I figured if there was any room for me I might get a chance to be an assistant to one of the examiners, or if not then there might be some need for me someplace else in the House Cup. Well a couple of days ago I learned that I did indeed get a position on the owl staff, but not as an assistant like I thought I would, but instead I'm going to be one of the four examiners :-D
This means that I defenetly need a new avatar:

I'm kinda nervous about this, but at the same time I'm very excited and I really hope that I will be able to do a good job!Stormmoonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16171869212210831030noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271477165408335204.post-86487777776746146852013-03-14T17:13:00.002-07:002013-03-17T15:25:53.203-07:00Winter 2013 OWL<a data-pin-config="above" href="//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fstormmoon-knits.blogspot.no%2F2013%2F03%2Fwinter-2013-owl.html&media=http%3A%2F%2F2.bp.blogspot.com%2F-NmhEVya2a24%2FUUJnmmaBxNI%2FAAAAAAAAAO4%2FPWprdsKynCE%2Fs320%2F2013-02-17%2B17.36.34-1.jpg&description=Firebird%20Socks%20by%20Janel%20Leidman" data-pin-do="buttonPin" ><img src="//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png" /></a>

This time around I'm only doing one pair of socks for my OWL. BUT they are massive colorwork socks, my first pair of all colorwork socks actually.<br />
<br />
I'm using <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/firebird-3">Janel Leidmans Firebird pattern</a> and custom dyed yarn from <a href="http://www.springtreeroad.com/">Springtree Road</a>. My plan is to make them in golden yellow and fiery red to represent the feathers of a Phoenix.<br />
<br />
So far I've finished the first sock and gotten started on the second one. And if I do ten rows each day I should be able to finish it before the month ends.<br />

I've also been knitting away on a <a href="http://knitting-up-a-storm.blogspot.no/2007/04/5-in-paris.html">short sleeved sweater</a> I started on last Friday. And I don't know if it's because I'm in love with the yarn or what, but it seems to just fly of the needles. This is as far as I have gotten on it in 4 days, while I've worked 8 hour shifts on 3 of those days :-D<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Jeg har også strikket ivei på en <a href="http://knitting-up-a-storm.blogspot.no/2007/04/5-in-paris.html">kortarmet genser</a> som jeg begynte på sist Fredag. Jeg vet ikke helt om det er fordi jeg elsker garnet eller hva, men det virker nesten som om genseren flyr av pinnene. Dette er så lang som jeg er kommet på den i løpet av 4 dager, samtidig som jeg har jobbet 8 timers skift 3 av de dagene :-D</span><br />

I have also gotten halfway on my OWL shawl, and about 20 rounds left before the halfway point on the top. But I really have to get going on the spinning, because I'm kinda far behind on that.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Jeg har også kommet halvveis på OWL sjalet jeg holder på med, og jeg har ca 20 runder igjen før jeg er halvveis på toppen. Men jeg må virkelig sette igang med å spinne for der ligger jeg "litt" etter.</span></div>

