May fire

Today has been a bit strange day!
We have just picking up a table, leaving a couple of tires at a car shop, bying charcoal for the barbecue, cleaning up a bit and looking at mails and aswered some. This is on my and my co-workers workingplace, it has been a kind of relaxin day actually.

I think we all looking forward to the May fire this evening. I´m actually going to two May fires. First the big one in Örebro. Some friends (Niklas and Steinar + some moore peoples) are actually setting on the May fire with arrows. And they later on that evening will show it more closly at our own smaller May fire :-)):-)). That will be fun because I´m kind of filming the thing in Örebro and probably will be concentrating on filming :-)):-)). And then we will see how the evning turns out, nice I hope.
May fire is a swedish thing to celebrate that spring has come, and we do this celebartion every year.

Have a nice weekend everyone and take care

Hos änglarna - With the angels

A sad day
My sisters dog daschhound bitch Elsa (Snickarn´s Elsa Engel) is with the angels now :-(. I hope she will hunt everything in her usual fast speed there. Take care Elsa!

En sorgens dag idag.
Min systers taxtik Elsa (Snickarn´s Elsa Engel) har gått vidare till änglarna :-(. Jag hoppas att hon där får jaga allt i sin väg med sin vanliga snabba fart. Ha det bra Elsa!

Susie´s Reading Mitts

April Mitts

Well I have now finished my april mitts for "StickaMeras" Pulsclub 2009.

It was the first time ever I had knitted after english pattern. With some translating help it went on quite fine actually :-)):-)). The yarn I used is "Tynn Alpacka" and it is really soft and nice to knitt with, I can recommend it. I did some changes so it would fit me and my hands. Like having fever stiches and not knitting so many rounds on the thumb.
Then I should take a picture on them, that didn´t go so fine at all. It is hard to have them on your hands and trying to take a photo :-)). So I tried and this is the result :-).

have a nice day

Mari + dogs

Vinge + kajak

Hello out there

Well it has been a nice sunny day but a cold one, brrrr. I was actually filming with a camera today for the first time in my life. At work my co-worker John and Steinar should try the kajak in the lake, Steinar has built it. So it was a bit of a test to se if it worked as it should do. And yes it did work fine and no one fell into the water. And it was quite fun to film, I will se tommorow how it became, hopefully it was something to se :-)).

Ohh soon my "Vinge" shawl is finished, it is not so much left to do on it. I will continue to knitt as long as I have yarn to knitt with. It is 1:tread wool yarn from Ullcentrum that I use for it. It was not so hard to knitt it actually, i´m a bit suprprised that I handled it so easy. I might do one moore, who knows!!! On the picture (wich is taken by a mobile phone) I just have begin with it, so it dosen´t look so funny at all. And I now understand why everyone talking about to "block" the stuff that you have knitted :-)):-)). You have to straighten it out to see the nice pattern.

Have a nice day until next time

Mari + the dogs in Nora

Hej alla
Jag har nu skapat en ny blog. I den här är det mycket lättare att lägga in bilder och man kan ändra på layouten på ett enklare sätt om man vill. Den gamla bloggen finns kvar ett tag och den kan ni hitta på denna adress:
http://www.blogtown.se/blog.php?id=mari-g
I den här nya bloggen kommer jag att skriva på engelska då och då, men det kommer även att skrivas på svenska också. Förhopningsvis kanske nån kan titta på min engelska och rätta det som är galet och felstavat :-)):-)) nån gång då och då.

By by for this time
