BAMBOO HOOK MAKE OVER


Sometimes work with bamboo hook not as smooth as steel.. So I try to make over it. I covered the hook with nail polish 3-4 times and let it dry for 1-2 days. After that you can see how smooth it is. And it also could make your bamboo hook looked trendy..:))
If you're boring with the colour, just take "Aceton" (nail polish cleaner). Clean up and add with another colour :)) Easy...isn't it ??

PATTERN HELPER

Sometimes read a pattern need more time to count again and again cause the text pattern is too long. This is my idea to make you easier and focus to read a pattern. If you want to move to another row just roll it down. So read a pattern more easier and correct..
Material :
Used Map or big envelope ( or light carton )
Cutter

KNITTING BOOK



Cover : Knitting book from the edge by Nicky Epstein

I really like this book cause the instruction is very clear with big picture in full colour. You can see 350 alternatif for borders with many styles like fringes, leaves, points, picots, ruffles, lace, etc.. See this book make my idea sprang out with many various projects. But I have only two hand, so I must make it one by one.... Thank you so much for this chalenging book.
