bedside table lamp and knitted rug

Oh look at this! A handmade knitted rug just beside your bed, this is truly a luxury. Actually we can knit this fabulous rug by ourselves. Isn’t it amazing? It is featured in my favourite knitting blog The Purl Bee. This is something I can work on sitting on a comfy sofa late at night. Made with Alpaca yarn in natural colour, it looks really cosy. Here is the pattern if you are interested.
