Vinneren er kåret, det ble en heldig snelle fra Tønsberg som fikk meg til å le høyt av sitt bidrag. Jeg ler faktisk litt enda bare på tanken. Takk for det frøken!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Da jeg postet konkurransen så lovte jeg dere også å vise frem mine egne Dreams of Norway smykker. Og her er et av de. Et fantastisk enkelt og fint slavearmbånd, eller Bollywoodarmbånd som mange også velger å kalle det. Det kommer opprinnelig med en tynn enkel sølvring som binder leddene sammen. Jeg har valgt å bytte den ut med litt stæsj fra Perlehuset. For øyeblikket er det et gullfarget blad som pryder lanken. Men jeg har også kjøpt inn både hodeskaller og fugler som skal få lov til å pynte opp hånden min. Elsker at armbåndet er så enkelt at man fint kan sette sitt personlige preg på det! Er for øyeblikket på utkikk etter noen gule eller turkise perler som jeg tror vil se kjempefine ut sammen med dette armbåndet, en perfekt sommerlook! Hvis dere titter innom <a href="http://dreamsofnorway.com/category/bracelets/">hjemmesiden</a> til Dreams of Norway, så er det det nederste armbåndet jeg har.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">You might remember the Dream of Norway contest I posted some weeks ago?

Here is one of my favorites, this slave bracelet. It's quite clean and simple, so I decided to customize it. I got myself some gems at Perlehuset and are now showing off different versions of this bracelet.

I'm glad, though, because if I wasn't I would never have been  able to make this beautiful thing. First off, I must say that I find  old pictures really romantic, but somehow I've completely forgotten  about the fact that I myself have taken a lot of photographs throughout the  years. Today I decided to go through my forgotten photo-albums, and man was I  surprised when I saw what I had saved. <span style="font-style: italic;">Treasures!</span> Lots and lots of  treasures! I find myself somewhat overwhelmed, to be honest; because  while I've been busy tumbling similar pictures by others, I never  stopped to think that I myself might have some. I have in fact been a little girl running around with my parents camera! I've taken pictures of the sun and the rainbow and used  flashlight to light up snowball fights and held my fingers in front of  the lens. Thank godless for that; because these are some of the most  beautiful things I've seen in a long time. I am proud; because though I  never intended for the pictures to turn out like that - I did take them  and I did save them. Now I know why. Enjoy my little DIY/art-project anno  2011. The pictures I used are from 1996 and up to cirka 2003 - and how I did it is pretty self-explanatory through these photographs, I think; but if you have any questions just ask!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5173/5582988982_8977ddac7d_z.jpg"><img style="display: block;

