from the treasure chest

This is a very old book that somehow was keep together with my crochet and knitting stuff... really forget where it came from. Dunno what book is this as the cover all torn apart. this show how to create a flower granny square.

knitting, a love hate relationship

if comparing between knitting and crochet, i prefer knitting end product much more, especially when creating garment.Personally i felt that crochet item is just suitable for decoration and not garment.Somehow i dont knit often , the reason is just simple... i hate bringing the needle everywhere.. while for crochet what you knit is just a short and small crochet hook and a yarn to creat the masterpiece. This is my current work in progress knot project which has been started more than a months ago...if its crochet i am sure i have finished so much earlier..

yarn quest

hi all yarn lovers,

For those living in Malaysia will sure know how hard to get the good quality yarns. The only yarns you can find in normal yarn store is the typical 'benang bulu kambing' or wool that is not suitable for garment especially in our weather.I am glad that somebody has advertise the website selling high quality cotton yarns in this blog...and the prices is relatively cheaper compare to other yarn stores that sell high quality yarns can offer. In penang i found one at queensbay. The price there is almost double the price cottonhouse store can offer... great yeah? but know something at cottonstore if we buy in bulk ( means 20 and above ) we can get 25% discount which is Wowww!! great. but i dont need 20 yarns at a time..the most i need maybe only 4?

so gals ( n guys) if we all sum our orders together and exceed 20 yarns we can enjoy the wholesale price. I can accumulate the order and order it one time for you all. Then, when i receive the yarns i will ditribute to all of you. how about that?

so what you need to do is :

1. browse this website : http://www.cottonhousestore.com/and look for your favourite yarns. get the code or copy the link. Both will do

2. come back here and email me your yarn selection with your name + address

dont forget to put the quantity

3. Wait until the consolidate order reach 20 skeins and Make your payment. I will send you my bank account to make payment

4. Done. your yarn will be deliver to your door steps.

delivery cost and repacking charge is 1.50/skein. so let say:

1. you bought 6 yarn from the store at the price of RM15

2. After discount 25% the price is RM11.25

3. but i need to open the yarn package and send it one by one to you all. so i charge RM1.50.

4. so total you have to pay for a RM15 yarn is RM 12.75. Which means you save rm 2.25/ skein.

5. you save a total of 6X1.25= RM 13.5. you can even buy another high quality yarn with that price

which is a big deal rite...so think about it and let me know....
