I actually finished knitting this about one month ago but alas, my sister aka photographer weren’t around, hence the late blog post. I cast on (CO) this scarf/shawl when I was on the plane flying back to Kuala Lumpur last November. It took me more than 2 months as I haven’t been knitting much.

This is the first pair of socks that I’ve knitted for my father-in-law (FIL). I hope it fits him well. Now I can finally post this pair and the other pair that I’ve knitted for my MIL. Hopefully these will keep my feet and toes toasty warm as it’s usually pretty cold where they are at this time of the year :mrgreen: .

This shawl is made especially for my dearest Grandmother. My mum had been showing her the photos of all the shawls I’ve ever knitted and Grandmother asked her if I have any spare shawls that I don’t want so that she can have it. Silly Grandmother. Why would I give her things that I don’t want??? Of course I’ll knit her a shawl!!!! So here is that shawl I’ve knitted for her and I hope she’ll like it.
