by Arne & Carlos


yesterday I had a great november sunday
first a visit here






tea shopping here
mini cupcake and cappuccino by Agnes

- then it was time for the workshop with Arne & Carlos
(....yes, Julekugler, Knitted Christmas Balls)




it was so inspirational to hear them talk about their knitwear design
(....which was new for me. I had only heard about the balls...)













I like the way Arne & Carlos use classic patterns from old family knitwear
and mix it with modern ideas - all in a very humoristic way

you can knit your own Arne & Carlos knitwear too

I'm sure, my husband would love me to knit him
a space invaders hat (...or sweater)

...but I will start with the Christmas ornaments
...have you seen these.....!?

  3. så gøy at du ble inspirert av arne og carlos sin "verden" : ) jeg har tenkt til å brodere en av deres puter snart http://www.dalegarn.com/catalog_list.php?hType=new
    har aldri broderet før men en gang må jo være den første. kan være gøy å prøve litt annet enn strikking hele tiden : )

    boken du likte er sophie dahl sin kokebok. den er akkurat kommet på norsk, liker den veldig godt. heter frodige fristelser : ) din suppe hørtes nydelig ut, jeg er vild med supper!

    fin helg til deg mette,
    klem
