#throwback

11 posts11 participants1 post today
Somehow, I always end up posting my throwbacks on every day except Thursday, and here we are yet again lol. In my early crochet days (circa 6+ years ago) one of my hyperfixations was magic blankets and other "magic" items. Double stranding alternating colors? Heck yeah, absolutely my jam lol!

I got the idea from Kim's Magic Blankets on FB who, in turn, got it from the Zooty Owl blog (only, Kim took it way farther). This is a great idea for when you have leftover scrap yarn, fugly yarn, etc and you can also just make color changing yarn cakes as a fun project. The sky is the limit!

I've used this method to create everything from blankets to mats for my dogs to market bags to scarves, cowls, and beanies. The only difference is that I prefer HDC over DC. I definitely recommend trying it if you haven't already 😃!

Thorr's Hammer ‎– Dommedagsnatt

It's quite funny that there was a discussion on the largest forum in Norway (VGdebatt) in the early 2000s about whether Runhild Gammelsæter was a real Norwegian person. The reason was that "Runhild" was perceived as too strange a name. I never thought so, though.

Now, of course, we know better, and the song "Norge" has even become the national anthem of Norway (I wish).
