What's Keeping Me Busy

I Got Bitten by the Knitting Bug !

 

When I knit,  I like  to pull the end of the ball from the center as it keeps the ball neater.

Have you ever had problem getting the end out? I tried both sides but it just won’t budge!  This ball of yarn is very compact… I had a hard time even to put in my fingers!

In the end , I just rip out the paper and start knitting .

I combined some stitches from different projects and came up with this. Not done with it yet. I think I will add some lacy edging. What do you think?

I love this yarn. Lives up to its name…Smoothie.

For beginner knitters, I recommend  textured yarn. It’s all garter stitch here. Good practice for your knit stitch!

I love this. The yarn is so smooth and silky. It’s Razzle Textures.

Looks like seaweed, eh? It’s actually a darker shade than in this photo.

 

 

 

Psst , if you like my pink scarf, I’ll e-mail you the pattern.

  5. I do love the pink scarf, it's gorgeous, but you know what? I have no patience for knitting since I learnt to crochet, it feels like such a chore.

  9. Wow Penny, you have been bitten!, such pretty work. Sadly I don't (read can't-sob) knit, but I do love to see beautiful things created by those who can.
