in action — Feb 6, 2010 at 3:59 pm

Yay! Chris’s report: they are very warm and comfortable (I was afraid they were too tight, but he says not.) Warm, except the fingertips! He wants me to knit little tip-caps. I will, of course… later.

thumbing the controls — Feb 6, 2010 at 3:59 pm

It’s hard to see here, but by far the most difficult part was the thumbs. I couldn’t just pick up the stitches around the thumb and knit up, because you could see very well that the directions didn’t match. I knit the thumbs tip down and then attempted to graft them on. How on earth do you Kitchner with two colors!? I couln’t find anything about it on the internet (Internets, you have failed me!). So I tried to do one color first, then the other. It worked passably well, but the join is by no means invisible.

Here and There — January-February, 2010

Over the last couple of months I’ve been taking random iPhone pics here and there. And here they are. A little peek into our days.

Moving Out of Town — January 2, 2010

We checked out of the hotel downtown (it was a nice hotel, but expensive plus expensive parking; we moved out to the wastelands near the miles and miles of shopping malls… hey, I needed to do some shopping.)

Fun At The Airport — January 3, 2010 at 1 pm

We had some time to spend waiting at the San Francisco airport, and Apl spent some of it rifling around in the suitcase. She’s so cute!

Very Last of Christmas — January 4, 2010

On the day Apl and I arrived back in Oslo, we opened the presents Grandma Susie sent home with us, and there was a package from Mercedes waiting, too!
