Weeping Angel... Socks for mom

Holiday time is coming soon. I have leave in October. I am planning to go back to Japan to see my family.

I made this socks for my mom. She can't feel much on her right hand side of her body, hope this will keep her warm during cooler days.
I used skein Top Draw Socks in Tuscany colourway. Very muted colour again, very adulty!

Rouge Folded

I love this pattern so much, so I made another one. It took 10days to make...

I love this colour! So muted and mature. Not just red. We don't like just red. It has to be so special...


 From side, you can see the nice drape.

 "FOLDED"bit!
I can wear this every day! Thankfully all skeins matched colour nicely. So no alternate skein for this project which is a plus. Hooray!

Nadeshiko!!!

I made amineko crochet cats ages ago, some have been adopted, some lives at my parents place in JAn.
During Olympics, one of them had a transformation into Nadeshiko the Japanese women's soccor player!
Apparently this uniform came from whiskey bottle. Ahhhh, so typical!

Folded in Fig...

It's been a while since last time I blog.

I have been knitting away during Olympic. This is what I made.

Folded in Fig colour (yarn by skein merino/silk sport).

Love this colour. I hardly wear pink but this may change my whole wardrobe collection??




Very casual, but elegant. I'm knitting in another colourway already!

Gone shopping

I have a girlfriend who is moving to Hawaii. So I decided to knit something not too warm for her to wear over there. Here it is. It's called 'Gone ahopping with it'... It's an Atelier Cardigan. I used Skein Merino/silk sport Savannah for mail colour, then used cocoa colour for inside pockets aa accent. She loves it. She can use the pockets to put those coupons!

Organic on my way!

I got my eye on this lovely Organic sweater as soon as I saw. Now I have cast on. Body part just has been done!

I used skein merino/silk sport in wintertide color. How nice it comes along!! So flattering! No decrease on body, just increase after waistline, but looks skinnier. That's what I'm talking about!!!

I can't wait to finish it off!!
