at home - baby toy: oslo / october 2012

the baby gym is much more fun with home made toys

at home - baby toy: oslo / october 2012

i made this for my baby boys high chair.
a friendly face to watch and a healthy vegetable to get to know before he will even taste it.

at home - a shelf: oslo / august 2012

at home - a stool: oslo / may 2012

  ok, i'm back after some time off the blog... and i will try to post pictures more regularly again. these months i haven' had a lot of time. i've moved to another apartment and i have given birth to a fantastic little boy. i haven't had much time for any knitting but i've tried to make our new home a nice and cozy place. here is one of the things i made:

a standard ikea Bekväm step stool

which i think looks nicer with some paint and fabric

copenhagen: denmark / march 2012

painted wooden grafitti near christiania

i really don't know what this kind of crafting is called. 
is it a sort of weaving with yarn, beads, plastic and paper ?

how about using daddy's old ties for a sort of decoration

at home: oslo / january 2012

i bought myself an iphone and i wanted just the right cover for it. and you know that is not possible to buy :) so i made this cover based on an idea from the magazine Mollie Makes:

i'm sorry that the colours of the photos are not the same.

blinderen (and helping a robot): oslo / september 2011

a friend of mine made this fluffy knit for me...

...so i put it on a tree close to the university
where we both studied some time ago.

just some metres from that tree i found this little babybot lying
on the ground with his wheels spinning. he carried a flag with
the message "help me get to the digital circus at the university
of oslo" (cause there was the digital idea festival there
this day)...

so i helped him up so he could go on with his
task. as a part of the idea festival little robots
were placed in the centre of oslo and moving
straight forward were the only thing they
could do. so they needed kind people to make
them go in the right direction. the one i found
managed to go all the way. i found him just
100m away from the university, so we walked
the last bit together :)

new label!

my new label has arrived! now strangers will see my blog address when they stumble upon my knitting :)
the old one (above) said: "therese made this one for you"
