Fruitful January

 I must say for me January month has been fruitful that i could actually keep up my resolution to read at least 3 books a month and i am proud of myself. I started with the books authored by Bhutanese, Monu Tamang's Chronicle of a love foretold, Kinley Wangchuk's Kadrinche beyond words, and Karma Tenzin's The barnyard murder & other stories. 

With the 3 books reading accomplishment i got to meet the authors during the bloggers meet in Thimphu and Bhutanese writers' retreat in Phuentsholing, more on it at www.passudiary.com Still waiting for the pictures of Bloggers meet from Che fountainofthoughtz.blogspot.com and Zhonba zhonbaphotography.blogspot.com

Oversize Sweater

Hello lovelies, its been a while since i blogged. With the winter season i got stuck up with many warm up projects. I am squeezing my busy time to blog for the November month about the project which have been completed in 2014 but never got to blog on it.

   When i first saw this pictures , i wanted to knit one for myself.

                          So i started with 300 stitch on circular needle knitted in round  

           For each strip it took a skein of black and red. It was very easy just knit knit knit till the desire height.
                                          The back and front were separated for arms.

       Since i have cast on 300 stitch enough for arms, i knitted straight away the border for it.

                       And the hood came up but i was not happy with it . I will have to knit more later.

                                                                             TADAH !                                

                                                         

                                                                    Bumthang
