Finally...a FO!
My blouse is done. Finally got a finish product...yeah! But I don't quite like it. I followed the instruction for a XS, used the exact yarn mentioned but the end product look more like a size M....sigh! Why is that so? I am not that kind who can do my own measurement/calculation and cast on the stitches which I think is right for me. I prefer to follow instruction and not bother with the math and calculation. I got skeptical when I cast on the 100 over stitches, I felt something not right, how can a size XS required 100plus stitches? Then again, I am to lazy to do my math therefore I reduce the needle by 1 size down. Oh...I should have reduced the needle by 2 size down! Ok, that is very me, always said should have done this and that. I guess this is how you polished up your skill and learn from experience. Using a 4ply cotton yarn to knit this design will be perfect but I am not going to knit this again...not my style. Ok, I should wait till I grow fatter then I wear this piece...haha...just kidding.
Enough of the blouse. I cast on a new project...for myself again haha. I am knitting this capelet using Jaeger extra fine merino wool in black. Love the feel of merino wool...so soft. I am still struggling with the blanket. Can't wait to finish it then knit some nice dresses for my sweetie pie. Will not cast on another new project without finishing the blanket. Speaking of which, the scarf was left untouch after completing 1 ball of yarn...
