Bright mittens

Knitting mittens for birthdaypresents. I've finished the first pair, it's bright yellow and green. They are a present for a person that come across as a bit shy maby? But really likes bright colours!

They are going to be wet felted in the washing machine just about now, and I hope they are dry and ready when we give them away.

Project hiking 2

This week I went almost the same route as last time. Still cold and nice weather, but a bit more snow.

I mostly walk in snow, this give some extra strength and cardio exercise.

There is supposed to be a path down here..

Again I met the deer, more curious than last time.

What are you looking at?

It always feels good to be out walking like this, I take my time, but that does not mean I don't get exhausted, knee deep snow is really heavy.

Project hiking 1

This fall I started to get back out and in to the forest again. I grew up in a family with a lot of lumberjacks, it has made me a bit addicted to outdoors life.

My goal is to have at least one good hike each week. In the beginning I've mainly been getting to know my surrounding.

Drawing again

After years of just wanting to draw I've finally pulled my act together and started drawing again. In my senior high school years and during college I drew a lot and in many different techniques. This I have missed almost all the time since, that is visible if you take a look in my study, it's practically bursting with art supplies..

My first drawing that I have finished is a pastel drawing on colored paper. I'm really fond of colored paper, it creates more life and depth in a drawing.
