Knitting - A Little Hat & Flower

Knitting is one way of getting rid of stress if you can tolerate the swirling movement of the knitting needle. I love knitting - well love looking at all those beautiful pattern and design anyway as i had not one iota of knowledge on how to knit.

Thats will another one of those items on my agenda of things to do and master! ;)
I've registered for some fantastic website which offered free pattern and i am going to include it here, sort of like my diaries of weekly knitting pattern!
Well it will make it easier for me to search thru for it from my own blog right?
See...genius! Lol...

Jahitan Manik - 191008

Dah hampir seminggu officially 'graduated' dari Bengkel Jahitan Manik.
Ianya menyeronokkan dan menambah pengetahuan kita yang kurang sikit bab-bab menjahit manik dipakaian. Walaupun secara zahirnya memang dah pandai jahit tapi dari segi teknikalnya kurang. Cikgu yang mengajar tu pun kira sabar gak la masa mengajar kami yang sedikit slow, tapi bila dah few hours alhamdulillah bab kata Cikgu - tangan dah lembut so bila dah ke tengahari dah laju jugak la jahitannya.

Kebanyakan corak yang dibuat adalah untuk 'Edging' dan ada juga beberapa jenis 'Floral', seronoknye bukan main bila dah paham cara menjahitnya. So sekarang tengah practice menjahit manik kat baju-baju anak buah. Bila dah perfect jahitannya barulah boleh mengambil upah. Bila dah siap buat baju-baju anak buah tu nanti, gambarnya kita akan post kan disini.
