Favourite online stores

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

Rainy days…long hours…loud kids…and even more annoying adults. Knitting has been a very welcome escape for me despite the lack of time lately. I seem to spend a lot of time browsing online yarn stores. Here are two of my favourites.

This store is a new find for me, thanks to Lime & […]

Handknit Street Style

Sunday, January 21st, 2007

Lolly started a meme and a Flickr Pool of knitters proudly wearing their gorgeous handknits.

My first finished FO for 2007! Hoorah for Fetching! I had originally started this knit using RYC Cashsoft and Size 6 (4.25mm) DPNs and finished one fingerless mitten but stopped because it ended up being slightly too big. I like my gloves alot snugger, and the person I am gifting, has teeny […]

Happy 2007!

Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007

I finally got to use my present (the loveliest Canon SD600) over the New Year holiday. My brother has one of those really nice fancy digital SLR cameras but I wanted something compact and a point and shoot. So this was my first and pretty much, only choice. I love it!
