It's a ... Baby!


 
Becks refuses to know the sex of her baby beforehand, it's impossible to predict whether it's 'blue' or 'pink'.

I think this colour is safe for either.

Knitted with Alpaca.

-------------------------

UPDATE:

The baby has arrived!!! 10:15 am Friday 23rd Feb. 07. A girl!

Her name is Phoebe, yes, PHOEBE!!

Little Top -- Yes, I Said 'LITTLE'



This was knitted long long time ago.

The pattern was passed onto me from a local Doll's House Club member, I used 1 ply wool and changed the collar a bit (because I really couldn't figure it out from the pattern).

I love the 'cable' on the front. :-)

Knitted for Swap






I knitted the red mittens for TinyHaus (an artist in Seattle) to do an exciting swap. And I think it would be nice to have a matching purse, so here it is.

I'm glad to know that they've settled down well across the ocean.

Let's Knit, Shall We?


 
Yes they are just normal pins.

The needles I use to knit miniatures are no thicker than these, just much longer.
 



Flared Lace Smoke Ring



Heartstrings' pattern. I did not do as many repeats as the pattern calls for, since I prefer a 'neck warmer' thing more than a hood.

Hand Maiden Lace Silk (pure silk), Rose Garden shade (a friend's leftovers, it took me ages to rewind the yarn).

The colour looks paler in the picture than in real life.

My First Hand Carved Stamp



Carved yesterday on eraser. I do need a 'v-shaped' knife.

Given that I don't have any proper equipment, I'm quite satisfied with the result.

Sweet Something



Actually I made them years ago (with Fimo).

Still look fresh, don't they?

Crinoline Lady Tea Cozy ---- Well, Not the Prettiest one...




I can't help feeling sorry for her. Poor thing, it looks as if she could do with some make-up.

(The green ring on her arms is her muff, in case it's difficult to tell. And there are openings on both sides of her skirt for spout and tea pot handle.)

Light, soft, yet so romantic. I'm so proud to wear it.
