Mochilla or Wayuu bag

I enjoy making these bags because you don't have to concentrate much in increasing stitches. I saw a lady making a bag with this design and I had to try it. I like the challenge and the success in finishing it. I make an extendable belt. It is also on sale in my etsy shop. I would have liked to make a grey one but the yarn was very light grey then what I had in mind. What I have learnt in making these bags are to make wider strap and smaller holes 

Amigurumi spiders

These has to be my best amigurumi that I have done maybe so far. I made no patterns for these and as you can see they are different sizes. How I came about these spiders is I wanted to make a Halloween costume for my grandson. I wanted to attach them to a web cape. I did the cape but I store bought smaller spiders as mine were too big and heavy. So pleasd with the results I wanted to make more but our yarn colours are very limited. It is a big store but you can't find th colours that you like. there are wires in these spiders I usually try to eliminate eyes and wires so my grand kids can play with them. As you can s they are very cute

Crochet skirts

I love these skirts and not as hard to make. The lady is majovel on you tube. She is excellent in showing her knowledge. I have a shop on etsy so these will be good for twins. The white skirt is made in cotton. The blue one a mixture of half blends. It is a lovely skirt for winter.



Crochet orange dress

I had bought some orange cotton yarn and I thought it would be enough to make a dress. I liked this dress. It has a button at the back making it easy to put it on. It is from a free you tube that I used before. It is an easy dress to make. It is for a three month old baby girl. I am glad to finish the yarn but I keep buying more. Just spent $50 worth of yarn, this way, I will never run out . what an addiction hobby. If you only knew how much I loved sewing before liking crochet. Now I can't stand sewing. I think it is not possible to like two things. It is one thing at a time.

Crochet blue dress

I crocheted this dress because I had the wool and I wanted to use it as always. Two balls it needs to make this dress. It is a free pattern and not joining anywhere which is great. Simple enough not to use your brain. This is the back of the dress I wanted the slip stitch to be straight it was tricky and I'm sure there is a simple way for the learned ones. I am fairly pleased with the ends results.
