What's Up?

View Comments
At last... I am done with Angie's cell purse which is very much overdue! haha!
I will be uploading the photo soon...
As usual, I just don't have much time on my hands right now.

Per my crochet, I am little by little doing the shawl I promised myself for amah, which by the way is also overdue =P

Oh well...

The Accidental Purse!

View Comments
Due to a very limited amount of time, I won't be able to write much as to how this purse came about... All I can say is that I was supposed to try out a very cute pencil case crochet pattern from the very special magazine given to me by my friend Lorie but didn't push through because of a mistake I've committed during the creation of the body... that's why I call it, The Accidental Purse!


the *plan*

So instead of the pencil case, I made it a cute small yellow-pink not the regular type purse. =p

Stitches used: Chain (Ch), Slip Stitch (Ss), Single Crochet (Sc) and Double Crochet (Dc).

Below are the photos of the finished object: *notice how the design of the cut turned out, then you'll figure out where the problem arise =D

tada!

Still, not bad at all, right?
Now I just need to figure out who to give this to...
Let me know if you'd like to have it... I'd be more than glad to give it to you! =p

Cheska's Christmas Gift to Friends...

View Comments
Last December, Cheska and I spent an overnight doing the 14 crocheted ponytail holder she gave her friends as her Christmas present. It's the same as the one I blogged about earlier.

We compared our works, our stitches, even our hooks... We really had fun crocheting together!

I do hope her friends will like her gift... After all, she specially handmade the ponytail for them.
So here are the photos taken: (too bad I wasn't able to take a photo of us together).

This is the bonnet made especially for PM even before she was born...
Made by one of my very close friends, Lorie.

The bonnet was actually made of a special soft yarn she bought from Dreams...

Photo taken on PM's week 1 & 3rd day.

To tita Lorie,
Thank you so much! I love you! 
Love, PM


"a bonnet full of love"


Love love love the bonnet & can hardly wait for the crocheted booties still made by her tita Lorie...!

December Crochet Projects

View Comments
These are just some of the little things I was able to do while I was lying down in bed resting and PM sleeping...
Just practicing some of the things I want to be able to do once I am able to stand and/or sit longer than I can actually do now, or in short, as soon as my post-op wound heals.

Anyway here they are...
Sorry for the not so nice shots -- took them while I was lying down in bed. =)

Been-a-While

View Comments
It has been weeks now since I have last updated my blog site... Not that  I have nothing to write about, I just don't have the time at the moment. Sad but true, I didn't even had the time to celebrate the holiday season!

I have a lot of things to actually write here, photos to upload of both my baby and the crochet crafts I am able to do little by little (only when PM's asleep) but I just couldn't find the time to blog and upload them. Every time I try to login, either PM all of a sudden wakes up or my wound would hurt that I am forced to just go back to bed and lie down. It's only been 3-weeks since the time I gave birth, I know I owe it to myself to let me rest more and heal... and enjoy PM.

Though I miss blogging and crocheting...
For the moment I know that I am better recuperating and taking care of my little one.

Nonetheless I promise to update this as soon as I feel a lot stronger and PM a little bigger.
