Last week I finished some knitting projects for a wonderful woman in San Fransisco (I truly hope 'Pos Malaysia' delivers the packages swiftly and safely, but they haven't let me down yet!)... I also did a small project for our home....
A pillow...it's my first knitted pillow ever... took me some time to complete (started in Toronto...)...I am quite happy with the result... and I think I will do a few more.... Knitting is so relaxing (even in 30 degrees celcius with the ceiling fan on...), some quiet time...thinking up new plans.... or just day dreaming... so to start off the week I thought I show you some of my knitting creations... I'll leave you with this post today...I hope you enjoy the 'wish gifts' weekend read... Carina Scott of NonchalantMom just send over her list of wish gifts, have a look here...{thanks Carina and enjoy Amsterdam!}

those sweaters are so lovely and I love the "slofjes" from weekend read. knitting for babies is so addictive; i always keep a project for my son "on the needles". happy knitting!

I have just moved to KL and am an avid knitter and crafty person - though nothing as nice as you. Any tips on where to find crafty things/yarn in KL or even other knitters to meet up with? Thanks - I miss my knitting group back in Beijing
