En anden byttehandel / Another swap

-Ja, når man har sat sig for ikke at köbe noget garn, må man altså finde på noget andet! Så, da Britta S udtrykte et önske om mere af det islandske slik, så sprang jeg hurtigt på den! Hun fik 1 kilo blandet islandsk slik, og da syntes hun jeg fortjente 1 kilo garn fra hendes lager til gengæld!
-Well, when you have decided that you´re not going to buy any yarn, you just have to come up with something else! So, when Britta S expressed a wish to get her hands on some more of that icelandic candy, I didn´t hesitate at all! She got 2 pounds mixed icelandic candy, and then she thought that I deserved 2 pounds of yarn from her stash in return!
-Sådan ser det ud, 1 kilo garn, udbredt på spisebordet.
-This is how it looks, 2 pounds of yarn, all spread out on the dining table.

-Lastly there was a surprise gift for Vanda Sólrún, what can it be?










-Se bare her, sikke en fin hue Britta har strikket til hende, både barn og forældre blev naturligvis superglade for huen, og ikke mindst for at Britta havde vist dem den omhu at tænke på dem når hun skulle til at sende pakke til mig. Tusen, tusen tak og mange knus, Britta!
-Look here, such a fine hat Britta had knitted for her, both child and parents were naturally crazy about the hat, and even more happy about the fact that Britta had been so sweet as to think about them when she was planning a package to me. A thousand thanks and many hugs to Britta!
