Work in Progress

Hi ya all

Work in progress is to learn to crochet and knit cables. I have already made one crocheted and one knitted cover for my mobile phone in white and purple. Now I am working on another knitted cabled cozy in variegated yarn in mix of browns. All of these so far are my own patterns.

On previous post is the first white crochet cable cozy and first knitted cabled cozy in purple. Both are in my projects section in Ravelry under the name "MonikaCrochets".

Well for now I am plotting along with my second knitted cabled cozy almost done.

I would also like to mention Liat from Knitfreedom.com, she is the one teaching me to be a Knitting Superstar and the one that has taught me to knit cables, which I was scared of making, they look hard and intimidating and I found them to be easy and very likeable and enjoyable to knit and also crochet.

Please visit Liat at KnitFreedom she has many video tutorials on knitting and how to become a knitting superstar. From the basics to the complex of stitches and tips, tricks and correcting ones knitting mistakes.

I have found her to be the best teacher of knitting in both Continental and American style knitting.

For now cya soon.

  2. Hi Monika! Nice to see your blog- I found you via Liat Freedom Knits at Ravelry - so small world. I do knitting the not-continental under-my-oxter way - just the "normal" way my mother taught me and is usual in Ireland and UK and I think USA. Not sure about Australia. My Dutch In-Laws all knit under the oxter Continental style! look forward to more communiques on knitting and crochet!
