Being old enough to have knit in the 70ies and 80ies, I would say finding a book of hønsestrik, or alterknit patterns, will be the best and most authentic way to use an old stash of mixed wool. :)

It is just a vanilla sock, but I purled the sole and heel. I am sure there are patterns out there, I did not use one.

Lol, it is a result of colour experimentation and great light for the photo. I am a bit overwhelmed by the colours, but they fit the pattern really well.

That is gorgeous! Love your colours! I am flattered to inspire something that gorgeous.

I don't think they would pay 5000$ a pair, which is the cost of my labour.

It is when the knit stitches turn in towards the foot, smoother than purls.

Rømmegrøt as a bar? What kind of heresy is this?

From the force disconnected you are, Padawan. Your center you must find.

You should have felt it coming. Anything could happen in the north!

It is always difficult to get even stitches in cotton.
