Enjoying my Free Time

Good day everyone! It's a very nice day to do something cool. The sun is shining today unlike yesterday when it has been raining the whole morning. I am also having a vacant period now. For there are no current orders to process, no deadlines to meet and I'm just staying at home. It's fun when you have time to rest and to leave the life you are living for a while. I can stay away from watching TV, going out and using the computer but not with crocheting. Basically, that's what I'm doing now. I'm enjoying my free time while doing crochet.

I'm getting myself busy by making two crochet projects, the Puff Stitch and Spider Cover and Lacy Scarf.

Another Set of Baby Shoes

Hello! Sorry again for the late update but I've got something to show you anyway =)

I was into finishing an order for a week and fortunately I was able to make it yesterday. I was asked to make two pairs of baby shoes that will fit to a one-year old baby girl. After some trials and errors on achieving the right foot size, I think I have made the best baby shoes ever!

For now, I'm gonna give you the preview of my work. So, come on! Take a sneak peak on those cute baby shoes =) I'm gonna show you some photos on how did I make the shoes.

Here are the steps in making the sole. You have to make two of this per foot to have a thicker sole.

Making the second round of the sole.

On the third round.

And lastly, finishing the fourth round of the sole.

After making two soles, you are to attach both by making dc around but in backloops only.

Here's another close up shot on how to attach the soles together. So, again don't forget to make two for each foot.

Finishing the top toe. We're almost
done! The top toe is done by continuous dc around and by decreasing stitches.

Adding straps to hold the feet of the baby.

This is how the sole will look like after you finish them.

This is one of the two pairs I made. So adorable and cute! The shoes are made to fit a one-year old foot. I also made use Red Heart yarns on these.

Wanna see the pink shoes? You can check them both in my Facebook Page and view the full shot photo of these baby shoes =)

Two-Toned Green Purse

Just a few days ago, upon looking at my yarns and a lot of scrap yarns are into my box I decided to use them up for more useful things like carry on bag, purses and doilies. And yesterday, I have already finished one stuff. Now, I wanna call this one simply envelop type of purse or wrist let . Aside from bags, I also love collecting small pouches, purses and anything alike. I love color green so much! Any shades of green will do. That's why I made this purse first to satisfy myself. So take a look at my new things below.

Happy Mother's Day!

I am not the kind of person who give gifts every occasion. That's not me but when I give I make sure that it is the best I could give. Now, that I am talking about gift-giving, I think most of you are much more generous than me, so let's get this words to the point: Mother's Day is just a few days to go and I don't know if I should give my mother something or I'll just do all the household chores for her...

Like what I have said above, I think most of you are much more generous than me when it comes in gift-giving so I decided to show you something... I don't know if you can call this one adorable enough to make your mothers smile.

We all know that girls love a lot of possessions. We go gaga over bags, shoes, accessories and the likes.Well, I go crazy over bags! I love collecting different kinds of bags and purses though I don't spend much money on buying some, I'm trying to make some for me instead. And now that I know how to crochet, I'm really into making lots of bags!

As I've said above, I've got something to show you. Here is my so called Granny Hex Bag =)

Summer Beaded Bracelets

I know it's kinda late to post something about summer but I will post it anyway =)
I like collecting small stuffs like accessories though I don't like wearing them everyday. I just like having some. For some people who like accessories so much, I can tell you something adorable to wear and since it's still vacation, having something around your wrist will always make you ready for a day out or a night out.

What about summer beaded bracelets? These little somethings are so simple and easy to make.