The Bad/Det Vonde</h3>
<div>
So last Sunday (6 May 2012) was one of the most horrible days ever! On Saturday I picked up all the ingredients I needed to bake some cakes for my mom's birthday (7 May), I just had to work an early shift at the hotel first. So Sunday started out with me waking about once every hour, because I had this insane angst that I was going to sleep through the alarm, and be late to a very hectic day at work. First thing I did was let the dogs out into the garden, while I went into my cellar to get my work clothes from the dryer. On my way back in I noticed that one of my dogs (Amor) wasn't there, I kept calling for him, but nothing. And since I don't work at a place where you can call in sick or anything like that, I had to leave even though he stil wasn't back. So I called my mom and got my babybrother to drive to my house and see if he had gotten back. And eventually he found him.... he had gotten caught in a fox trap in the forest, about 30 meters from my house!!! With the help of my stepdad we we're able to saw off the trap, and get him loose. And while I rushed back to work my brother stayed with him to make sure he was okay. And as soon as I finished work my stepdad drove us to the vet so he could be checked. Amor had a lot of swelling around his neck, and was very unstable on his feet. The vet gave him some painkillers and we went back home. But first we stopped by the man who owned the trap, and arranged for him to pay the bill from the vet, and get rid of any other traps he might have set up, because they are illegal from 15 April till 15 September.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sist søndag (6 Mai 2012) var en av de værste dagene i mitt liv! Lørdagen handlet jeg inn det jeg trengte for å lage kaker til mamma sin bursdag (7 Mai), alt jeg trengte var å jobbe tidligvakt på hotellet først. Natt til søndag våknet jeg omtrent en gang i timen, fordi jeg hadde helt angst for at jeg skulle forsove meg. Når jeg våknet søndagen åpnet jeg døren og slapp hundene ut, mens jeg hentet klærne ifra tørketrommelen i kjelleren. På vei opp igjen til huset så jeg at den ene av hundene (Amor) var vekk. Jeg ropte og ropte på han, men ingen hund. Tilslutt var jeg bare nødt til å sykle på jobb. Jeg ringte til mamma og fikk min lillebror til å kjøre inn for å se om han var kommet tilbake. Han fant han tilslutt..... han satt fast i en revesaks, omtrent 30 meter fra huset mitt, i skogen!!! Med hjelp av min stefar fikk vi sagd av fellen slik at vi fikk han løs. Deretter var det fort tilbake på jobb mens min bror passet på hunden. Og så fort jeg var ferdig på jobb kjørte min stefar oss til dyrlegen. Amor var veldig opphovnet rundt halsen, og veldig ustø når han prøvde å stå. Dyrlegen gav han smertestillende, og deretter kjørte vi hjem igjen. Men først stoppet vi hos han som eide fellen og avtalte at han skulle betale dyrlege regningen og fjerne de andre fellene han har satt ut, fordi det er ulovlig å ha slike feller ute fra 15 April til 15 September.</div>

<h3>
The Good/The Gode</h3>
<div>
Amor is doing much better as the swelling goes down. It will probably take a couple more days before the swelling is completely down. But he is able to walk in a straight line, and he has a good appetite. And he's even running to the door and barking when our cats want to come in.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Det går mye bedre med Amor. Det kommer sikkert til å ta noen dager til før hevelsen er helt vekke, men han klarer å gå i en rett linje, og han har veldig god matlyst. Og han løper til og med til døren og bjeffer når kattene vil inn.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
The Yummy/The Smakfulle</h3>
<div>
Today I finally got around to making one of the cakes that I had planned for my mom's birthday: Spicy honeycake. I didn't have enough Heather Honey so I supplemented with some Acacia Honey that I also had in my cupboard.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Idag lagde jeg endelig en av kakene som jeg hadde planlagt til mamma sin bursdag: Krydret Honningkake. Jeg hadde ikke nok lynghonning så jeg blandet inn litt Acacia honning som jeg hadde i skapet.</div>

And I've already started planning my next OWL projects, this will be my 6th OWL (actually my 7th attempt, I tried to do two OWL projects at the same time last spring, and that did not go to well). And this time around I'm going to attempt an Transfiguration OWL using the Vanishing Option.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Neste semester i <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/hp-knitting-crochet-house-cup">Harry Potter Knitting/Crochet House Cup</a> på Ravelry begynner første Mai. Og jeg holder allerede på å planlegge mitt neste OWL prosjekt, dette kommer til å bli min 6 OWL (det er faktisk mitt 7 forsøk, jeg prøvde å gjøre 2 OWL samtidig sist år, og det gikk ikke så bra). Denne gangen så skal jeg prøve meg på en Transfiguration OWL ved å få garn/fiber til å "forsvinne" og bli noe nytt.</span><br />
<br />
For this OWL I'm going to make 2 things knitting about 1600 yards. The Transfiguration OWL requires atleast 1800 yards, so for the rest I'm going spin some yarn.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">For denne OWL å skal jeg strikke 2 ting som tilsammen blir ca 1600 yards med garn. Men for Transfiguration OWL trenger jeg minst 1800 yards, derfor skal jeg spinne garn for resten.</span><br />
<br />

