Crochet Mobile Cover

Hello Readers!!

My mum recently crocheted this cute little mobile cover from some spare wool. I liked the bead combination she has used for the flap opening. She created it on her own without any pattern to follow, but she depends on her memory a lot...so no written pattern for the blog :(

Happy Crafting!!

Baby Girl Frock Parchment Pattern

Hello Readers !

 

Today I am sharing one of my old parchment project. I was newly introduced to parchment world and did this project without any guidance.

 

I I gifted it to my aunt who had her first baby in Jan 2004. She loved and till date it is proudly displayed at her place her in Pune, India.

 

 

Recently I asked aunt to click some photos for my blog. I really appreciate her efforts in sending me these pics (though she's not a computer literate)

 

Materials Used:

• Plain white vellum paper
• Dorso Colours
• Dorso Oil
• one point needle
• Embossing Pen (small and medium size)
• Card Stock for framing

I enlarged one of Martha Ospina's Baby frock pattern and inked it on Vellum paper. I did not have a diamond shape needle tool , so I used one point needle for the net effect in between. (I did not like the outcome, but was too late). I tried adding dorso effect to the frock, but think its bit overdone at some patches.

I Used dark green colour card stock for background and framed it between two glass sheets which added the grace to the final product.

Honeycomb Crochet Scarf - handmade gift

 Hello Readers!

Thank you for all the love and support you all have shown to our small business in past few months. We recently touched 5000 monthly visitors milestone and it certainly gives me the motivation to keep on taking more projects......

Today I am sharing my recent crochet project which I gifted to my friend for her 30th in 2012

I got this pattern from Red Heart website. The pattern is for crocheting 4 rows, but I chose to make a narrow width scarf to suit my friend's liking.

 It's very easy and when knitted with chunky yarn can be completed within 4 hours.
This was my first project with chunky yarn and size 10 hook and I am glad with the outcome.

My friend liked it a lot and the fact it was handmade made it really special for her!!

Happy Crafting!
