During last year's holiday party at Fancy Tiger, the knitters voted Cottongrass Jumper by the Petite Knitter to be the knit along piece for 2020. I decided to try Kelbourne Woolens Scout in Mint Heather and Natural because I thought by the time this is done, it'll be spring. I knitted in Women's S. The… Continue reading Cottongrass Jumper by the Petite Knitter
I was so honored to test knit for the petite knitter's new jumper: Snøfrost. This was my first time test knit. I knitted in size XS instead of S because I desperately wanted to test knit. I was a little worry it won't fit me. It turned out fitting pretty well. I just can't gain… Continue reading Snøfrost Jumper by the petite knitter
Hello everyone. Happy 2020! It has been awhile since I updated this blog. The last few months of 2019 was quite crazy. But that didn't stopped me from knitting. I completed quite a few projects that I can't wait to share and add them to my collection. For now, I'll start with my most recently… Continue reading Wool & Honey by Andrea Mowry
I was so glad to participate the knit along hosted by Fancy Tiger Crafts. I've never done color work and steeking. This was such a great learning experience. I can't wait to go to their knit along closing party to see other versions of kals. I used the recommended yarn, Beiroa from Retrosaria. My color… Continue reading Vivarium Kal
I am not much of a wrap person, but I found this wrap design fascinating and wanted to make it. One of my co-workers wears a lot of scarves and wraps. She also wrote a recommendation for my grad school application. I thought this would be perfect for her. This wrap was designed by Debra… Continue reading Ephemeris Wrap
It has been awhile since I blogged. Not that I stopped knitting. I was so busy knitting this Rose cardigan. One lesson learned was gauging. This cardigan has turned out really big even I skipped half of the body on each quadrant. I used Primrose sock yarn (from dark to light): Big Gruesome, Landslide, Embers,… Continue reading Rose Cardigan by Andrea Mowry
My son has been really into Pocoyo. So last year's Halloween, I decided to make him a Pocoyo outfit and make myself an Elly outfit. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to make a jumpsuit, instead I just made a sweater top. This sweater was made with knitting and crochet. The sweater body and hood… Continue reading Pocoyo Elly’s Top
Designing is so hard! I'm sorry I open this post with a complain. I restarted so many times. Then once it was completed, I wasn't so satisfy with the sprinkle pink with the natural. I was hoping the natural would be more white. I started off the front with the same number of stitches as… Continue reading Triple Triple Cable
Loopy Mango did a trunk show at my local craft store back in October. They had numerous products for customers to sample. I tried on a few hats. Then I subconsciously tried on this headband and fell in love with it instantly. This headband was inconspicuous, but yet I feel like it was a perfect… Continue reading Loopy Mango Headband with Mohair So Soft
A while ago, I ordered We Are Knitters Whitney Cardigan kit. Unfortunately, I didn't like how over-sized it was. I decided to make a vest cardigan out of it instead. I'm still new to writing patterns. If you end up trying this and something doesn't look right, please don't hesitant to contact me. Pattern: Abbreviation:… Continue reading Pearl Vest (Pattern Inside)
