Introducing “Knitting by Coco”

Coco tells her story and models her hand-knit scarfs.

Coco’s story in her own words:

When I was 19, I learned how to knit wool pants to show my boyfriend how much I cared about him. That’s when I started knitting. After I finished one pair of pants, I just couldn’t stop knitting another and then another one. In the end, I amazingly realized that knitting not only represented my love, but also relaxed me and brought me an incredible sense of satisfaction. Life is filled with miracles.

Coco’s first scarf was knit in a bamboo blend yarn that is soft and has a slight sheen.

After many years, I met a handsome Canadian man when I was in China. Instead of knitting pants for the lucky guy, I chose to marry him. Therefore, I moved to Canada and settled down in Vancouver.

Coco is modelling one of her hand-knit scarfs finished with an i-cord edge.

Fortunately, I met a great lady who tutored me to improve my English in this lovely city. A few years later, she became a very important friend in my life. She decided to crochet hats as her new hobby, and I started modelling them. Her wonderful crocheting inspired me to take up knitting again, so now I am knee-deep in knitting scarfs.

Coco took on a challenge with this pattern for a tapered scarf.
Another scarf in progress.
