Ready to Sew Justine Skirt

July 19, 2019 conknitloo

Amy, a gal from a knitting group, was wearing this skirt one night. She told me this was a free pattern. So here I am! I bought this fabric from Joann Fabrics. I thought I would try it out on inexpensive fabric before going all out. I don't know the right word to describe this… Continue reading Ready to Sew Justine Skirt

Wiksten Shift Dress

July 3, 2019July 3, 2019 conknitloo

I have been seeing many pictures of the Wiksten Shift Dress on Instagram.  So I thought I can give it a try since it has been a while since the last time I sewn. Because I don't have much experience in sewing, I thought I would do a test run with the short version and… Continue reading Wiksten Shift Dress

Vivarium Kal

June 11, 2019June 10, 2019 conknitloo

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

Ephemeris Wrap

May 14, 2019May 14, 2019 conknitloo

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

Rose Cardigan by Andrea Mowry

April 4, 2019April 4, 2019 conknitloo

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

Pocoyo Elly’s Top

January 13, 2019January 13, 2019 conknitloo

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

Triple Triple Cable

December 25, 2018December 25, 2018 conknitloo

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 Headband with Mohair So Soft

December 9, 2018 conknitloo

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

Pearl Vest (Pattern Inside)

December 2, 2018January 10, 2019 conknitloo

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)
