"Epicchi's B'day"


Happy B’day, Epicchi!!!
(26th of March 2012)


This was my b’day presents for my best friend: Epicchi.
My money was tight at that times and I’ve been worried over time about what present should I got her.
Of course I always think that handknit presents are best but the island didn’t have pretty good choices of yarn to make something of.
Epicchi has a high end-like senses of style so I was confused at first.
Well, everything then comes down to my last resort-the aspect I’m strongest at: STRIPE PATTERN.
I’ll say this turn out excellent.

I’ve always adored Stripe Pattern. But if I have to choose between stripe and polka-dot, I’ll answer “you got me there”. I just can’t decide. I love them both.
But it wasn’t a question at that time for me as I’m just an intermediate knitter. I can’t generated polka-dot pattern so stripe has always been my favourite.
Knitting itself has a very wide of imagination to create. This works for stripe pattern too.
There’re billions stripe patterns we can make out of yarns. And I choose this pattern for Epicchi’s birthday. She is a fiery and self-centered type and pink or violet wouldn’t suit her at all. She loves dark blue just like I do but in the end, this’s stripe pattern I gave her.
Why?
There’s a special meaning in this pattern. I always wanted her to try to be softer. (Seriously, peoples around me are afraid of her and literally ask “why would you got along with somebody like her?). Peoples just don’t know her anyway. She has her soft sides but has troubles in expressing it.
So this marks my wish for her birthday: be softer! And if we have to make sure that messages is received, I think Pink and Violet will do great job on it.
