This is me, the day before and yesterday.
*MC stands for medical certificate but seriously in Singapore, when anyone goes sick, they will say that they are on MC, not medical leave. Beats me!
Knitting and crochet in Singapore? Definitely possible...I am a Singapore knitter and crocheter!
This is me, the day before and yesterday.
What else did I do?
Watch listing again. After this will be a break for a month or so as DH will be away in Australia for training. He leaves on Friday. I rely on him to provide watch descriptions while I am just the photographer, touchup artist, listing clerk etc....you get the picture.
In case you think I am on a tight budget, I am. Since the apartment is coming, there is all the renovation, agent commission, furniture and appliances purchases that we need to consider. It's all $$$.
But I am looking forward to spending this Saturday noon for a good time with the knitting group!
Not sure if this is me but seriously, I do like to have unique/classic designs. Even if it means knitting on 7 stitches to an inch!
Back to work....and I still have to work tomorrow (gasp! a Saturday!) urgh!
Now what's the problem, you might say?
The problem is: my cast on that looks decent is the long tail cast on which comes automatically with a purl row. So when you continue to work 2 purl rows, it creates a tiny ridge. A tiny but nevertheless, irritating ridge. THAT was what's eating me up!And so later, I had an ah ha moment and decided that I should go cast on, knit one row with A, knit 2 rows with B, knit 2 rows with A and continue on, that's solved. (So happy, clap, clap!)I have a WIP to show (using the new Clover Bamboo needles) but anyway, it's now ripped. The end gauge looks a little too loose for my liking. I have started it again, with a sleeve.
