Is been awhile I update my blog, mainly because I mess up my Garthered Cardigan AND Phiaro scarf ( found out too short when finished). My progress of knitting when rock bottom, I have no mood to knit or I keep frogging the project I work on. I start looking through my stash to find inspiration and I found 3 skein of Recycle Sari Silk I brought a year ago in Spain. I know I would not in my life time wearing it if make into scarf…is way too colorful and hairy to my taste, don’t get me wrong, I do love the color but just not on my body haha…
Last week, I brought some bag frame from Meowcraft, when it arrived I know it will be perfect for the Sari Silk. The only to minimized the screaming affect is to crochet instead of knit it, I begin to test it, and I just couldn’t stop. It only took me a few day to crochet it but the lining almost drive me up the wall, maybe is my crappy mini sewing machine, the thread keep breaking for no reason (.. sewing is just not my game). However, after insert the bag frame, I am quite please with it.
Pattern : Crayon Clutch
Yarn : Recycled Sari Silk
Yardage : 1.5 skein

lousy lining…is way too big
We took off work to Cameron Highland for a little break two week ago, the hotel is lovely but the weather are wet, froggy and cold ….actually we love it, thats what we hoping for, to get away from the heat in the city.
We managed to take a short trip to the nearby forest for a walk before the rain hit again on the next morning, and I forgot how much I love the forest..hmmm I think the very last trip I went to the forest is more then 10 years ago. I feel so calm and relax when we were in the forest, I don’t mind the leech or mosquito, but my husband is a bit freak out by that…oops, I forget to tell him wear long pants!!
