Throwback Scarf And Celebration

 

This year my advent candles are homemade. We had some snow - it is gone now. But made a great frame.

As we celebrate Christmas and that the light has overcome darkness forever I will wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy new year. 

I know, a lot of people can't see happiness right now - but there is always light even in the midst of darkness. I hope that you will have blessed days where you are.


I am not much of a knitter these days. I am unsure if I am ever able to knit again. But that does not mean life is over - the first few days it felt like it... LOL! 

Things never turn out the way we want and it is more like how we handle it when it doesn't. I have decided to wait and see - my shoulders could recover. Or they may not. 

The really amazing thing is that I appreciate every single stitch I have knitted through the years. Even more than when I could just knit what I wanted. 

All the scarves and shawls. All the sweaters I can use this winter. I have been blessed and the blessings continue every time I wear my colorful stitches. 

I found one of the scarves knitted in 2013 on 2mm circular needles in 30cm length. 

I can't imagine I actually did that. I used it again and I felt to lucky to have been able to knit it. So much fun. The pattern is from a mittens chart. If you would like to know more you can find my Fiddlehead scarf here.

Getting outside is always lovely with the fresh air and the sun. A little trip to Tjøm was such a joy. Let me show you how it looked in the sun that is really low right now.

It was so quiet and there were only us there. The sound of the small waves was soothing and the air was so fresh. So happy I was able to get this experience. 

The Fiddlehead scarf got a swing in the wind. After all the pattern is called that for a reason. The designer Adrian Bizilla has named it after furled funds of a young fern. They are used as vegetables apparently.


I leave you with another photo from where the waves rolls in and the sun is shining. Don't let the world tell you there are no light. I wish you well and a blessed Christmas.

The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it

  1. Hello my friend! I'm sorry your shoulders are hurting. I will pray for you. Your scarf is absolutely gorgeous. Perhaps you could paint if you aren't able to knit? You have a great color-sense. Merry Christmas...

    1. Thank you so much dear Debbie❣️ I’m a terrible artist when it comes to painting🙈 I wish I could though. But I’ll find something to create. Right now I do a little paper crafting. That’s fun too. Merry Christmas and thank you ever so much for your prayers❤️
