It’s in the middle of the night and it’s freezing cold in Stockholm. The hoarfrost looks beautiful on the trees and bikes in the yard. Tonight I’ve been crocheting again. I have lots of ideas for the Etsy shop thanks to a couple of friends from school, that I had coffee with earlier today. So I have been quite busy and wearing the concentrated sturgeon face while watching...

I had a very crafty Saturday yesterday. I started a Facebook Group for myself and my crafty friends - Crafty Beavers Stockholm (Of course I chose the name of the group with the wonderful Amy Sedaris in mind.). I thought it would be nice to be creative with someone else than myself, sometimes. Me and some of my friends all have the creativity in common, so I wanted to encourage it. So yesterday we...

How Are You?
eintr: A question and my response, for your general amusement and continued bewilderment: > Wassup? Doing well, old friend. The hours, they fill with mumbled sorting algorithms amongst people with beards, grand ideas and minute social skills. Matching short-sleeve white shirts and black ties ensure patterned safety within the herd. Somebody said Jenkins heard hyenas over by the legal dept...

Monday
Today I had an exam in Swedish grammar. Meaning four hours of being stuck in a room with 40 other students, trying to figure out the correct phrases, place the right words in the correct columns and so on and so forth. I drank lots of coffee, ate pumpkin seeds and gingerbread biscuits. The art outside the hall where we had the exam is not very encouraging. What’s better at the moment is...

I’m almost done with The Wristwarmers For a Fellow Librarian. I blocked them tonight. Now I just need to weave in the ends and tag them with the Frog-label, before they’re good to go and warm a librarians’ busy hands. It’s a pleasant thought. I really do hope she’ll like them. I will post pictures of them here tomorrow since I’m planning of making them in...
