Little D's Bicycle

Since her second birthday we have been playing with the idea of buying a bicycle for Little D. We went to a few shops to see what type of cycle would be the best for her, Though tricycles looked good, somehow I was not completely happy about the idea. After visiting about 10 shops and seeing more than 25 bicycles and feeling all confused we finally came up with the idea of buying it online. We bought our Little D's first cycle via Paytm. The cycle reached us in good condition.



The cycle does looks beautiful and Little D loves it too. She has not been able to ride it yet as we are yet to fix the support wheels.

Though the deal was good and everything went fine with the delivery, The cycle came dismantled in a box packing. Meaning we had to fix it on our own, no manual was given. However Hubby Dear was able to do it with some trial and error. For the support wheels we do not have the right tools needed to fix them. Will be taking the cycle to a cycle shop to get the support wheels fixed. Only after that Little D will be able to ride it (sigh).

A Sweater Ta-dah

In August I had started working on Little D’s sweater. I had decided to make her the Harvest cardigan, pattern from tincanknit blog. Though the pattern is simple and well explained I did got stuck at some points when it was about picking up the stitches and the provisional cast on. I referred to some online tutorials and Hurray! I was ready to go. 




Little D's sweater. She has worn it for a couple of times and it fits her just fine. It is little loose at the waist but looks good on her. And the color also suits her. 




Elder D's sweater. I finished it just a few days ago. When I started it I was not sure how well I will be able to make it. However it turned out to be fabulous. It fits her perfectly. 


Both the sweater in their full glory. They are just as I expected.

New Look New Features

For the past few months I have been playing with the idea of starting to blog once again. But when I looked at my blog the first thing that came to my mind was that it needed a new look. 

And here it is, I present to you my renovated blog Crochet-Knit-N-Me. And yes I have not just changed its design but have also given it a new name thinking about the things I want to write about. 

Ofcourse I am going to write a lot about crocheting and knitting, you will also come across some of my random ramblings, stories or some technical stuff over here. 

My new year resolution is to maintain this space, create more things and take good care of my family. 

Happy New Year 

Keep reading, Lots of Love
