hi guys! sorry i haven't been posting lately. i was busy preparing for our reunion. but since it is over now i'm back to making some few more blogs. i've made some rushed booties that customers wanted to gift to friends and here are their pictures. they are for 2 month babies and 6 month old. i kinda made it bigger because babies outgrown them easily. thanks for reading. have a wonderful holiday to all.
I made this amigurumis from before. I was supposed to be Hermione and Ron of Harry Potter but their hair doesn't match exactly. It was for my niece and nephew, Marius and Sophie. They really liked it and even asked me to put some wands on them. I managed to give them one each and that is what they are holding. Hermione's hair is from a brown bag that I unravelled so it has that curly look to it.
Oct 3, 2016 Monday. Last Sunday I get to finish another knitted slouchy hat. It is in Maroon color and I casted on 110 stitches as the yarn is kinda thin even if I used the same familia labeled yarn from Tabora. I made a 1x1 ribbing, that is my first time to do that for the project. That's for 2 and a half inches then I knit 9 purl 1, for a lined effect. Got the inspiration from the bankhead hat from Bakery bears podcast but it's not exactly the same. I was hoping to ask my cousin to buy from me but hadn't got the chance to see her yet. She loves hats and it suits her well. Don't know why some people tend to suit wearing a hat while others don't. So I have another slouchy hat on the go which is in brown color. And I'm trying the same design. By the way, my model for the picture is my niece Sophie. She's cute wearing it.
So I made this slouchy hat from before using the garter stitch. This one is knitted and I was going to add some diagonal lines to
it like the other order of slouchy hat from me but decided to make it just plain. It's 10 inches in height and it has 92 stitches of cast on. It can be worn slouchy or the brim can be folded so it can be a beanie. I'm working on another hat today, maroon colored and somewhat inspired by the bankhead hat but that is still to come. I wanted to sell this hat and hopefully someone might buy it.
It's September 28, 2016, a wednesday today. Woke up rather late today but I continued making the second pieces of the 'aginaldo bags' I'm making plus the short strap for it. All in all I have 11 pieces with the same design. I found the pattern of it from Nadia of Yarnutopia on Youtube. I have been making and collecting items to sell for Christmas. I was able to make 8 pieces of hexagonal bags from before from my old projects. And I want to incorporate more designs for it. I'm planning on putting fringes after I'm finished with it. The inspiration came from an artist abroad name Jen Xerri. Hopefully I will be able to put zippers and lining on them and try to sell them online. or if I get the confidence again to sell at our garage, I will do that.
Recently I made some slouchy hats as an order from a customer. It took me atleast 3 weeks to make them as they are knitted. It is about 11 inches long in height so you can fold it by the crown and have that slouchy effect. When I got sick for a week I didn't work on it. Only after that that I get to finish it. And yesterday I already delivered it to the customer. I'm hoping that he will like them.
