Heading forward

Yep, I got the book in the mail today. YAY! Now I can make stuff on my way to Stavanger friday next week, hehe It’s a BIG book with a lot of patterns and explanations. And since it’s in English, I’ll be able to connect my already known Norwegian crochet terms with the english/american ones, and I can then read patterns on the internet too Yep, I know I go a bit crazy with different crafts sometimes, but it feels nice to actually be able to make something that can be USED, and by others, not just myself

I walked down to DownTown today, after getting the new clas ohlson catalogue in the mail. There, I bought a soldering iron and the things I needed for soldering. Because I wanted to try out the “making pendants out of microscope slides”-thing. I have made some before, but only with the metal tape. It didn’t turn out very well, but I guess most first tries don’t

And I also tested out a bjork-motif on shrinking plastic. It turned out great, if only I hadn’t messed with it while still hot, hah. But I’ll try again one more time, just maybe not today. Now I know that my newly bought overhead-pens work great on shrinking plastic (the black at least )

And now, for pictures of my (somewhat failed) crafts of today
