My room 2.0 or something.

onsdag, augusti 31st, 2011

I haven’t shown any pictures of my room in ages, because it’s been such a mess. But a couple of days ago, Frej and I went on a mission; borrowed Axel’s car and bought a loft bed each from a guy in Majorna, his kids had gotten tired of them I guess. Now I’ve got [...]

Gudrun update.

lördag, augusti 27th, 2011

We were on the lookout for Gudrun’s alleged kittens for quite a while when I first wrote about her here, but realized pretty soon she wasn’t a mom yet, but was going to be.Ten days ago or so she gave birth to five kittens in the forest outside, a few hours after a crazy fight [...]

Space nun.

lördag, augusti 20th, 2011

I bought this vintage dress the day before yesterday at Holmen’s marknad for 65 kronor. It’s wool & now that I’ve taken it in it is perfect for fall. Frej convinced me to buy it, I was quite sceptical at first as I didn’t really feel like sewing. Watched this Vivienne Westwood documentary while sewing [...]

Pattern update on Lily of the Valley again!

fredag, augusti 19th, 2011

I have again updated Lily of the Valley with a heap of 40s-50s knitting patterns and a few knitting magazines from the early 1950s, they’re all super lovely and I will scan some of the patterns in the books before I sell them so that I can try and knit something for myself one day [...]

onsdag, augusti 10th, 2011

Good morning! I just woke up from this nightmare, I was trolling the internet very very seriously and especially trolling livejournal. Then Igot busted and humiliated on some forum! Haha… Here are some more scanned pictures from the disposable camera.

Sushi with Rebecka.

tisdag, augusti 9th, 2011

Today, I met up with Rebecka to eat sushi & later also have some coffee. Here I am after sushi but before coffee. The huge bag from Emmaus is a sign that there is a sale there (by Järntorget) right now. Most clothes are 10 kronor, so I got a heap of good stuff! But [...]

Göteborg autumn 2010 to spring 2011.

tisdag, augusti 9th, 2011

I got an old disposable camera developed yesterday. Here are some pictures from a year ago to six months ago.
My tram stop & my tram. If I had liked Jens Lekman I could have referenced him now but I don’t so…

Åsa at Runstavsgatan. I envy her sweater, I want more animal sweaters. I now have [...]

Some flea market findings from the last few days.

tisdag, augusti 9th, 2011

I got these fantastic boot/Converse/platform hybrids from the brand RAPPERS (gotta love that!) at Heden’s flea market this Saturday. They were 40 kronor, and I get pain in my ankles from the exercise of lifting them! I just realised you can’t tell from this angle but they have a pretty high platform and are heavy.

I [...]
