Walked into the Spring Haberbashery again after three days of bumping around for my Hari Raya holiday.
The lady boss asked me to choose the colour for my shawl.
I followed Percy's advice.
I: Black and white.
{Lady boss aka Jackie (learnt out her name after spending one whole afternoon in her shop) search around her nicely-arranged shelves to obtain two balls of cotton for me.}
Then, Jackie showed me how to knit and let me practising for one hour.
I was so slow.
Half of row for one whole hour.
After an hour, she took over and scrapped all off from my needle.
Jackie: Now, starts to do it for your shawl.
Knitting it slowly and had to refer to her occasionally.
Around 6pm, I thought it is enough for the day.
I went home and continued knitting and started watching Cantonese Series - Yummy Black Forest.
Je t'aime....
When I began knitting, my entire world is about knitting.
I eat knitting.
I sleep knitting.
I dream knitting.
I talk knitting.
{I started to knit for my boyfriend.}
{I plan to give a shawl for Donkoi on his birthday.}
I usually get different types of questions from friends around me.
Close-ended question:
[Are you sure?]
{Sure.}
*Doubtful eyes.*
Open-ended question:
[Which country are you living in, girl?]
{Malaysia.}
*Glad that you know this.*
A more specific open-ended question:
[When is he supposed to wear it in such a "warm" country?]
{He doesn't need to wear it.}
*Huh!?*
Giving gift that I like personally to the person I love is my instinct in choosing gift.
It is about the spur of joyous moment when he opens the gift.
He will have the beautiful gratitude look welling up his eyes.
A total silent moment.
The air is filled with sanguine passion.
Then, the effort is worthwhile.
Happy Birthday.
Merry Christmas.
And, Happy New Year.
Knit with my blessings to you, Kheng.
