My First Knitted Handphone Pouch

Yesterday, i finally finish my first knitted pouch!!! Few months back, i attended a workshop by Betsy, a crafter who has her online shop and blog. Click on the link for her online shop and blog.

Knitting was Greek to me. Betsy was very patient in teaching me the knitting skills. In my first lesson, i fumbled alot but Betsy helped me. I didnt went to my 2nd lesson until yesterday. I was @ Betsy's Studio for 2.5 hours to complete my handphone pouch. Betsy was so willingly to share her knitting skills to me.

There are still some yarns left, so i decided to do a coin pouch using the same skills that i learned in making of the HP pouch. I also told Betsy that i wish to do another project which is also @ a cost and she can quote you if you wish to have project/workshop with her. This project was something for Cayden as his birthday is in Aug 09. I will reveal when times to come.

Some of you may think that it is expensive to attend workshop/ do project like this as there are always free courses available @ shops that sells yarns.

However, @ those shops, they dont teach you how to read the patterns, the different stitches, etc.. Instead they just tell you what to do and end of the day, you get the final product but are you able to reproduce another one?? NO!!!

So attending workshops/ do project, will help you to learn the skills properly and able to know how to read patterns. It is a knowledge and you are able to reproduce it @ your own. Isn't better this way.

For those who wish to learn knitting or crochet, do visit betsy website/blog to check it out.

I will upload my pouch soon!!!

Craft Learning..

A friend of mine, Jullie, is a crafting person. She likes to do tatting, crocheting and baking too..Early of the year, i tried to pick up crocheting but i am a left hander.. so it is not easy for her to teach me but she did managed to teach me the basic skills.. I tried for a while and my fingers are in pain as i pull too hard on the threads.. It has be quite a while till recently, my sister also trying out so i pick it out again.. Wish to learn the basic and try to make something for Cayden for his 1st birthday which is 8 months later so i am going to work on it.. If i cant self learn, maybe i should attend workshops..
