knitting

Last week I've helped to sell cards for UNICEF
as every year. My selling partner was a lady,
who loves to knit. She brought yarn to knit socks.
Watching her knitting made me wanna knit too.

I remember the lovely hats, ilikelemons has
shown on her Flickr gallery a while ago. So I
went to her blog and took her pattern to make
my own. I never finished to knit anything that
fast before - I'm so motivated ^_^

No button yet..

Yesterday I went to look for a button. Actually
I had something out of wood with asymmetrical
form in mind (I think, I've once made a bag for
my niece with such button), but I couldn't find
anything like that in town.

In the first shop I found this gorgeous MoP button,
but it's a bit too big. They don't have it smaller in
the color I want.

In the second shop I bought these leather buttons
(now I only need to find the needle in my chaos to
sew them onto the hat :P).

And of course I couldn't come out of the shop
without these..

more wool
