Madame Kalash

A trip to the countryside is a reason to dress in knits and vintage! And also chanterelles (trattkantareller in Swedish!) #knitsky

Next up in me doing some historical reenactment knitting: this ww1 vest, knitting pattern from The Red Cross. Just need to get a correctly colored yarn for it (oxford blue). #knitsky

It's blocked and ready! Knit and resist! Bring back the #Motståndsluva #knitsky #nopasaran #knittersagainstfaschism

I hyperfocused and now I'm almost done with my Motståndsluva! Left to do is blocking, weaving in ends and making a tassel. Pics will follow.

Jag började för ett år sen, hade inte heller stickat sen högstadiet (men virkat). Grunderna fanns där och sen gick det rätt fort! Lycka till!

Got this photo from a Norwegian friend!
The text says: "Warning. Red hats is now so common that it is to be seen as an act of resistance. Use of these red hats is forbidden from 28th of February 1942."

En bok jag köpte på Tradera! Postade foton i en annan tråd, men kan posta igen. Bokstäverna är mitt eget tillägg dock.

Did I frog it twice? Yes. Once because I knitted the wording backwards, and once because I misspelled pasaran 🙃
But I hyperfocused and fixed it, trying to finish my Motståndsluva ASAP ❤️✊

...also check your spelling #frognr2

Note to self: when knitting letters, remember you knit in the other direction than you read. 🤡 #knitsky #frogit

It's in the thread!

As good as I could translate!

Lovely mittens! You find the translated resistance beanie in the thread!

Let's bring back the Motståndsluva! According to the description this red winter beanie was knit by Norwegians during the German occupation during WW2, and thus got banned. Knit and resist racism and fascism ✊I can translate to English for those interested! #knitsky #knittersagainstfascism

I couldn't find my knitting needles in the chaos after moving, so I made a cosy autumn shawl instead.
Yarn: Norsk Ullgarn Troll

Ooh it was this one! I got two different skeins as a gift!

A very simple double folded cowl for my kiddo #knitsky #wearables

Breaking! Real live footage of a beaver! Five minutes from where I live. 😍

Thank you! It was, and I made a lot of mistakes. But I figured that is so I'll learn to next time. ❤️

Doneee
I have even tried it on an outing. The lining got fucked up, but for a first try with steeking, I'm ok with it. #knitsky

Thank you ❤️

Thank you!! ❤️

Almost there... 1/2 sleeve, steek and ribbing front left. This was also meant as a stash buster, but I just had go go buy more dark grey. 😅 #knitsky #strandedcolorwork #folksy

I would 100% watch a spinoff with these two idiots creating chaos. I love them so much.
Loki: "You're not in love with me, are you?"
Puck:"Not at the moment."
These are the shape-shifting queer villains we all need. Spinoff please.

This makes me really happy to hear! Thank you ❤️

Oh... ehm...it's actually free handed. 😅 if it turns out ok maybe I could try to make a pattern? And thank you! ❤️

...and fastening a thousand ends... 😅

Left to do: Steeking, ribbing with button holes, sleeves. But it's starting to look like a cardigan! #knitsky

The sweater I finished in October! Been knitting non stop ever since! I guess that's why it feels like I've done it longer than a year. ❤️
