Simple

This simple bag took me less than an hour to make! I used the Sugar'n Cream yarn. This cotton yarn comes in some beautiful summer colors too.

Crochet Necklace

I've been meaning to learn to crochet around things, especially wooden beads. It turns they are really fun and easy to make. I promise I AM working on a tutorial! This necklace can be made under an hour if you have all the supplies. I can't wait to make more. I really don't what I'll do with all of the necklaces...Sandya, do you want one? :) It's easy to refer her since she is one of my two readers...hi Harit! Thank you both for reading. I really love you.

Chevron Stripe Blanket

I am so excited about my latest blanket. I've been obsessed with chevron stripe crochet pattern. It took me really long time to get it right. When I halfway through this blanket, I noticed that i had missed a stitch and once you notice a mistake it's REALLY hard to ignore it. So of course I had to unravel most of it. And it was worth it! I absolutely love everything about this blanket.

Crochet love

I learned to crochet from my mom when I was 13(ish). I remember making a lot of random things for my family. I love the rythmic action of this beautiful craft. It actually relaxes me and makes me forget about everything that is going around me. Since last few years though, I've been seriously thinking about doing something with it. My fia (dad's sister) used to knit. She is no longer with us but my fondest memories of her are of her knitting. Every time I crochet I think about her and miss her. I wish she was around to teach me how to knit. I want to carry on her tradition and make something for all the kids in the family. Of course I can't knit her like, I mean the woman made excellent sweaters. This yellow blanket is for a very special girl named Savi. Everyone who knows her describes her as someone with sunny and cheery personality. When I was at Michaels, I saw this bright yellow yarn and my heart screamed SAVI!! Next thing I know i'm spending hour everyday making something special for this special girl. I hope she loves it as much as i do, I hope she remembers that her fufu made this specially for her because her fufu loves her more than she'll ever know.

Getting Crafty

I love weekends where laundry is as exciting as things are going to get. You know why I enjoy unexciting weekend? Because sometimes those weekends turn into this...
