Thotil - pallna - cradle

It is Visarjan time for Ganesha . I felt now Lord GANESHA must be put to sleep and hence created a cradle for him. Unfortunately I am not able to make the side bar stand by itself- any suggestions are most welcome.
So let us sing the aarathi and bid Ganesha a happy journey.
Ganapathi bappa morya
Puducha varshi loukar yaa
Ganapathi gele gavala
Chain pade na ammala

24 peg round knitting loom

With this 24 peg round knitting loom I was able to create small dolls and the Rag doll. It was easy to knit the stitches was also neat. Since it is in round I did not have to stitch the side seams.

An ariel view . This will shoe the circumference of the circle


A closer view that will show you how the pegs are placed


The gap in the peg allows you to move the yarn freely.

12 double peg daisy flower loom

12 double peg daisy flower loom is used for small projects. Basically flowers are done in this loom. As the gap - distance between the pegs are apart the knit weave does not come close/ tight. Hence when I knitted the waist band , I realised the stitches are big and they create holes between the stitches. But I loved doing on this as it is easy to wind the yarns.


A closer view. See there are huge gaps between the pegs
