Hubby’s Vest in Zara Wool Yarn

Posted on April 25, 2008 - Filed Under Knit, Vest | Leave a Comment

This project was started for some time but it was “abandoned” for a while when I was busy knitting for my kids. But last month, I tried to make it my first priority and get it done ASAP. I told myself not to buy any new yarns unless I’ve completed the vest first. So here [...]

I completed 2 projects which were started in February, and one of them is a multicolor knit dress in Katia Surf Print cotton yarn for my gal. She supposed to wear it on her birthday dinner, but it’s too bit for her. Thus, I asked the help from the shop to fix it for [...]

I wanted to rush a new knit wear for my boy in less than a month, but with all the traveling and various knitting project on hand, I knew that I couldn’t finish in time. Thus, I only knitted the back and the sleeves with Perla cotton yarn and 3.75mm knitting needles. I asked the [...]

A Gift For Hubby

Posted on November 24, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Vest | 3 Comments

I admit that I concentrate more on knitting for my kids and I have been ignoring hubby’s vest. But I made up my mind now and I should get him something nice as well, just like a “wan luan pai”. His birthday is in January, and hopefully I can get the vest done by done.

Firstly, I’m starting on the front part of Justin’s Mickey tee, but I didn’t snap the photo. I have to really sit down and knit as according to the diagram so that Mickey will look like Mickey! I can’t seem to find some time for that yet, but I will get it doen before his [...]

Justin’s Vest: Back Part…

Posted on July 2, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Vest | 2 Comments

 
Four more inches and the back part is done! I just got to speed up my knitting process, but it’s getting harder to knit when the kids are around. When I was knitting the other day, Isabelle messed up my yarn and got it tangled up….

 
It took me a while to untangle it and I [...]

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 [...]

Very Slow

Posted on June 11, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Ngam ngam cham cham, Vest | 2 Comments

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 [...]

Justin’s Vest

Posted on June 6, 2007 - Filed Under Knit, Vest | 2 Comments

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 [...]
