Gorgeous sock yarn from Lisa Souza that I hope to start on sometime soon. I’m not even sure if I’ll be starting any colours from PS 2.0 because I’m still working on unfinished projects but I had to show these off. The colour is soothing and brilliant, making me wish I was on […]

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 & […]

Today was a good day…because I finally have a FO!

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!
New years […]
