Det er underligt, at det der er lige på kanten til at være grimt og "for meget" ofte er det mest interessante.
And as something new – many have asked for an English version on my blog – now I try, although my English is not always understandable
I am now working at “The Autumn cardigan”’s second version. This time I use Kauni “Lake colours” for the leaves but still the green and yellow colours for the background. I think the colours will be ok, but very different for the 1. version. While knitting it always looks messy, but usually, when the colours are repeated, it ends up harmonic. Strange, that things that are very close to “ugly” and “too much” often are the most interesting.

Du verden så mye flott du lager! Jeg oppdaget bloggen din i dag, og du er lagt til i min Bloglinesliste. Kommer snarligen tilbake. Ønsker deg en fortsatt flott og kreativ uke:-)
Dear Ruth, thank you so much for writing in English! I TOTALLY understand your English - infinitely better than my command of the northern languages - all I can say is "tak for mad" but I'm not sure as to which language that's in ...
when will we Americans/English speakers be able to purchase the pattern for this beautiful, beautiful work of art?
tak, or danke, or thanks,

Thank you so much for the English version. You are doing very well and have nothing to worry about in the translation!
The sweater is gorgeous, by the way:)
The translation is a bonus for those of us whose first language is English, but really, the sweaters speak for themselves. They are wonderful!
Også den er gudesmuk Ruth! Du har helt ret: farvesammensætningen skal have en kant, noget der overrasker eller kræver mod - først da er det virkelig smukt/interessant.
Hvor meget af de 2 farver brugte du til din første udgave?
Mvh Britt
Hej Ruth.
Det er altså SÅ smukt!

Jeg kan godt lide farvernes modspil... tænker på den som mere maskulin ;-) Men kunne godt tænke en til mig selv ;-)
Og ps. dit engelske er fint!!!
Like everyone else I am begging you for this wonderful pattern. And you English is far, far better than my... well, anything I try to speak!
Wow! I'm so glad you're writing in English. Thanks you! I love your knitting -- so very beautiful. I'm afraid you've got me hooked
Many thanks for your english post.
Please, please, when will be able to purchase your pattern, it's so wonderfull.MAGNIFIQUE
I've been coming to your blog to see the pictures. What a lovely surprise to find that now I can read as well.
How does one get two matching sleeves with that type of yarn? Does the color gradient happen more than once? It doesn't appear that way when rolled up.
Ruth, your English is wonderful and I'm really enjoying reading your blog. Your sweaters are gorgous, I really like the new Autumn and the beautiful Silk Garden one. Really lovely!
