För oss alla små ekorrar och hamstrar:
Flitiga Myran skriver om utställningen som börjar imorgon på Nordiska muséet,
"Vad är det som väcker samlaren inom oss, hur börjar man samla, på vad och är det möjligt att sluta samla?"
Naturligtvis går det inte att sluta, eller hur Susanne?

From an UFO to a WIP
My unfinished cardigan (knitted 2004) has now a collar. It's knitted in Wåhlstedts Yarn named Marsbjörk - Birch in March.
Originally it was a sweater knitted to my husband in 1983! After years of wearing I frogged it and now it will soon be a very warm cardigan to me.
To knit in public was very nice. We talked about going to Karlstad with Sticka and see the mittens exhibition Vantar mellan tummen och pekfingret.
A train full of knitting people it's a tempting idea.
