Burberry pocket

I was snoopshopping at one of the thriftstores in town the other day and they had a Burberrycoat, of course too small but I had my I phone with me and snapped a shot on the pockets

on the outside they are slanted one welt s with a button in the middle, you can see the button on this picture. On the back they look like this, the pocket is a patchpocket that you can reach from the inside too.
Today on the other hand was not a snoopshopping day it was final sale at many places and I had my salary last week and I bought my ticket for Greenland so a couple of more crowns that goes away doesn´t really matter. I got home with 3 dresses, 1 skirt and two blouses and some pamplets to get inspired by...

Winter slippers 24/7


I like to join challenges, I don´t have a tendency to follow them all way. Knitting 24/7 is a very nice book by Veronique Avery who has written a few more books and they are packet with very wearable clothes and accessories knitted in different tecniques and all looks very nice.
On Ravelry thereé a "Very Veronique" forum and this challenge came up there. The challenge is to knit 12 items from this book during this year and The Januari project is finished but is waiting for felting.
I used leftover yarn from the Na Craga sweather that of course I have not sewed together yet. 100g, 2 balls and some still left on the skeins