<li>Candy floss handspun yarn/<span style="color: #274e13;">håndspunnet garn</span></li>
</ol>
<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
1. <a href="http://knititude.com/patterns/dayflower-lace-camisoledress">The Dayflower Camisole</a> will be knitted using <a href="http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/us/yarn.php?id=94">Drops Cotton light</a> in the color light lilac. With the exception of the small band with eyelets that the cord is drawn through, that part I want to use off white, and have the cord in the light lilac<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">1. <a href="http://knititude.com/patterns/dayflower-lace-camisoledress">The Dayflower Camisole</a> tenkte jeg at jeg skulle strikke med <a href="http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/no/visgarn.php?garn=CottonLight">Drops Cotton light</a> i fargen lys syrin. Med unntak av det lille båndet med hull til bånd, den tenkte jeg at skulle bli natur med lys syrin bånd.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
2. <a href="http://carinaspencer.com/shop/catkin/">The Catkin</a> shawl will be knitted with <a href="http://www.verdantgryphon.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=46">Eidos</a> from <a href="http://www.verdantgryphon.com/">the Verdant Gryphon</a>. I will use the White goddess color as the main color, and Ragnarok for the contrast color. I'm also using this shawl for the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/fantasia">Fantasia group</a> on Ravelry, as part of the<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/fantasia/2088921/1-25"> Leviathan workshop</a>. Reading<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_(Westerfeld_novel)"> the Leviathan</a>, and knitting this steampunk inspired shawl is going to be so much fun!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">2. <a href="http://carinaspencer.com/shop/catkin/">The Catkin</a> sjalet vil jeg strikke med <a href="http://www.verdantgryphon.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=46">Eidos</a> fra <a href="http://www.verdantgryphon.com/">the Verdant Gryphon</a>. Jeg skal bruke The White Goddess som hovedfarge, og Ragnarok som kontrastfarge. Jeg skal også bruke dette sjalet til <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/fantasia">Fantasia gruppen</a> på Ravelry, som en del av<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/fantasia/2088921/1-25"> Leviathan workshop</a>. Å lese<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_(Westerfeld_novel)"> the Leviathan</a>, mens jeg strikker dette steampunk inspirerte sjalet kommer til å bli veldig gøy!</span><br />
<br />
3. My Candy Floss handspun yarn will be spun on a top whorl spindle using 'Candy Floss' fiber that I bought from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hilltopcloud">HilltopCloud</a>. And I'm going to try a completly new to me technique with this one; Navaho plying. I have 100 grams of this fiber, which consists of 40% BFL, 40% Merino and 20% Tussah silk.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">3. Candy Floss håndspunnet garnet vil bli spunnet med en håndteine og 'Candy Floss' fiberet jeg kjøpte fra <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hilltopcloud">HilltopCloud</a>. Jeg har i tillegg tenkt å prøve en ny teknikk med dette garnet; Navaho plying. Jeg har 100 gram av dette fiberet som består av 40% BFL (Blue Faced Leicester), 40% Merino og 20% Tussah silke.</span><br />

<br>Today I finally got around to blocking my first ever lace doily. It's made from a pattern called "Frosted Ferns" by Herbert Niebling, and I made it using laceweight bamboo yarn I got as a gift from <a href="http://katvik.wordpress.com/">Rromera</a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Idag startet jeg endelig på å strekke ut min aller første kunstrikket duk. Den er laget etter et mønster som heter "Frosted Ferns" laget av Herbert Niebling. Selve duken er strikket med et tynt bambus garn som jeg fikk av <a href="http://katvik.wordpress.com/">Rromera</a></span><br />

<span style="color: #274e13;">Først i pakken var det en kjempefin Harry Potter konvolutt med et brev der hun forklarer hvor hun har fått inspirasjonen til alle tingene.</span></div>

