Alison Weekend Jacket

I knitted this jacket because I fell in love with the pattern. It’s so feminine in a casual relaxing way. The bottom front parts are longer than the back and sides so they will flow elegantly when the wind blows.


It’s a great piece and I enjoyed knitting it very much.

Little Charlie Textured Knitted Jacket


This cute little jacket is knitted using Lincraft Lullaby yarn in bright primary color shade of red, blue, yellow, and green. It was so fun to knit this jacket, obviously because it’s so cute and the colour is amazing.




Available for purchase in my Madeit store.

LBC a.k.a Little Black Cardigan


For some reason, I don’t have a black cardigan. Well, I’m not a big fan of the colour black in the first place, so, that’s probably why I never wanted to buy a black cardigan.

A few months ago I came across this beautiful cardigan pattern from Garnstudio and I fell in love with it (yes, I fell in love with patterns, surprise surprise).

So, without any hesitation, I bought the recommended yarn DROPS Baby Alpaca Silk. 
When they arrived, I couldn’t believe how soft they are. As their name, it’s combination of alpaca and mulberry silk.

I had a few hiccups with the pattern. It’s probably because of the black colour. Sometimes I lost track of the pattern and forgot to make the eyelets, d’oh! There are 1 or 2 lines that are missing the eyelets.
Good thing it’s black so it’s not that obvious.

Elegant Lacey Kimono in RED


I can’t believe I haven’t posted this on my blog! This wrap around jacket was completed months ago.
See, I’ve been busy knitting, I just forgot to post it here. So, if you don’t see updates on my blog, it only means 1 thing, I’m too busy knitting.

Now, back to the main topic, I saw this pattern on Garnstudio and I really really loved it. I think it’s elegant, beautiful, and the colour is just amazing.
So, I looked up DROPSVerdi yarn and started to choose colour, when I realised, the pattern only needs 1 ball of Verdi. I thought, What?! Seriously? So I went ahead and bought 1.

When it arrives at my door, I was so shocked, it’s HUGE!

Haha, I completed the jacket in record time of 11 days. And I still have half a ball of Verdi, which is currently filing up space in my stash. I need to knit up something pronto!!

Lovely Diana Long Belted Jacket


What do you do with a bag full of beautiful beige shade of Patons Flair yarns? J
I made the right decision to knit this lovely jacket from Garnstudio.
The pattern recommends DROPS Symphony to be used.

What I love the most is the wide dramatic collar.


Patons Flair is already discontinued. I don’t know why, they’re so nice and fluffy with combination of Mohair, Wool and Nylon. I’m so lucky to cross path with this yarn.
Available for purchase in my MadeIt store.
