Min nevø / My nephew

En af mine nevøer er virkelig fantastisk betænksom og sød. Derfor kom jeg til at love ham en sweater, og en aften han kom på besøg, blev han så sat i sofaen med en ordentlig stak strikkebøger. (Hans kusine, min mindste niece, havde temmelig ondt af ham....)
Nå, men det tog ham max 20 minutter, så havde han både fundet garn og opskrift. (Altså - kan man finde en bedre nevø at strikke til?)
Garnet blev de her to bløde nogle - den nederste er cashmere fra Kina, den øverste genbrugt kameluld fra garnudsalg. Begge er utroligt bløde!

One of my nephews is really amazing, very considerate and nice. So I happened to promise him a sweater, and one evening when he was visiting, he sat on the couch with a huge pile of books.
(His cousin, my youngest niece, really felt sorry for him......)
Anyway - it took him less than 20 minutes, and then yarn and pattern were picked. (Well - can you find a better nephew to knit for?)
The yarn was these to soft ones - the bottom one is cashmere from China, the top one recycled camel from garnudsalg. Both are so soft!

Han var også så venlig at finde et mønster på pind 4,5! Denne her fra bogen "Dæxel" af Marianne Isager.
Jeg synes faktisk snart jeg må se at komme i gang - mon ikke stakken af babytøj er ved at være høj nok?

He was also kind enough to find a pattern for 4.5 mm needles! This one is from the book "Dæxel" by Marianne Isager.
I do think I need to get started soon - I hope the pile of baby's clothes should be tall enough just for now?
