Here's what I've been up to. On Victoria day weekend I went to Niagara falls. Oh, I 've had so much fun! We walked along the falls. I heard the water rumble and felt the drizzle of the falls on my face


I just love this photo, doesn't the rainbow look amazing?



The falls looked gorgeous at night because they are illuminated by coloured lights, Unfortunately all the photos came out blurry, I guess you'll just have to go see it yourself!

I also walked around the Clifton Hill and of course, tried my hand at the slots.

We, also went to the aviary called Kingdom of the Lost Birds.
I love parrots and someday, I'm going to have a parrot just like this one. I also feed the Lorikeets thir favourite snack-nectar. I highly recommend going there.


Ha, ha, I'm kinda scared of the bearded dragon!
I also went on the Ferris Wheel, , It was amazing to see everything from high up!

It was a fun weekend and I'm already planning what to do on Canada Day weekend!

Palindrome Hat

Easy, peasy project, made for my dear mom. Hope she likes it!
Pattern:http://www.cometosilver.com/patterns/palindromehat.html
Yarn:Patons SWS, two 50g balls

I love the fact that the cables are reversible, and I am planning to knit the scarf that goes along with this hat. (If only I had all the time in the world, it wouldn't be enough!)

Looks very cute, however when I tried it on, the wool was kind of itchy...I really like the colour combination though.
P.S. she does like it!

Razor cami

This is my latest creation, hot off the press!
Only took me 3 days to make. I absolutely love it, and it's just in time for the warm weather.
Pattern: http://ohmystars.net/craft/knitting/prazorcami.html
Yarn: TLC Cotton Plus, two 100 g balls


Modifications: Made it 15", and made i-cord straps, This is my first time working with i-cord as well as using three needle bind off. I also used smaller needles for the ribbing an I'am glad I did! Overall, I like how it turned out, and maybe i should make another one?
