Knitting books

Found some great knitting books by Nicky Epstein at the Singapore Library. I think these are not new books but they are really a great reference for starter knitter like me! The book compiles lovely patterns/stitches with all their instructions. Liked it so much that I made an order for it with Amazon.

The titles were "Knitting On the Edge" and

and "Knitting Over the Edge".

From Posie

I am so excited ! I just received the package from Posie "Rosy Little Things" - the Country Girl Clothespin Doll Kit ! Lovely stuff containing the doll pins, pin stands, head beads, assorted cloth materials, acrylic paints varnish set among other stuff including instructional notes to help me hand make 5 cute little dolls. The overseas package costs me US$38 but I cant resist it as the dolls look so adorable ! Got to get it moving after I finish my blue socks ...

Shawl inspirations

Visited one of the events by Style:Nordic at La Salle School of Design last week during the Singapore Fashion Week held in Singapore from 28 March - 6 April 2008. Was delighted to have met Monica, founder of Freja Designs at the event! Freja Designs showcases many lovely designs on shawl and jewelleries from Scandinavia of which many adore. See above simply gorgeous piece of art - a handmade shawl !
