    About

    Making a lovey has always been something I’ve wanted to make, even before I learnt how to knit. Seeing that I’m horrible at sewing (even if my life depends on it - couldn't even do a straight line on the machine), I knew knitting one of these is the only way I could have one.

    The lovey reminds me so much of my childhood & the sweet memories spent during story time (Peter Rabbit mostly) with my late grandfather. He was my father figure as my own worked long shifts. It took nearly 5 years to properly mourn his passing, hardest during the anniversaries of his passing & his birthdays.

    I don't sleep with Lulu Sleeps of course but it’s perched on my desk - an arm’s reach whenever I miss him or need the comfort of his “presence” during tough times. He is still very much my rock today, the gentle whispers of wisdom.

    * In loving memory of Wilfred Yeo (1917 - 2012)

    Pattern : It is actually meant to be a beginner’s project (with simple increase & decrease) but after being reviewed by LK’s in-house experts, it was bummed to an intermediate level. I suspect it is only because of that 1 row of K3tog (intermediate's decrease), so don’t be afraid to give it a try.
