WWKIP Day

8 KL Knitters met up last Saturday at Starbucks Bangsar Village 2.
A great time was had by ALL - and many of the Starbucks staff were quite intrigued by our knitting activities.So much so they invited us to join in their launch for their latest promotions. Those of us who were game enough got some free coffee and snacks for our pains.

I am not going to say much but let the pictures do the talking.



Aw, Ee Koon and Jackie. EK is holding her first project, a scarf. Aw brought her daughters as well and the youngest modeled her first lace knit. I didn't get a pic so you need to check it out at her blog.


Helen and Sally. Helen is a very talented lady who knits marvellous projects for her daughters. Sally of course brought her Forest Path Stole which convinced me I have to re-do mine with smaller needles.




Rain and Mira concentrating hard on knitting.


No pic of me cos the only one I took has me looking like I had too much coffee. There's no pic of Hanne too, who is a talented lace stitcher. I've been drooling over Hanne's site for a while now and I am so glad to finally meet her in person.

And that silly drop stitch tank - trust me to only find out I had divided the twosides unevenly just before finishing the SECOND side - it's been frogged and being redone at the moment.


It's my third day at my new job and it has been quite a trip out of the comfort zone. But I am sure I will in the swing of things soon. The biggest side effect is that I am so sleepy so early -so my late night crafting has to go out the door until I adjust myself.

The Drop Stitch Tank from Fitted Knits.

Only one problem -I forgot to check the errata and now I have one garter stitch seam and one ribbed seam - ARRRRGGGHHH!

I am not ripping - it's only the seam- whose going to see eh??

And the other new stitching start
