Arwen's Polkadot Tiered Dress


Last Saturday, we're supposed to attend Danial and Arwen's aunt's engagement. The theme was turqoise. Unfortunately, both my kids were down with coughs and flu. Arwen was running a mild fever even. Therefore, only Azrai went to represent the rest of the family.

Staying cooped up at home doesn't stop my little diva to dress up. Any little girl loves dressing up. I took her to the nearby park for a quick photo shoot session. You can never tell that she is having a fever from the pictures can you?

We forgot to take the shrug along when we were at the park so I took some last minute pictures using our front door as the back drop. I made the shrug a few weeks earlier. A simple lace pattern that I took from one of the magazines. I used Knitpick's Worsted cotton yarn in Sky and used up 3 balls of yarn.

Arwen simply loves her dress. Makes her feel so grown up. There'll be more full length dress for Arwen in the near future...

A Little Update: Dewi and her Shrug

I finally get to meet an old friend from primary school; Noornina Mohamed Saad when she dropped by last thursday to collect her daughter’s shrug. We’ve not met since we’re 11, after my Penilaian Darjah 5 when I had to move to Kuching, following my dad’s posting to the airforce base there.

The meeting was quite brief as Nina just got back from work and has her youngest son waiting in the car. With goods changing hands, we bid farewell and hope we could meet up again and catch up. I asked Nina to send me pictures of Dewi when she tries on her new shrug.

Nina kept her words and tagged me in her photos on Facebook. I took the liberty to digitally enhance the photo. My heart swelled with pride to see how gorgeous Dewi look modelling the shrug. It fits Dewi well with a lot of room to grow in. I hope she gets a good wear from it. Thank you Nina for giving me the chance to knit for your pretty daughter.

All Casted Off And Ready To Wear

The girl’s shrug is now done. Now I have an excuse to go meet an old friend from primary school to hand this to her for her daughter :)