Today my Ginkgo shoulderette shawl was finally finished blocking. This is part of my latest OWL project in the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/hp-knitting-crochet-house-cup">Harry Potter group on Ravelry</a>. This time around I'm doing a divination OWL, and I'm making this shawl, a doily, a tea cozy and a pair of fingerless gloves to help me with my Tarot divination. It's made from a free pattern that you can find <a href="http://www.southernselkie.com/blog/2011/01/ginkgo-shoulderette-shawl-free-knitting-pattern/">here</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">I dag ble også det siste sjalet mitt ferdig med blokkingen. Dette er en del av mitt siste OWL prosjekt i <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/hp-knitting-crochet-house-cup">Harry Potter gruppen på Ravelry</a>. Denne gangen holder jeg på med en spådom OWL, og jeg lager dette sjalet, en kunstrikket duk, tekanne skjuler og et par med pulsvarmere for hjelpe meg med Tarot lesing. Sjalet er laget etter en gratis oppskrift som du kan finne<a href="http://www.southernselkie.com/blog/2011/01/ginkgo-shoulderette-shawl-free-knitting-pattern/"> her</a>, obs mønsteret er på engelsk.</span></div>

On Ravelry I'm part of this great little secret swap group called <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/reducio-sock-mini-sock-swap">"Reducio Sock"</a>, which is inspired by Harry Potter. Where we make small items and send to a secret partner, and atleast one of the things has to be a minisock. This time around the theme was: Hogwarts Common Rooms. And my secret partner was someone in the House of Gryffindor, so I made her a minisock with a Gryffindor crest. I also made a tiny cat to represent a transfigured Professor McGonagal :-D And since she loves faeries I also made a little fairy doll for her.</div>

<span style="color: #274e13;">På Ravelry er jeg medlem av en kjekk liten byttegruppe kalt <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/reducio-sock-mini-sock-swap">"Reducio Swap"</a>, some er inspirert av Harry Potter. Der lager vi små ting og sender til en hemmelig partner, og minst en av tingene må være en minisokk. Denne runden var temaet : Fellesrommene på Hogwarts. Min hemmelige partner var en fra Gryffindor, så jeg laget en minisokk med Gryffindor løven på. Jeg laget også en liten katt, som er Proffessor McGonagal når hun er i katteform. Og siden partneren min elsker feer/alver, laget jeg en liten fe/alve dukke til henne.</span></div>

This one is made from a buy pattern that you can find <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/94068123/waldorf-toy-cat-knitting-pattern-pdf">here</a>. The pattern called for DK yarn, but I made mine using fingering weight yarn and 2 mm needles.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Denne laget jeg etter et kjøpe mønster som du kan finne <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/94068123/waldorf-toy-cat-knitting-pattern-pdf">her</a>. Mønsteret var egentlig for sportsgarn, men jeg brukte tynt sokkegarn og 2 mm pinner.</span></div>

Yesterday I finish my second single yarn, and this time around it went much quicker and looks more even than the first single :-D</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">I går ble jeg ferdig med mitt andre nøste, og denne gangen gikk det mye fortere og det ser jevnere ut enn først nøste.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After I got home from work yesterday I started plying the two singles together. Then I skein it, soaked it in soapy water, before rinsing it and twacking it to get the kinks out. Then I just let it dry.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Etter at jeg kom hjem fra jobb igår begynte jeg å tvinne de to nøstene sammen. Deretter vindte jeg det til en hespe, bløtla det i litt såpevann, for så å skylle det. Deretter lot jeg det henge til tørk.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

All in all I ended up with about 110 yards of DK/Worsted weight 2 ply yarn.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Alt i alt endte jeg opp med ca 100 meter med garn som veier 50 gram.</span></div>Stormmoonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16171869212210831030noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271477165408335204.post-45334447138958899162012-02-28T15:14:00.002-08:002012-03-06T09:49:43.294-08:00<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Idag prøvde jeg for første gang å spinne med min nye håndspinner med trinse oppe, sammen med North Ronaldsay ullen som kom med lær å spinne samleboksen, som jeg kjøpte hos <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hilltopcloud?ref=seller_info">Hilltop Cloud</a>

