More knitting

I'm still knitting a lot. Now I'm working on a vest for my friend Heiða and another friend of mine has asked for one. Then I might make one for myself! It's made of wool and looks pretty cool I think. I may finish it today - or I may not. I've also made a jumper for Bob, I think it's ready now, I laid it to dry yesterday morning and I think it should be dry now. I'm really enjoying this :)

Laundry room

We're working on the laundry room now, right now it's a horrible mess, like this, but hopefully we can put up the top last cabinet today. Then we can put the stuff that was in there back in and it will then look a bit better. Then we are going to move the washing machine up against the freezer, put the tumble drier on top of it and then make a cabinet next to that and get a new work surface. So far we haven't bought any wood or anything, just used what we had, until yesterday, we got some chip board to make that cabinet and we will need new work surface. We'll probably get that from IKEA, we'll sort that out today.

Toothless tinker

Sólveig Lilja has lost two of her baby teeth already, the first one a few weeks ago and the second one on Friday. And the first two of her adult molars are coming up. She's growing up, our little girl. She's changed a lot as well, she's always been a bit cheeky and sometimes quite naughty but now she's changed into a very good little girl, she's very protective of her sister, looks after her and takes care of her and she tries to make sure no one is left out. She's still no angel but she's changed.

Kristín Lára however is still a little bully towards her sister, but like she said the other day, she is trying to do better.

Sólveig Lilja - the artist

We went to the farm last weekend and Sólveig Lilja got to play a bit with my camera. Interesting pictures she took, you can see them here.

Knitting

I've been knitting and crocheting a bit lately, first a few neck warmers (or as Bob calls them, jumpers with no arms and no body) and now, I've just made a pair of wrist warmers (or, gloves with no fingers) for myself. I made neck warmers for the girls and they look so pretty with them :) Here are more pictures of the things I've been making.
