A Crochet Halter for Myself

Posted on June 28, 2007 - Filed Under Crochet, Top | 7 Comments

All the while I prefer to knit for others than something for myself. I don’t look good in knit tops, and I try to avoid wearing one if possible.
However, I would like to change my perspective. So, I decided to get something for myself too. I am not going to start with a knit top […]

Some Updates…

I’ve completed about 7.5 inches of Justin’s vest, and there is still another 1.5 inches to go before I start the armhole. It’s only the back part that I’ve knitting now, and I think I still need another month to complete this vest.
 

 
As for the doll, I’ve combined the legs together and started out […]

If you are a beginner in knitting, please don’t do any projects with fine knitting needles, you will be easily discouraged!
The progress on Justin’s vest is really slow. It takes me a long time to finish an inch, and my fingers hurt also as the needles are only 2.75 mm. Hai yo, that’s why Isabelle’s […]

I bought a set of knitting needles last week, and it was really really really costly! But I had to get one as my old needles were lost. I can’t remember where I placed them, maybe I threw them away when I was moving back from JB after graduated.

I get this set because I’m serious […]

Justin’s Vest

Progress has been really slow. The kids are only getting better today, thus I managed to knit the 2″ garter for the back.

I got to get back to the handicraft shop again as I’m not sure how to increase the knits and I’m not good at reading knit diagrams. If it’s crochet, then the diagrams […]
