Past months projects!

Seriously I wanted to crochet the bucket hat DaKnit gave on Feb!! Seriously I wanted!! I have no idea why it just didn’t happen! I keep doing and undoing it, either it is too tight or too loose. At one point I just did as what I wanted and this want I got! It turned out pretty well but it is tight. I have to keep wearing it, and then it will get loose a bit. I used the Viscose Plus Lilac from Ice yarn which I bought from http://yarnsonlineshop.com/. The yarn is a bit rough and soft at the same time and is suitable for hats, begs… poncho.. I am not sure about scarf as I am a bit sensitive to yarns, I feel I would not be comfortable having them around my neck or as gloves or socks..

I did finish my postponed ‘Bear in a Jiff’ project and have already presented it to the right person! I used Minlon yarns, 3 strands as I wanted it to be thick and de bear to be big… its rough alright, would not be right for a just born baby but would be fine for grown children. I still have a whole bag of soft toy stuffing which I am not sure what to do with it. I am so lazy to do another amigurumi project so soon.

This footwear is freaking comfortable!!!! I love wearing it when the night is cold!! The purple color yarn is Filatura Di Crosa, Zara yarn. It so soft but very expensive here!! I bought only one skein thinking it would be enough but I could only do one side of the footwear! Went back to the shop to buy another skein, they have no stock and I have to go to KL to buy it!!! From Ipoh!!! Man!! My luck! So I decided to use some other stash yarn I had and crocheted the other side of the footwear! This pattern I took from “105-37 crochet slippers in double thread “Alpaca”by DROPS design. It pretty easy to do and took me around 4 hours to finish both.

This purse is mine! It is very easy to be done. Took the pattern from Lion Brand Perfect Purse and the yarns is DMC..Left over of another project I did earlier.

New Arrival!

Came back from work when I found out there is a package waiting for me in the post office. I was super duper excited! Its yarns! What you expect! Even thought it was raining cats n dogs, I went to the post office just to find 3 packages waiting for me!!! Even the postmen were asking me what is in it! Lol

Came back tear open the packages to find the lovely yarns in it… although some color was not up to my expectation but the rest equaled up to it!

Now short opinion on each of the yarns…

This is known as Soft Frilly ribbon yarn. It is rough yet soft and thick. The color is bright and happy looking. I bought this because I wanted to try some other type of yarns, n this is a ribbon yarn. Not sure what I can do with it thou… thinking about doing a fast scarf for myself.

This is Misc Sale yarn. I love the color. I love looking at the color! It is beautiful! It is my favourite among the whole lot of yarns due to the color. The yarn is flat and is 100% acrylic. I think I will make myself a lacey poncho with it!

This is Demet Wool. The yarn is so soft!

This is Floss Acryl. The yarn is shiny and looks plastically! It feels a bit rough and as its acrylic and VISCOSE, I can see why it looks like it! Seriously its shiny!!

This is Simge. This yarn is seriously satisfactory in term of color and the softness! I bought this yarn before but different color. A baby blanket is on the way with that.  Its freaking soft!!!

This is Degas Cotton. The color is brilliant but the yarn is rough and thin. I think I will knit scarf with these.

This is Partner Cotton. This is the yarn I dislike the color!!! Haha… I was expecting it to be light pink but it’s a bit striking. It is soft yes, but striking! For a gal that dislikes pink, this color surely make me hate pink even more!! Haha.. I want to mix this, the Demet, Floss and Simge and make it into a Sampler Throw from Redheartyarns!
