Easy Baby Blanket from Lisa Lately


Great baby blanket pattern for beginners , also a handy project to do as you can just leave and pick up anytime when you're free. I used a size G 4 mm crochet hook and a baby yarn as the main colour.
This baby blanket , meant specifically for a car or a stroller is for my sister who is expecting her baby in 2 months .. So excited!
I think I started this blanket with a foundationless double crochet which means no chains... And the rest is pretty easy ! Happy crafting...

One by Erika Flory

Finally the first finished knit for the year! Although technically I started it late last year, One is a quick seamless knitted baby cardi . Pattern was very easy to understand. Knitted in one piece, it's a really good one to knit whilst watching tv. I completed this piece watching the movie " The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel". Loved the movie especially since I've never been to India. Back to the knitting, you can see that I chose a plain button for it only because I finished it late and couldn't find any fancy ones, so plain white it is! I would knit this again in a bigger size , I just need to double up the stitches i think ...I've never done this before. Anyway here is wishing you a Happy 2013!!! Happy Knitting!

Sneak peek 1


I have been wanting to knit this for as long as I can remember! I hope it will be done before the holidays where I will need it the most ! Looking at my calendar for next week and the week after that, I don't like my chances unless I don't do anything else but knit .. That will be heaven!! It's Sunday and I'm here wondering where has the weekend gone, and this was a long weekend spent at home ! Loved it!

It has been awhile..

And yes I've forgotten how to log in, my blog password , how to actually blog etc etc.. but obviously I'm not totally lost, not just yet. I've decided I'm not an Apple fan, just could not get my head around my laptop and so its been banished , out of my sight..to somewhere around the house. I should really sell it now as I don't even feel anything about it, not even sad and hate is such a strong word :-) as my late mother in law use to say! Yay time for a new one - NOT Apple, not for me!
