Assalamualaikum and good morning to everyone 🙂
I would love to introduce you with my very first book, Variasi Asas Knitting (Mengait Jarum Dua) that will be published soon by Karangkraf. There is nothing more satisfying than seeing my book is like a dream comes true <3
A thousands of thank you with lots of love to my husband for all his great support from the beginning till the end during the progress. Being my great photographer, the one who always encourage me to stand out, the one who always believe I can do more and far better than anyone else in this world ( oh yeah, that’s too much of course! lol ) Well.. no matter how, still, if not because of him, I would never have the chance to write. And not to forget, my parents who always there for me and give me all their supports! masya Allah, may Allah swt grant you all happiness and good health! Amin ya rabbal alamin.
I just hope and pray that this book will be useful for those who wants to learn to knit and love the art of yarns. I’ll be more happy to see the outcome than the book itself. May this book helps you to enhance your hand skill and perhaps, it will open a way for you to gain something more than just a hobby. Insya Allah.
In this book, I include the steps of learning the basic knitting (you can view my free lesson at www.senimengait.com), increase, decrease, making simple accessories and 8 patterns that you can try out. You can always find me at www.facebook.com/daknit if you need help with my patterns. I will be happy to guide and assist you, insya Allah.
If you buy one, do tag me at IG ya! Follow my IG at @daknit_ery <3
Happy knitting!

Assalamualaikum!
Well, really, how long I have been away from my blog yea? but still, I would like to say thank you, to you who always hop by here.
I just wanted to share this pattern. Looks complicated to knit but yet, very easy 🙂 I’ve been lingering on this pattern for quite long, not last week, not last month but since I learn to knit! and that was like 3-4 years ago. Oh Allah, why didn’t I start this at the first place? Huh! 🙂
This pattern is written by Smariek. Somehow, I feel like I want to use the same stitch pattern for my next design. It’s already inside my head. I only need to start doing it and write it down soon. Perhaps, I’ll also include it in my first coming book insya Allah 🙂
This is before blocking
After blocking! 🙂 Niceeee….
Now.. let’s have a look on its pattern!
Updated:
Saya ada buat tutorial video ringkas (dimana saya menganggap anda sudah tahu asas knitting) untuk pattern Twin Leaf yang saya kongsikan untuk KAL

Please look at the Notes at the end of the pattern before starting.
Using WW cotton yarn and US7 (4.5mm) needles, cast on 32 stitches.
Knit 4 rows border.
Row 1 : B3, K2, P10, K2, P10, K2, B3
Row 2 : B3, P2, K6, /2, YO, K1, YO, P2, YO, K1, YO, 2\, K6, P2, B3
Row 3 : B3, K2, P10, K2, P10, K2, B3
Row 4 : B3, P2, K4, /2, K1, YO, K1, YO, K1, P2, K1, YO, K1, YO, K1, 2\, K4, P2, B3
Row 5 : B3, K2, P10, K2, P10, K2, B3

Row 8 : B3, P2, /2, K3, YO, K1, YO, K3, P2, K3, YO, K1, YO, K3, 2\, P2, B3
Repeat Rows 1 through 8 three more times.
Work one more row : B3, K2, P10, K2, P10, K2, B3
Knit 4 rows border.
Bind off and weave in ends.
Notes:
B3 = 3 stitch side border of your choice (I used K3 for my border in both cloths above)
SSK = slip one stitch, slip another stitch, knit these two slipped stitches together
/2 = Right slanting (double) decrease as follows: SSK, then slip the NEXT stitch over the stitch just made by moving stitches from needle to needle. —– Viz. Slip 1 stitch. Slip another stitch. Knit these 2 (slipped) stitches together. Move this resulting stitch to the left needle. Now use the right needle to pass the NEXT stitch over it (the stitch you just moved to the left needle). Now slip the stitch back to the right needle. —– See below for further clarification & walk through if this still does not make sense.
2\ = Left slanting (double) decrease as follows: Slip 1 stitch, knit 2 stitches together, pass slipped stitch over. (This is exactly the same as the SK2TP notation I have used in my other patterns)

