終於完成shoulder warmer, finally..I finished my shoulder warmer

















我終於打完了...拖了快三個月..好不好意思喔~~
但我是有苦衷的~~因為打完之後發現,這個作品的長度好像不夠長,所以穿起來好像小飛俠!(超傷心~~)
另外我被pompom困住,一開始上網找作法,然後看一看就因為沒有厚紙板(別怪我,英國文具很貴的)
後來好不容易用cereal的紙盒來當厚紙板,也從古董文具盒中翻出圓規
某天下午我終於做了我人生的第一顆pom pom..
但~~我覺得,那個pompom不甚滿意
所以就沒有勇氣作第二顆
就這樣..一拖再拖...昨天我想我總不能把我嘔心瀝血完成的作品丟在一旁這樣也不對
還是要把他完成看看會不會穿一穿就垂下來就不會那麼像小飛俠~~
所以..我完成了....


Finally I finished the project..It has been postponed for nearly 3 months. I feel so guilty about it. But it's not because I was lazy, Just because I wasn't satisfied after I finished it. I don't know is it because of the lenght isn't long enough, somehow, the ridge wasn't long enough to make it look smoothly lying on my shoulder!!

Besides, it is also a project with some many details. I have troubles of doin pompom.
First I thought I need cupboard to make it. But where can I get cupboard? Eventually I used Special K's box to make 2circles. But after that, I found so many different ways to make Pompom just use hands.( So frustrated..) When I made the first pompom, I didn't like it. That is also why I had no courage to make anothe r pompom to complete this project.
Anyways I finished it yesterday. I don't think it's right to set aide just because I failed some parts of this. I also hope the ridge will be longer because of gravity once I start wearing it.
穿到辦公室之後意外的得到熱烈迴響ㄟ~訂購單從一號排到五號(這樣好像也沒有很多)
不過因為別人的肯定讓我有勇氣穿出門
雖然穿了幾次小飛俠裝還是沒有垂下來(原圖真的比較垂)
不過這個有點寒意時穿真的很棒喔!!^_^
Everyone seems to like this shoulder warmer a lot in the office.
Thanks to their praise I finally have the courage to wear it more often!
Although the ridge is still not the shape I want
It's a nice stuff to have when the weather is a bit chilly!

Margaret cardigan-I 正在打的





















This is my next target...I've successfully bidded some debbie bliss alpaca silk DK for this. So excited! get 10 balls for 23.5pounds(including freight!!) I will try to do this.before Fake-A-Gamon.

這是我現在正在打的!!因為我目前的昨天標到毛線所以終於可以來打第一件小衣服喔...
可能打完這個再回去打FAKE-A-GOMON
開始打了第一個pattern,因為線很軟所以非常不好打,另外這是我第一次打日本的織圖
所以研究好久終於看懂那些斜線與圓圈圈到底是什麼意思~~
原來是要拆開來看阿~我把他們擺在一起看所以翻遍參考書都看不懂那些記號~~
還好有一天突發奇想把圖形都拆開看,寫信去問羊咩,終於得到解答
羊咩順便告訴我用別針起針..所以今天花了一整天在研究別針起針
雖然羊咩的網站有圖片但我就是很笨看不懂那些圖片...
後來還是上youtube看了provisional cast on才看懂
(這還是晃了很多地方終於發現別針起針就是provisional cast on才救了我一命)
然後開始試打..才知道原來空針就是yarn over..
也終於搞懂什麼是中上三針併一針(但說實在的...這些都沒有別針起針難...)
anyway,開始上工了!希望後面不會又是很崎嶇的道路....
