Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!



Hello, wasn't able to post sooner due to internet connection issues...Hope you are all enjoying your holiday.
I didn't have any new crochet decor this year, so I used the photo from a previous year's post.

I don't have much crochet FOs either, and I couldn't show yet my recently finished design. But here's a new holiday-themed crochet item I made:


I found a kitchen towel with snowflakes print, nice and affordable. I used my kitchen towel topper pattern to finish it off ;)

And here's a new modeled pic of the crocheted Santa hats for my niece and grandniece:


Aren't they so cute?...My grandniece sure loves to pose :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog! Hope to be back soon to post a year-ender.

Crochet wearables

This time of the year is a bit colder here and just right to wear some light cardigans and shrugs. There are plenty of different styles in different fabrics at the RTW racks, but of course I'm always thinking about crochet cardigans and shrugs ;)
My Shells and Flowers Shrug design from a few years ago, is still wearable today. Here is one recently made for me by my crochetaholic buddy, Yolanda. She gifted me this to show her appreciation for my designs...I feel so blessed! Though it is very hard for us to see each other personally, she found a way to send it to me :)



And here's another new Shells and Flowers Shrug project shared on Ravelry by mollyfaerie: Love it!


Oh, and I've finally finished the Shapely Tunic for my SIL (though I still have to weave in ends and edge the neck...), here it is...hope she likes it!


Here's another Shapely Tunic project, this one is by Riohnna and modeled by her:
