    About

    We can’t wait to see this sweet sassy lass again! Our last tea time together was nearly a year ago.

    We thought this little classic piece would make a lovely present for her to bring back to Doncaster. The fuss free neck warmer is perfectly functional for her travelling lifestyle. It isn't too big that it takes up space in her baggage (in fact, she could just chuck it in her handbag) & the soft colour suits her delightful nature - she’s very much like Mum, delicate yet always so jolly, excited (currently pleased with her bump year strawberries in her backyard) & filled with so much positivities.

    Nothing could ever rain in this lady’s parade I tell you, even when one of her bags never left Heathrow while the other transited in Bangkok during her last trip here. Poor dear. I would have gone completely bonkers if that were to happen to me.

    P.S : I wanted to use my breton striped shirt but he said the ascot looks much better on the plain black dress. Hmmm…

        Aww, thank you very much, Bronwyn! You know what they say... Every project is knitted with love & care but in my case, each of them appears to have their very own funny stories to tell. ;)

        Hello Liz. It isn't my pattern actually (although this project gave me better perspectives for a neck warmer I've been trying to design for some time already).

        The pattern is one of 29 other patterns from a knitting book I found in an old bookshop - the cover being a lovely knitted pair of red slippers. I saw that Amazon has it in stock.

      I have to agree that the ascot (beautiful) does show well against the black. I hope your lovely friend had a great time despite the baggage catastrophes.

        Hahahaha... My husband would be very pleased to know you've agreed with him.

        I suppose she did have a great time. We were very afraid she wouldn't dare to make another visit here after all the baggage mess she had to put up with.
