Flower brooch for friend

Mbak Haryati, a friend of mine will move to Saudi Arabia this week. I really want to give her one of my handmade. I planned to make a cable bag for her, but the time is too short, for me a week is not enough to make a bag ...*sigh...*

So I make these brooches for her. She wear jilbab so I hope it will fit with the jilbab.

Selamat jalan mbak Har, mudah mudahan ditempat yang baru mendapatkan yang lebih baik, sukses selalu.

I am gonna miss you.....

Pineapple bag

Finally I can finish this bag. I plan to send the pattern for our book project, but seems need a bit correction.

I use orange cotton thread and bali blend one skein each.

Hook Tulip no 2 and a pair of wood handle - Surabaya product.

There are 3 part in this bag, bottom, pineapple and upper part.

And I put cotton fabric inside.

FO : Red Cable Sweater

Finally I finished this red sweater. I started this sweater on January 2007... fiiuuuhhh... 6 months ago...!!! Why ? well, sometimes I got bore, like when I've finished the back and front body, I was so lazy to continue to make the sleeves. Well...

I made this sweater for Aqiel, but I don't know, his size six months ago much different than today. When he wear this sweater this morning, oh my God... it's too small for him.

So I told him to give this to his brother Ahmed. And for Ahmed, it's too big. The sleeves are too long. You still growing Ahmed, that's OK...

This is my first cable knit. It's only simple cable pattern, but now I know how to do it.

OK, time to start another project......

Kue Lapis square

These simple squares are remind me of Kue Lapis (layer cake), it's a traditional sweet cake made of rice flour, because Kue Lapis usually has these colours.

I still don't have any idea what to do whit these squares, I just kinda like to make it in various combination. Would it be a bag ? or a blanket, or just a throw ? I dunno.....

Just want to share the pictures, so..enjoy..and give me some idea.....
