Kusha Kusha Scarf

Just a quick update: Felted this scarf very lightly last night and love it very much

This is a very simple scarf. It is the stainless steel yarn that gives it a special effect!!! It begins with using 1 strand fine merino wool with 1 strand stainless steel yarn and the latter part using two strands stainless steel yarn. The scarf is very soft & light and nice to wear. Will be getting more of the Habu stainless steel yarns or kits when I'm in Japan!!

Yarns used: Habu Fine Merino Wool A-33 2/48 brown

and Habu Wool Stainless Steel A-148 1/17.6 dark purple

Needle used: 5.0mm, 4mm & 3.5mm

Princess Capelet

Inspired by Loopy beautiful capelet but didnt have suitable yarn to start untill a “Great buddy” of mine, sent me these beautiful Rowan Cotton Tape yarns. The brooch is a b/d present from my god sister!! A Special thanks to both of you!

As you can see that my capelet colour is almost the same as this one?? haha oh yes, we started almost the same time without knowing each other’s colour for this capelet!!

The construction of this capelet is very interesting. Truly a great pattern, with vy little seamming and easy to follow instructions. I love it very much, the yarns & the brooch too!!

Tube Top from Phildar Magazine

This is a very simple project. I knitted the front and back body as according to the pattern given in Phildar Magazine.

Modification made: Instead of making the neck tie from 4 strands of yarn, I modified it as according to the pattern shown in 2007 summer Knit.1 magazine.

Yarns used: 4 balls blue colour Katia Gatsby

and 2 balls white Dalmatia cotton & rayon mixed.

I worked on 1 strand each, using 3mm needle for the neck line and ribbing band and 3.75mm for the body front and back.

This is the front view,

and the back,