This is my first time encountered to these term, /2 and \2. It’s confusing at first, reading and understand won’t help much. You need to read and do it at the same time then it will make sense 🙂 trust me!
By the way,
I would like to take this opportunity to inform our lovely customers that on 1 September 2014, we are officially moving to a new store, located in Central Plaza Kota Kinabalu, 2nd Floor 🙂 Do drop by.
Sadly to say, we are no longer operate in Wisma Muis. Bye bye Muis. You will always be remembered in our heart :'( oh so sad!
Love,

First of all, the drawing is just something pop into my mind while editing the picture. hehe.. When I was trying to adjust the exposure, I saw a woman wearing this hat from a back view. So i quickly grab my -S- pen and draw it down. And yep! I like it very much 🙂 So here is the pattern I’ve been working on for the passed few days. Enjoy!

Saya kerap menerima email yang bertanyakan tentang jenis-jenis benang kait yang ada dan saya rasa sangat senang membantu mereka mendapatkan jawapan untuk soalan mereka.
Satu perkara yang sering saya tekankan ialah “Jangan Takut Untuk Mencuba”. Mencuba pelbagai jenis benang kait yang ada di pasaran merupakan salah satu cara yang paling baik untuk anda tentukan kelebihan dan kekurangan terhadap benang kait tersebut dan kesesuaiannya terhadap projek anda.
Saya sendiri amat suka mencuba pelbagai jenis benang dari yang paling mahal sehinggalah yang paling murah bagi melihat kualiti dan kelebihannya. Sememangnya setiap benang yang sudah saya cuba dan kait ini mempunyai pro dan cons masing-masing. Disini, anda perlu bijak menentukan bajet anda supaya pembaziran tidak berlaku.
Apa yang sering kali saya perhatikan ialah “”andaian”” menjadikan kita takut untuk mencuba sesuatu jenis benang kait sama ada mahal ataupun murah walaupun tidak pernah kita cuba. Bagi saya, saya tidak akan menerima “‘andaian”” selagi tidak mencubanya, bukan setakat touch and feel sahaja tetapi saya pasti akan hasilkan sebuah projek kecil ataupun besar bagi melihat hasilnya sama ada ia sesuai ataupun tidak untuk projek yang ingin saya kait.
Tahukah anda, setiap benang kait yang dihasilkan walaupun diperbuat daripada jenis fiber yang sama, sama ada ianya adalah wool, acrylic, cotton, bamboo, linen dan pelbagai lagi, hasil tekstur adalah sangat berbeza dari satu jenis ke satu jenis yang lain seperti dari jenis yang paling keras sehinggalah jenis yang paling lembut.
Setiap ketebalan dan cara pintalan benang kait tersebut juga sangat mempengaruhi hasil kait kita. Cara mengait dan teknik stitch yang digunapakai juga amat memberi kesan terhadap hasil kait dan projek. Projek yang melibatkan cable stitch dan ribbing menjadikan projek kita lebih tebal manakala projek yang dihasilkan secara lace dan loose memberikan efek lembut terhadap projek kita walau apa pun jenis benang kait yang digunakan. Selain itu, peranan ‘blocking’ amat memberikan kesan yang mendalam terhadap hasil akhir projek dimana ianya akan menjadikan projek anda ebih lumayan dan eksklusif.
Walau bagaimanapun, pilihan yang terbaik adalah bermula di tangan kita. Sama ada mahal ataupun murah sesuatu benang kait tersebut, anda perlu bijak membuat pilihan bagi mendapatkan kepuasan anda dalam menghasilkan projek kait anda. Tidak semua projek sesuai digunakan dengan benang kait yang sama disebabkan perbezaan ketebalan, berat dan pintalan mempengaruhi projek kita. Bukan kerana ia mahal ataupun murah.
Di harap artikel pendek di pagi ini dapat membantu anda sedikit sebanyak untuk membuat pilihan dalam pemilihan benang kait yang untuk sesuatu projek anda.