<br />
It's kinda uneven, someplaces thick other thin. But for my first try I'm very happy with it. I will have to keep at it, trying just to do like 15 minutes a day. I will make a new post when I've finished my first single.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Det er litt ujevnt, litt tykt noen steder og tynn andre steder. Men med tanke på at det er mitt første forsøk så er jeg kjempe fornøyd. Jeg kommer til å fortsette å arbeide med det, ca 15 minutter hver dag. Og så vil jeg legge inn et nytt innlegg når jeg er ferdig med den første tråden.</span>Stormmoonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16171869212210831030noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271477165408335204.post-23466059240567395102012-01-28T17:45:00.000-08:002012-03-06T09:51:29.027-08:00Hexapuffs<div style="text-align: center;">
I've caught the Hexapox..... All of my hexapuffs are made using various fingering weight scrap yarn that I have lying around. And all of them have a little dried lavender inside. The pattern to make this addictive little things can be bought <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-beekeepers-quilt">here on Ravelry</a></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;">Let me introduce you to Honey, den søteste bamsen i hele verden. Hun liker alle ting som er søtt og er en skikkelig Hufflepuff.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made this one for myself after a pattern I bought from Susan Hickson (GREAT PATTERN), I've also bought the pattern for a couple of her other teddybears (rabbits not bears but cute none the less). Be sure to check out here <a href="http://www.maryjanestearoom.com/">Tearoom</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Jeg laget denne etter et mønster jeg kjøpte fra Susan Hickson (Kjempefine mønstre), jeg har også kjøpt noen andre bamse mønstre fra henne (kaniner ikke bamser som denne, men kjempesøte for det). Ta en tur innom hennes <a href="http://www.maryjanestearoom.com/">Tearoom</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next thing that I'm going to make for Honey will definetly be a Hufflepuff inspired outfit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Neste tingen jeg har tenkt å lage til Honey er definitivt et Hufflepuff kostyme.</span></div>Stormmoonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16171869212210831030noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271477165408335204.post-41902175515271675922011-07-29T10:20:00.001-07:002012-02-19T15:44:37.382-08:00Desert Sand and Stone<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWEt74WCc86pu9x-vBWdwbpUwzX6-863_Tnv1pRkpYTB6yJcNKZo19C0rxO-mRCbqwy69tjDZkNMGFzrnqpZHn-fT7vRubo5FF-zUbJ48NrJEEevawzEEf9jcFUVBVjyG8WoyoSIGYNRkf/s1600/desert+sand.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634825623114811026" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWEt74WCc86pu9x-vBWdwbpUwzX6-863_Tnv1pRkpYTB6yJcNKZo19C0rxO-mRCbqwy69tjDZkNMGFzrnqpZHn-fT7vRubo5FF-zUbJ48NrJEEevawzEEf9jcFUVBVjyG8WoyoSIGYNRkf/s320/desert+sand.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 240px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px;" /></a><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Farget 2 nøster med Sandnes Lanett med Wilton fargepasta. Brukte for det meste Kopper for denne, men også litt elfenben og gul.</span></div>

This was inspired by the colors of the desert sand and stone when the sun shines upon it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Ble inspirert av fargen av solen som skinner på ørken sand og stein når jeg farget denne.</span></div>

2 skeins of Sandnes Lanett handdyed by me using Wilton colorpaste. I used mainly the Royal Blue color, but also added a little black and purple to the mix. The skeins where first in a vinegar bath before I added the dye using a spoon. It was then steamed and rinsed, before I let it hang to dry.</div>

I love the pattern on these Cookie A socks, but it got a bit lost in the striping of the yarn. But I still love them! Pattern is from the book Sock Innovation.<br />

These will be my Bellatrix Lestrange socks, the pattern is called the Gardener. Like Bellatrix they are nice and curly on the front, but on the back there is a poisonous spider. I'm using Dream in Color Smooshy for them and also adding 14 translucent 6/0 beads with a silver center<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Disse sokkene er til Bellatrix Lestrange, mønsteret heter The Gardener. Og akkurat som Bellatrix ser de fine ut framme, men på baksiden er det en giftig edderkopp. Jeg skal bruke Dream in Color Smooshy til disse, og jeg har og tenkt å bruke 14 gjennomsiktige 6/0 perler med sølv i midten også.</span><br />
