New passion for knitting

The great thing about learning to knit is that you don’t need a lot of supplies.

I’ve been inspired by my friend Astghik as she had knited cute slippers and the cutest hat for my 2 y.o daughter.

Slippers


I spent about an hour with my daughter doing nothing but sitting by her side to make her sleep. So i decided to spent that time knitting scratch protecting cover for  my digital camera. First i did paper prototyping fallowed by user testing 😀 And here is the final product.

camera cover

It’s been very useful and saved my camera during the long trip over europe. Unfortunately I have lost my cover somewhere in Berlin while walking around Berlin wall.
Drop me a msg if u’ve found it, thank you 🙂 Greenish navy pattern camera cover.
