Hey guys, in the hunt for easy crochet patterns I found this great site with all kind of crochet projects to do. It`s http://www.crochetspot.com/ and has an abbreviation chart too, so if you are a beginner like me it`s very helpful.
Anyways, I told myself I should start with something easy and what could be easier than a cute little crocheted bow, so I did a couple to get started:
You can find the tutorial and pattern here, I tried it out with different weights of yarn and that`s how I got the different sizes:
They are plenty of other great pattern there, you should really explore the site if you are interested in crocheting. Gotta go, I have to learn some more, I have exams coming up :|
"Diamonds are a girl's best friend" - they say, well in my case it`s not so true. You must be wondering what am I talking about?
So yesterday was my birthday and yay I got the best gift ever from my boyfriend. Of course I had to share, even though there is not so much to share yet, but there will be as soon as I get to use these beauty right here:
Guess you could rephrase to "Glue-guns are a crafty girl`s best friend". :P I also got something else really cool and crafty, but it`s not quite finished, so I`ll show you some other time.
Well if you don`t, go here to find out. If you do, than I have good news for you - I decided to enroll my fluffy friends in the shop so you can order your own! You can even choose in what colors you want them, go and check it out!
I`ve started to learn the technique of crocheting. A dear friend got me started and now I can`t stop, I must admit, it`s very addictive. And it`s not helping that you can find so many patterns and tutorials on the Internet. Hehe! The only path blocker is deciphering those crochet terms... Oh, well I`ll just have to get it together and learn them because I`ve already have my list of "Things to crochet" put together and I`m not giving up on any of them!
Here is a peak at the craft desk (recently crochet desk :P):
