Blue socks and flower bag




I finished simple socks with short-row heel and short-row toe. The yarn is the Margo, hand dyed yarn by Trico. Really beautiful and soft yarn. I enjoyed from the first stitch to the last stitch.



And this crocheted flower bag. The yarn is Rowan 4ply cotton. Too cute for women in her mid-thirty? Don't worry. I just wanted to know the structure of this pattern. I will make another in more bulky yarn in more chic color so that I can bring out with me. It's so pretty.

Cotton FBS finished



My cotton FBS has just finished and blocked. I was not sure if this scarf has enough size for use at first as it shrinked a lot. It turned ok after blocking and I am very glad about the result! I like the touch of the scarf - it's like gauze, very soft. FBS is absolutely pretty pattern.






I like using triangle scarf like this way rather than spreading out to show its pattern.

Bayerische sock


I started this Bayerische sock in December. It was first time to knit a sock with the pattern chart all throughout the project. Very complicated and hard to remember for me who with a short memory. I used same yarn named in the pattern in different color, so I didn't worry about the yarn at first. When I turned heel and started foot part, I suddenly started worrying the amount of rest yarn and lost motivation to finish. I left it away for a while but I decided to trust the pattern and started again and managed to let it off the needle today. Left over yarn was only a couple of yards. You can guess how i relieved. I couldn't help smiling when I put the finished sock ;-)

The pattern looks better on my leg than itself as the ribbed pattern shrinks.
I think I can enjoy second sock cause I no longer have to worry for the shortage of the yarn.
