Update

Busy busy at work everyday.
Nothing much is going now in my life except for the daily grind, crafting and a perpetual pining for the weekend . But i have finally started on ' my so called scarf' using 2 balls of noro silk garden, the pattern is easy to remember yet challenging. Great for night knitting after a long hard day .

Something came in the mail today that made me very happy! I was absolutely surprised at this. Unexpected, thank you Shu , you made my day !2 chic-lits and a very soft handknitted blue scarf. Just in time for the cold change in weather here.. sweet... and more books for me to read while i commute ..Keep a lookout for yours, ok !Made more earrings for my webshop over the weekend.. I absolutely adored the green and peach drop earrings, going to make another pair for myself.That's all for now..have a good week ahead :)

Who's my favourite girl ?!

SOMETHING ARRIVED IN THE MAIL!

My long awaited Blythe Doll ! I have been contemplating to own it for years... Literally years...
It is finally here.. I can't wait to take it ( sorry , it's her ) out of the box and do some photography work !

Say Hello to Pretty.. Well, she doesn't have a name yet. What should i name her ? Any suggestions?
This olive dress is bought from lepetitboutiqe, an etsy store. Hooray for handmade !
Let's enjoy a bit of sun today, shall we ?
Ooops.. You can see her pull tag peeking from behind.
Have just added some new items in my store, check it out..

Enjoy the glorious weekend :)

Instant Gratification !


An apple a day keeps the doctor away. But what do you do if your apples always get bruised in your bag when you bring it to work ??
Knit an apple jacket !
I modified the pattern a little by adding a button and knitted in smaller needles.
A quick knit that can be completed in 1 night. Useful and fun !
Name : Apple Jacket
Pattern: Inspired by Knitorama Book , here
Needles: 3 mm double points
Yarn: Jo sharp cotton in bright blue..
Use cotton so that there will not be any stray fibres on your apple.
