Something for the Kids
Posted on July 28, 2007 - Filed Under Doll, Knit, Crochet, Top | 2 Comments
I’m still working on Isabelle’s doll. I’m knitting the dress and I just have to join the arms onto the body.
Got to join the arms.
I’m knitting a policeman for Justin too, but I haven’t taken any picture of it. I will update about the toy again next time, when I have completed the legs. […]
Progress on My Halter
Posted on July 28, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Crochet, Top | 2 Comments
It is more than 70% done and I have only been crocheting and knitting for less than 2 weeks! Not to mention, I was so busy with blogging, kids, and just being plain lazy, but I managed to get that much done during this period of time. If I was hardworking, it would be completed […]
Read More..>>Halter Top with Knitting Now
Posted on July 21, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Crochet, Top | Leave a Comment
I’ve completed the 8 and a half inches of crochet, and I love the pattern. Now, I’m working on the top part with knitting. Knit is more stretchable and it covers up better too. I don’t have to have any nose bleed incident happen, especially by strangers when I’m putting this halter top on later. […]

I’ve decided to be selfish and crochet my halter first. I still have a lot of projects pending, but I think I need to get something for myself this time. When I’m free, I will still be knitting the doll, or other knitting projects. But my first priority now is the sexy purple halter.
It is […]
Show off Time!

I let my kids put on the knitting dress and tee that I made for them for a wedding dinner last night. It felt so good that they were wearing something that mommy made especially for them. Justin was very happy to see the tee, and he even posed nicely for a shot!
Isabelle had to […]
Read More..>>70% Completed
Posted on July 11, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Tee | 2 Comments
I’ve completed 70% of the front part. I still have a sleeve to go, and then, I will be able to join all of them together. The intarsia is really complicated as I can’t follow the diagram exactly. I’m using 2.75 mm knitting needle, and I have to enlarge the ratio of the diagram to […]

I was rushing like mad. One of the sleeves is ready, and I’m working on the other side. I think I can get this done tonight and proceed to the front part. I will see how much I can go with it and hopefully, everything will be ready in time.

The lady from the handicraft shop helped me to stuff the cotton in the semi-completed doll this afternoon. Now, I can really see the shape of the doll, and it doesn’t look like Ginsheng anymore!
I have to put this project aside first as I am rushing on Justin’s tee. But when my girl saw this […]
From Vest to Tee
Posted on July 4, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Tee | Leave a Comment
After some consideration, and the practicability of a vest vs a baby tee, I’ve decided to knit a tee for Justin instead of the original vest with a hood.
Justin doesn’t like to wear anything with a hook now, especially if we are going out and he has to sit in a car seat. The […]

I was upgrading my laptop. Since I couldn’t sleep yet, I might as well knit. Isabelle’s ballerina doll is almost done. I just have to knit the arms and dress and add in the details. Here’s the doll, completed to the head part already.
It doesn’t look like a doll yet, and I think it looks […]
