Thanks, Maiken!
June 13th, 2008
Try as I might, I’ve never been able to get my two hands to coordinate enough to be a knitter. Crochet - no problem…but add an extra needle to the mix and my projects usually end up in a hopeless, jumbled mess! *LOL*
My Danish friend Maiken is a brilliant knitter & sent me images of some patterns she recently made. I convinced her to make a t-shirt style sweater for me in exchange for a papercrafted surprise. Gotta love bartering right?
A few weeks ago - I opened up a box to this wonderful teal creation…
The sweater was made from the green gable pattern found here. It has a gorgeous neckline & I really like the color.
Not only did Maiken send the sweater, but she also knitted me a fabulous white scarf for when the weather cools off!
Here’s a closer look at the stitching…
I’ve been trying to come up with something that could match such awesome gifts! I’ve got some ideas in mind & will send something your way soon, Maiken. Thanks for your patience & for being so generous with the fun exchange!