My knit shorts have gotten a lot of attention on the internets and in real life, for that matter - and I have received so many requests regarding them I can't even wrap my head around it. Many of you asked me if I could make you a pair, others were ready to pay me a lot of money to knit a pair for them, some asked for a recipe and a couple of you guys wanted to know where I bought it: because you didn't believe I made them. Honestly, I just got lucky. I was aiming for a kind of voluminous skirt; but somewhere in the process I decided to make shorts instead. I wish I could make a pair for every single one of you guys, but I really can't do that. So I'm doing the next best thing. Or, trying to. Here's a tutorial.</span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5099/5390727769_d08f350e03_o.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 269px;" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5099/5390727769_d08f350e03_o.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>I've never made a tutorial before, so please be gentle with me. I also never had the skills to follow knitting recipes myself, so I'm kind of making it up as I go: using my own terms and kind of winging it; much like how I came up with the idea of making these shorts in the first place. I tend to use humor as a defense mechanism when I’m insecure, which you may notice later on in this post. It's actually very, very easy to make these shorts – I just don’t know how to explain it. Imagine a medium neck cowl, sown together in the middle of one end and there you have it!<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">I only use approximate measurements, mostly because if it doesn’t fit – I make it fit. I also prefer a bit of room in my clothes for more comfort.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ingredients:</span><br />- Approximately 3 balls of yarn. I personally used PT2. PT2 is a 100%  natural Norwegian wool of highest quality, which is available <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.nordicstore.net/norwegian_pt2_wool_yarn_1478_ctg.htm">here</a>.<br />- 5 mm (US8) circular needles. You could also knit this back and forth on straight needles, but I prefer circular ones.<br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/5167044078_dab58cb72d_b.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 643px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/5167044078_dab58cb72d_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Preparations:</span><br />- First of: buy the yarn. Pretty self explanatory, but I thought I’d mention it just in case.<br />- Second: buy the needles. You will be needing them of the actual making the shorts.<br />- Third: if your mom or another friend is doing it for you, ignore the steps above and buy chocolate, flowers, wine, strawberries, scented candles and a pair of great shoes with a card that says “thank you for doing this for me”.<br />- Then; measure the length between your waist and crotch to get the approximate height of the shorts, which in my case was about 25 cm. Remember these are just ish-measurements, and I’m a size small. I didn’t have to measure the width of my bum-area because the circular needles where a perfect match to my size, but I suggest you do it and add a few cm for good luck.<br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4126/5198379232_49e267d180_b.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 431px; height: 287px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4126/5198379232_49e267d180_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">How to:</span><br />This is the tricky part; for me. I chose to knit my shorts in loose 5x5 ribs (knit 5, purl 5). Start by casting on that circular needle and measure as you go. When it comes to the width of the shorts I suggest you stretch the yarn and keep going until you reach your own measurements.  Very unspecific, I know, but true nonetheless. Then you just keep knitting in circles until you reach you preferred height and remember to cast off every tenth stitch of every third row of the purl to get that defined waist. When you've reached your measurements and finished casting of, lay it flat and measure so that you find the middle (of the wide end). Sew together 2-4 cm using the same type of yarn. So, to sum up:<br /><br />Cast on (your bum-measurement in cm) and knit approximate 4 rows of 5x5 ribs (knit 5, purl 5). Cast of every 10th stitch of every 3rd row of the purled stitches, while continuing the 5x5 ribs. Cast of loosely. Sew together 2-4 cm in the middle of the bottom part and fix those little beauty flaws.<br /><br />The best tips I have is to use your own creativity to decide what you prefer. This is only a vague guide. You can have a cleaner look with simple stitches alone, or make it even more complex with the patterns of your choice. You can use super-thick yarn to make chunky shorts, or make tight ones with thread-thin yarn. The last option is an everlasting project, I think. There are thousands of blogs and sites about knitting and recipes to guide you. The problem I have is that I took it straight out of my own imagination, and just knitted in circles, casting off to suit my waist, until I was satisfied - but I really hope this help you guys a little bit!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">*Remember to cast off somewhat loose in the end so that you don't have to redo it all when you don't get it over your bum, like I did.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Previous post on this subject: </span><a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://barkatt-barbro.blogspot.com/2010/11/diy-high-waisted-knit-shorts.html">DIY high waisted knit shorts (gray)</a><span style="font-style: italic;">, </span><a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://barkatt-barbro.blogspot.com/2010/11/im-biggest-fan-ive-got-right-now.html">DIY high waisted knit shorts (mustard w/bow)</a><span style="font-style: italic;"> and </span><a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://barkatt-barbro.blogspot.com/2010/12/its-not-all-black-and-white.html">DIY high waisted knit shorts (gray v.2)</a></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5090/5245388720_c5c172f357_b.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 644px;" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5090/5245388720_c5c172f357_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-size:78%;">Follow me around!<br /></span></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><a title="barbro andersen on bloglovin" href="http://www.bloglovin.com/no/blog/516402/barbro-andersen"><img style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" src="http://www.bloglovin.com/widget/bilder/widget_plus.gif" alt="Follow Barbro Andersen" /></a></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" ><a href="http://www.facebook.com/Blog.BarbroAndersen"> </a></span><a href="http://www.barbroandersen.tumbler.com/"><img style="width: 15px; height: 15px;" src="http://lookbook.nu/images/lbsites/tumblr.gif" alt="Follow barbroandersen on Tumblr" /></a> <a href="http://www.twitter.com/barbroandersen"><img style="width: 15px; height: 15px;" src="http://lookbook.nu/images/lbsites/twitter.gif" alt="Follow barbroandersen on Twitter" /></a> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Blog.BarbroAndersen"><img style="width: 15px; height: 15px;" src="http://lookbook.nu/images/lbsites/facebook.gif" alt="Follow me on Facebook" /> </a></span></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6035446465815422955-7471219656884260774?l=barkatt-barbro.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.moteblogger.com/2011/01/tutorial-high-waisted-knit-shorts/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <enclosure url="" length="" type="" /> </item> <item><title>DON&#8217;T THROW IT AWAY.
