the design table.

He must have an apple hat. Low tech, high tech rolled into one. A gift for his birthday.


PS I know the apple logo is mirrored in the picture - in real life it's not (anybody know how to mirror picture 'back'???)


Yarn: Løve Cosy; pattern: basic head hugger - k2, p2, with a pannel of 14 x 20 in stockinette for the logo. Logo stitched on with duplicate stitch - chart from the tech guy socks as published in Magknits.

second and third yarns - tweede en derde garen - andet og tredje garn

my second yarn turned into a hat
mijn tweede garen werd een muts
mit andet garn blev til en hat





the third yarn is made of blue, turquoise and white fleece, combed together
het derde garen is van blauwe, turquoise and witte wol, door elkaar gekamd
det tredje garn er lavet af blå, turkis og hvid uld, kammet sammen




I'm so amazed at how much fun it is to spin
Ik verbaas me er nog steeds over hoe leuk het is om te spinnen
Jeg er stadig forbavset over hvor sjovt det faktisk er at spinde

scarf and necklace





One big, one small thing for around your neck. Compare the scarf with the thing I tried first here, don't you think this is much better?

Necklace: thin white crochet yarn with sewing thread to make it greener. No pattern
Scarf: Noro Kureyon, pattern here
This is my project for March of the 12 projects in 2007. 200 gr. off the stash.

My januari project - mit januar projekt



First of all: Anybody who can tell me how to get blogger NOT to rotate my picture, tell me! Until then: rotate your heads (to the left).


A hat in slipstitch. The stitch was found in the library copy of Barbara Walkers second treasury of knitting stitches that I reluctantly have returned. But it has been used by a lot of people on a dishcloth as suggested by Mason-Dixon knitting.
In order to shape the top, the amount of stitches between the slipped stitches (5 to start with) were gradually reduced (until none were left).

Yarn is from the same unfinished sweater as the slipstitch hat I produced earlier, see the entry
here
knitted on two circular, 4 mm needles.

This project is my entry for the 12 projects in 2007 group. It also goes into my yarndiet group, but I have to weigh it and I have no digital scales!

En hat i 'slipstitch' (hvad hedder den i grunden på dansk???). Jeg har fundet den i Barbara Walkers second treasury of knitting stitches, som jeg desværre skulle aflevere til biblioteket igen. Man kan også se den mange steder på nettet, for 'Mason-Dixon' knitting foreslår den på en grydelap.
For at forme toppen reducerede jeg maskerne mellem de 'slippede' (damn, hvad hedder det nu?) masker over flere omgange (fra 5 til 0). Garnet er det samme som jeg brugte til en tidligere hat, se den her

Strikket på to rundstrikkepinde, 4mm.

Denne hat er mit bidrag til gruppen '12 projekter i 2007'. Det er også en del af brugditgarnlager gruppen, men jeg skal jo veje den og har ikke en vægt som er digital!


Een 'slipstitch' muts (ik weet niet hoe dat heet in het nederlands - afgehaalde steek-steek? (en trouwens ook niet in het deens). Ik heb de steek gevonden in Barbara Walkers second treasury of knitting stitches die ik helaas weer moest inleveren bij de bibliotheek. Je kunt die steek ook elders zien, want Mason-dixon knitting heeft 'm op een pannelap. Om de top te vormen heb ik langzaamaan de steken tussen de afgehaalde steken gereduceerd van 5 tot 0. Het garen is hetzelfde als voor die eerdere muts, die je hier kunt zien.

Gebreid met twee 4 mm rondbreinaalden.

Deze muts is de eerste van mijn 1 projekt per maand group (en Lieke: ik maak geen grote dingen zoals truien, daardoor denk ik dat het gaat lukken). Het is ook een deel van mijn garendieetgroep, maar ik moet hem nog wegen en heb geen digitale weegschaal.

Yarndiet and 12 projects from your stash

I am on a yarn diet. It is a Danish group called brug dit garnlager (use your stash. I signed up for 3 months. Simultaneously I signed up for a group compatible with this: a 1 project-per-month from you stash group. Find the pictures for this group on flickr: here
