I had a short trip to Kota Bahru & Kuala Terengganu end of April... and this is a short report of some local food.
Today is Mother's Day! However, this wasn't my initial plan to give it as mother's day present, it was suppose to be my CNY present to my mom.
This is my first time knitting a top, a lace top. And I didn't expected it will be this difficult. I "conquered" 2 scarf, and was thinking, I should not only knit for my friend, I should knit for my family as well. Scarf isn't very practical in KL, so, I wanted to knit a top.
Went to Sg. Wang again, telling them what was in my mind, the lady boss showed me this pattern and immediately, I think this can fit my mom very well. The modal in the book was wearing white, but my mom always very colourful, so I picked this light yellow. The pattern is sleeveless and I told the lady boss, can I attached it with sleeves? And of course it isn't any problem. So, there I started, and I was talking about I started it since last December.
At the beginning, things wasn't going very well, I always made mistakes and has to re-do all over again for a lot of times until I got so frustrated, I told the lady boss, I wanted to give up. She is very kind, she gives me a lot of encouragement, and patiently taught me a lot of techniques to knit this top, one step after another until I finish this "masterpiece". Please allow me to self-praise a little because this is really one of my "mission impossible" and I DID IT!
I have not had enough money to visit the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy but my operator has given me a chance to see another leaning tower @ Teluk Intan, Perak... ta dah! East meets West... this leaning tower is a fusion of Kek Lok Si @ Penang & Pisa Tower @ Italy... hehe
