some stuff

ETA: The book Sensual Knits and Sensual Crochet was a favor I asked from my best friend Jennee, she used her credit card to purchase it for me (as you know I don't have a credit card)...thank you Jen!

T
hese are some of the stuff I bought when I was in Manila this May, sad to say I didn't had the chance to bought some yummies while in Hongkong, actually I was looking forward to buying high end yarns, only that we got to spend a day there the rest was spend in Macau.

I just wish I took some photos with Jennee when we were in ACE Water Spa...next year, will make sure I have my camera with me.

Here some of the items I bought in Makati - Dreams Yarn Shoppe by Lillia De Leon.. - - Thanks Tita Lilli

The cotton twist yarn from Berroco will become a scarf (don't know yet if it's a knitted one or a crocheted one.)

  1. Nice pics, Jinky! I'm amazed at the the flakes on the window.
    Yummy yarns and threads - I would like to go to Dreams store in Mkti...but its so far away.
    I also buy Monaco threads, but can't go to Divisoria. At least a store here sells it for P25. each, not bad. How much did you get it?

  2. Hi Mimi, thank you, Even the kids were excited, how they wish may snow daw sa Saudi...kids!
    price of Monaco? i think it was around 22 ata, depende sa shade, if it's variegated mas mahal. as of the Cannon nasa 25 ata..di ko na matandaan. Nakalimutan ko nga bumili ng puto mold...*sigh* next year na lang ulit.
    Thanks for dropping by. Happy Crocheting.
