Crochet round bag
Hi this a crochet bag my sister made with my help as she doesn't crochet as a hobby like me. She knew how to make this stitch but she didn't even know the name of the stitch. We unpicked a few times and we changed the handle as you can see. She also macrame a shoulder strap so she can use it as a shoulder bag. It was her first crochet project and we got inspired from youtube. It was fun to have her around to crochet with me. We used tshirt yarn to make this bag. You can see them down below.
Crochet Poncho
I forgot how to post here lol. I haven't used this blog for awhile. This is how I came to make these ponchos. My sister saw a poncho and wanted me to try and make her one with her own choice of colours. This is not the poncho but I got carried away and done one for me another one for one of my daughter and some for my etsy shop. I liked making them, the fringe took a whole ball of yarn but you have to finish it right? They have holes but they are really warm you will feel it when you take it off. They are great to use. Here you can see a few of them.

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.
