    I had to read the description twice.
    at first I uderstood he had been knitting only one hat for 3 months!
    very funny

    Thanks everyone!
    @Teenage: Haha..yeah, that was probably due to my english. I've changed it now, hopefully it's more understandable! :-)

    Dæven steike så mange luer. Jeg prøvde å lære meg å strikke for 2 år siden, men det ble med den ene kvelden, selv om jeg lærte det.
    Men en kjekk hobby tror jeg det er. Og veldig produktiv hobby :-)
    Artig bilde!

    This reminded me of my favorite book as a kid. Great picture.

    Excellent moment...this shot has a wonderful personality that matches the subject so very well!!

  14. sunclover (71 months ago | reply)

    Excellent color and composition. I love that he is looking up. This is such a fun photo. Another Fav!

  15. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    @Amelie4: Hah..ja, og dette er bare en brøkdel av luene han har strikket! Jeg får nesten lyst til å begynne selv!
    @tchemgrrl: Wow, thanks for the link! I wanna read that book! And I can see a stack of knitted hats on the front cover, I think?

    @Jerikojosh: Ah, thanks for noticing! I actually thought that myself, his hats fits his personality!
    @Sunclover: Hi! Thanks for always stopping by! I always smile when I see your icon, cause I know Ill get a lovely comment! Thanks!

    Haha.

  17. jeff lim (71 months ago | reply)

    cool, but... i dunno. I might actually vote this as a save. Without the commentary, though, u wont actually get anything looking at the photo...

    -Voted "deleteme" (by the Delete me! Group)

  18. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Ahh...almost a save! Well, I'll delete the commentary for now, and we'll see if you're right about that.. :-)
    @Krmuir: Thanks for the save!

  19. Kenny Muir (71 months ago | reply)

    Not sure where my save comment went but I meant to make one. Saveme

  20. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Haha..Thanks.

  21. ecotist (71 months ago | reply)

    Funny - but background too dirty and don't like the crop

    -Voted "deleteme2" (by the Delete me! Group)

  22. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Huh, I need to clean my livingroom walls then, I guess..

  23. Mr. Mark (71 months ago | reply)

    very cute. hunky even.

  24. backhousestudios (71 months ago | reply)

    I almost saved this, but the top crop is bothersome. I'd got with the tight crop that you started on the bottom.

    -Voted "deleteme3" (by the Delete me! Group)

  25. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Hmm.. But then you wouldn't see the whole stack of hats...which was kinda the point here.. ?

  26. Automatt (71 months ago | reply)

    It's wacky, but why all the extra jibberjabber in the frame there?

    -Voted "deleteme4" (by the Delete me! Group)

  27. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    I can't see nothing. It's probably just saliva from your jabbering mouth..

  28. drspam (71 months ago | reply)

    oh damn! jibba! jabba! i'm with automatt.

  29. shobit (71 months ago | reply)

    i'd save if it were funny

  30. Tom Q (71 months ago | reply)

    I like it. But the crop at the top is required. Definitely the best of the knitting factory set.

    -Voted "deleteme7" (by the Delete me! Group)

  31. jeff lim (71 months ago | reply)

    u think what, @Elektrofant, i think that ur act was certainly a great experiment!!! now, i'm almost beginning to put it as a "save" now... (should i??? can i???)

    and just to give u some feedback regarding the "jibber-jabber" - i'm almost ambivalent here.... But one thing though - allowing that space at the top above the hats does help to give it that "space", + "height" feeling - dont crop out too much of it at the top!!! and the off-center thing is good... Check out my suggested alternative cropping.

  32. jaudrius (71 months ago | reply)

    Bad crop. Nice idea.

    -voted as "deleteme8" (from Deleteme! group)

  33. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Yup. I see it now. You actually quite right about the crop. I probably had to post it in DM to become aware. Hmm.

  34. suffe (71 months ago | reply)

    Funny shot, funny focus.

    -Voted "deleteme9" (by the Delete me! Group)

  35. lj_scampo (71 months ago | reply)

    funny but too feeble for a saveme
    -voted as "deleteme10" (from Deleteme! group)

  36. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Thanks for good advice, everyone! I'll go and recrop!

  37. barejon (71 months ago | reply)

    Haha! Grate colours!

  38. jeff lim (71 months ago | reply)

    @Elektrofant - i assume u were replying to me here?? (instead of to jaudrius)?? (Just wanting to get some feedback on my feedback, if u dont mind...)

  39. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    @Jeff: Hehe..You're right about that, I just forgot to adress it. But the fact is, I didn't see that crop as necessary until you pointed it out! Which is great, 'cause DM is one of the groups I tend to learn the most from. So thanks, I'll go ahead and crop it and post a new version! See u around, mate!

  40. Marte S (71 months ago | reply)

    Love this! It´s just really cool! Nothing more to say

  41. Lapsklaus (71 months ago | reply)

    Thanks, Marte!!

  42. hedgiecc (70 months ago | reply)

    Hmmmm . . . you know what, I think I prefer this crop. The wonkiness of the composition complements the humour of the subject. I think it's funny and charming, and the second crop seems to lose some of these qualities.

  43. ~v.h~ [deleted] (68 months ago | reply)

    hmm... i think forget jabber but keep jibber cos it enhances the height and also the jibber space goes well with the eyes looking up... but that's jus me jabbering... watever, it's a jobber well done ;)

  44. tina_011794 (67 months ago | reply)

    This is great. I love the all the colors and how he appears to be watching them.

  45. Patrick Barber (64 months ago | reply)
