It has been a month since I updated my blog. Have been traveling and then generally life took over. However, I have a couple of projects to show off.
My pet project has been Owlivia, the adorable owl from Interweave Crochet summer issue.
Owlivia
I had to make her when I set my eyes on her. But then, I got the time to make her only yesterday. It takes only two hours to complete this cute project.
Then earlier I made the Zipline Shell by Linda Permann. When my daughter saw the pattern as I was browsing online, she wanted it in pink. But the pattern came in larger sizes only. So I did the math and surprised myself by getting it right and it now fits her to a T.

Another such project was the Spring Shell by Simona Merchant Dest. This is also a plus size garment and from Interweave. I had been eyeing it for long. Emboldened by my previous effort at sizing down a garment, I ventured to do my math and it turned out perfect.

That is all for this week. Hope to post my WIP on Wednesday. This goes to Tamis Amis’ FO Fridays. Do check out other FO’s here.

Thank you!
It’s so satisfying when you do all that maths and it really works
You’ve made a couple of great looking tops there, and that owl is so cute!
Thank you Laura. When the maths work, it sure boosts our confidence.

The owl is so cute. The tops look fantastic!
Thank you Susan!
I love the tops you made for your girls, very cute, as are the models
Love your chubby little owl! She’s so cute! And I’m terribly impressed with your knitting math. I have not shared your success in that department, so I’ll just have to admire your amazing skills and your cute models.
Thanks Paula!
Loving the little owly!
