Slik hekler jeg OL luene - GRATIS oppskrift

Om du tror det er vanskelig å lage din egen OL lue,

tar du feil. 

Det er nemlig veldig enkelt og rimelig :-)

Alt du trenger er 3 nøster Baby-ull garn og en heklekrok i str. 4 eller 4,5.

Jeg fant raskt ut at en ikke trenger kjøpe Dalegarn, men fint kan kjøpe 

langt rimeligere Baby-ull garn både på REMA, RIMI, ICA, NILLE etc. 

Du kan bruke Babyull fra Sandnes Garn, Viking Babyull, Gjesdal etc.

GRATIS OPPSKRIFT på OL Lua har jeg lagt ut HER.

Det flotte med luen er at den IKKE klør og sitter godt på hodet.

Har nå selv vært på flere lange fjellturer med lua godt ned i pannen, 

og den fungerer supert :-) 

Selv med mitt lange hår, sitter den riktig godt på hodet :-) 

Er du en slik farge-freak som meg, lager du OL lua  i dine egne farger 

så den matcher klærne :-)

Den hvite luen er laget i voksen størrelse, dvs. 88 halvstaver på siste økning.

Den blå luen er laget til en gutt på 11 år. Da har jeg 84 halvstaver.

Den rosa luen er laget til jente 9 år. Da har jeg 78 halvstaver.

Tøff Krans av Piggtråd med rust på!

Jeg er bare sååå fornøyd med min nye

Tøffe Kule krans av Rusten Piggtråd!

For en tid tilbake spurte jeg min far om han hadde noe

gammel rusten piggtråd på låven.

Sorry Karin, alt har jeg levert inn på søppeldungen :-( :-(

Han hadde hatt rimelig mye gammel rusten tysk piggtråd fra 2. verdenskrig

Hva i all verden skal du med sånn gammel skit, var hans spørsmål?

Lage krans som skal henge ute på veggen, svarte jeg :-)

Du er klin gal var svaret jeg fikk!!!!

Men etter litt masing, fant han skikkelig gammel rusten tysk piggtråd

som hadde

overlevd på noen gamle utmarks gjerder.

Jippi for min pappa og her ser dere resultatet:

Rustikk krans som overlever ute på veggen i all slags storm og uvær :-)

VIKTIG!!! Bruk tykke arbeidshansker av skinn el. når du jobber med piggtråd.

Piggtråden er kun satt fast med strips øverst hvor den også er festet til veggen.

Den enkle lyslenken som er surret rundt, fant jeg på Clas Ohlsson.

Lyslenken er egentlig ment som borddekorasjon til innendørs bruk

og får strøm via batteri.

Jeg puttet batteridelen inn i en blank plastpose slik at det tåler

vann og så ligger den skjult bak pynten.

Valgte å pynte kransen enkelt med granbar og grener slik at 
piggtråden vises godt :-)

If you want the explanation in another language, just use Google Translate :-)

Håper du har fått litt inspirasjon!

Ønsker deg en flott ny uke :-) Klemmer fra
