I think the Tilted Duster is one of my favourite knitted garments so far.  It’s in a beautiful Tomato red colour of the Cascade 220 yarn, it’s warm because it’s wool, not to mention the lovely pattern.  It’s really easy to follow and a lot of times I just knit in front of the TV [...]

Knitting sleeves is tedicious because after finishing one, there’s a second one to finish.  And knitting sleeves in round with the dpn gave me headache!  I was cheap, I just used my mom’s ancient aluminium looonnnggg needles to knit in round.  Gosh was my fingers sored!  Then I figured a way to knit in round by [...]

Tatta!!!  I am presenting my beloved top…..Sea Silk Tank Top, original pattern….is finally finished!  It’s a joy to knit with this yarn, it’s soft, light, and mmmm…..yummy.  I originally had a camisole in mind, but then it didn’t turn out right because I was too lazy to calculate  the lace pattern in order to decrease [...]

I used a different yarn compare to the wool the original pattern called for.  I was thinking short sleeves combined with a turtlenet look should be wear in the summer!  The summer net from Crystal Palace Yarn was a sale I’ve got from Knitomatic.  What a sale! (while I was looking at Knitomatic’s blog, they [...]

I had internet service problem so I was unable to log on to the internet for 5 days!  What a long and tedious period!  Those 5 days were like I was disconnected from the world.  I didn’t realize internet is part of my life!
I made slow progress to my bodice camisole made with SWTC’s Bamboo [...]

Lately I am crazy with purple colour.  I go to yarn store, I check out all the yarns with purple colour.  They just catch my eyes!  I have bought the Knitting Lingerie Style by Joan McGowan-Michael for a while and I haven’t got a chance to knit the gorgeous patterns until now.  The first one I [...]

The long dragging baby blanket is finally ready!  I started working on it probably 3 months ago.  Then I was on and off on the needles with it.  About 2 months ago I started to get serious because the gift recipient is coming to this world sooner!  She is little Erika, my girlfriend Lillian’s new born [...]

My Plumetis cardigan is done!  It’s a pleasure to be a knitting tester for Sylvie. The pattern is easy to follow, it doesn’t take much yarn to make a mid/long sleeves (less than 6 balls each of 100 meters!), it’s knitted in one piece so no sewing is required.   The important thing is the lace top [...]
