Hand Dyed Wool Yarns

I bought this yarn from e-bay about three weeks ago, so after a looong wait finally its arrived. Haven't decide what i am going to do with this yarn yet, but i guest a vest or sweater is suitable since the materials is wool. Each yarn weight about 100g and each color come in three hanks. This yarn is slightly felting similar to a few yarn i bought at Daiso, but still i like the color selection. :))

love the color ;)))

What a busy Month!!

This is what happen when you got so many things to do and so little time to spend. I supposed to finish my husband raglan sweater this month and my daughter granny square. But instead of working on both project i wrote out a new 'Kufi Hat Pattern'. Well the pattern quite simple and easy and currently i'm still running a  test in Ravelry. Once its finished being tested i'm going to put it up for sale probably on June.

My Simple and easy Kufi Hat

 Now here come the busy part. I'm running a test pattern in Ravelry, got raglan sweater to knit,granny squares to crochet and i even volunteer to test other designers pattern at the same time. Phewww!! To add to the busy list last week a customer ask me to knit an adult size vest and at the same time i'm working on a new beanie pattern which i manage to wrote out only two sizes newborn and baby.  I am going to add two more sizes toddler and child but before that i need to concentrate working on  the vest.

New beanie ...pattern in the making :)

But don't be surprise if next month i add another new pattern in my thing-to-do list. To be honest i even have a flower pattern in my head and if only i can squeeze some time to write it out.

Thanks for reading everyone!!

Crossed Cable Tutorial

I notice a few crocheter having trouble with my pattern Simple Cable Beanie, especially when it came to rnd-4 (where the Crossed Cable start). So i did this tutorials and hope it can help you to understand the pattern better. :)


For the 'crossed cable' i use in the pattern is worked by chain 1, skip one stitch, making front post stitch, chain 1,  then going back and make front post stitch around skipped stitch.

Step 1 - ch1, skip first st/dc, fpdc in next stitch.

Step 2 - ch1, fpdc in previously skipped stitch

That its, one Crossed cable made. Yeay!! 

 There's another tutorial you can refer in Crochet Spot for better explanation and clearer pictures. But in that tutorials the Crossed cable are made by using 4 stitches and fptc (front post treble crochet) technique.

Happy crocheting friends !!!!

What I've been Doing Lately

While waiting for my testers to finish their testing, this is what I've been doing lately; a granny square and a shawls . The shawl pattern is been request by a friend of mine, and currently i am working on it. Even though  i'm not sure when i will finish writing the pattern, since it quite difficult compare to the beanie/hat pattern but i won't give up. I manage to write up to row-30 and i will continue to write a few more rows. 

The granny square is what i love the most, its simple and easy to do. I gonna make a few more of  this square and joined them later. Will snap a photo once its finish!! ;)

Happy crocheting friends !!

Pattern Testers Needed

I just finish wrote out my Cable Beanie pattern and need a tester. I need to ensure that my pattern are easy to understand, so currently i'm looking for at least 3 crocheter to test the pattern. This Cable Beanie are totally different with my other Simple Cable Beanie (which someone had told me its not simple enough ), and i am  not recommend it for a beginner crocheter. 

So if you are interested to be my tester, just leave me your email address or you can email me at asmalina_omar@yahoo.com . Remember you are not allowed to sell the pattern , but you can sell the finished products made from it.

Another Knitted Vest

Nih kira vest pertama yg nanny buat dgn teknik knit in round....so xder jahit2 kat bhgn badan, cuma jahit skit kat bahu, then siapkn edging utk neck and armhole. Disebabkn x pyh jahit maka cepat ler siap vest nih 2 minggu jer dah ready. Biasanya kalo buat vest smpai sebulan lebih baru boleh siap sepenuhnya. 

Part yang nanny suker masa buat vest nih kat bhgn tgh tuh.....nanny letak skit pattern2 bunga, supaya vest nih x ketara sgt ler belang2nyer hehehe. Utk vest kali nih mcm biasa la nanny guna benang dari daiso, sbb kat situ jer yg paling senang n dekat dgn rumah nanny,  guna plak lebih kurang 9 buku benang. 

That's all for today....ada lg 2 3 tempahan nanny nak kena siapkn...then nak siapkn baju anak . 

Happy knitting frenz !!!

Jalan-JalAn Cari MakaN

Sedar x sedar dah sebulan lebih nanny x posting kat blog nih....nak kater bz sesgt idak ler jugak. Rasanya otak Nanny yg berkarat nih dah buntu aper yg nk ditulis kat sini.

Hari ni nanny berada di Johor Bahru....dah 3 hari disini ...ikut husband outstation.....first time smpai sini....seronok sgt smpai rasa mcm xnak balik. Yang paling nanny suker mknan kat sini semuanya sedap dan murah. Hari pertama smpai husband bwk g mkn di Bandar Baru Uda, Restoran Angah D&C ....chicken chop kat situ mmg 'fofular' RM 5 jer......sos 'black pepper' dier pon sedap.

Second day husband bwk g jejln di Danga Bay.....cantik tempat tuh tp x ramai org.....maybe sbb bukan mlm minggu so kedai2 and taman permainan kat situ nmpak kosong jer....lepas penat merayau husband bwk lak g mkn kt satu kedai nih.....rasanya kedai nih x la popular sgt ...tp husband yg bersungguh2 nk kami g mkn saner, so nanny ikut jerla.....sampai jer sana terus husband order Kuey Teow Kungfu Seafood....sedap gak kueyteow tuh dan yg bestnyer ader byk sgt 'mussel' nih.....smpai penuh pinggan....harga dier pon berbaloi.

Malam nih pulak husband ajak g jln2 kat The Zon......x pasti ler aper yg best kat saner...nanny nih main ikut jer....yg penting dapat merayau and makanan yg sedap2 ;)......rasanya lama nanny kat sini bertambah la berat badan nanny huhu

Out now....nak gerak g jln2 lagi..
