So my dears,
seven weeks only and it is here - the Christmas. I was going through my creations and realized that I have plenty of designs to embellish and enjoy this magical time. But do you know? It is still not enough :-)
Several years ago I frogged some of my Christmas projects. I guess, it is time to bite that sour apple, as my mother-in-law says :-), and finish them. So my goal is to finish one of them every week. What do you think, will I fulfill my goal successfully? To tell you the truth, I am really looking forward to doing it. This would be a challenge. :-)
Meanwhile, you can remember my older Christmas designs.
For some of them, I wrote the pattern, which you will find on my Etsy pattern store
Some of them are free patterns
And some of them are waiting to be written down :-)
XOXO
I sent the colorful pumpkin greetings for all fall lovers
These funny pumpkins are super easy to make. Are you curious how?
So here is a quick tutorial:
- Take needles and some scrap of yarn and make just a purl stitch on both sides. You get the rectangle, (the size is totally up to you).
- Then sew the last and first row together, sew the lower hole, fill it with fiberfill and then sew the upper hole.
- And now, my very favorite recommendation, which you know from my patterns very well: "Shape it nicely"
- Then a hook comes to the scene! Make a stem - using CHain string and 1 SlSt in every stitch from the first row. And then make some leaves (spiralsú using a CHain string with 1SC across in the next row. Shape it nicely and sew them to the pumpkin. And that's it.
Enjoy the fall 
XOXO
Hi, my dears,
how are you? Are any of your favorite projects on your hooks? I have some. This time I used Denim washed yarn by Yarnart, it is very similar to Stone washed by Scheepjes. I crocheted using both of them, and I see no differences between them.
Do you recognize them? :-)
OK, I will help you a little bit. Stone washed by Schepjes I used by crocheting my Sweet owl and Denim washed by Yarnart I used by crocheting my Patchwork pumpkin. Jump to the patterns by clicking on links, if you wish. :-)
Do you know these yarns? And do you love to work with them? Anyway, I am going to test some of the patterns I never shared and I am looking forward to doing it :-) Little by little - stitch by stitch. I am really trying to work on improving my personal skills like bringing things to the end and setting realistic goals. I don't want to wait until New Year's Eve to settle some new resolution. I would wish to be proud of myself, that I have already made a progress. :-)
So wish me a bit of luck, my dears. Oh, and write if you have anything to say. Maybe some interesting tips that have helped you :-)
I'll be looking forward to it!
XOXO
Hi, my dears,
are you feeling the spooky season in the air as much as I am?
I like that.
The smell of an Autumn morning.
The sun woke up between the clouds.
Pumpkins everywhere.
That feeling of All Hallows' Eve coming up.
The candles burning in the dark, the memories of the light of the souls of those who live beyond the rainbow bridge.
My magical forest, colored with all its colors.
My sad little hook that hasn't made a new creation with me in months.
So I broke the circle, picked a hook up, and created something ...

My Haunted house, every year I make a new one and every piece is unique ♥
