Floral Purse & one more ongoing project

Assalamualaikum & good morning every1 :)

Just to share my new completed crochet floral purse...time required is 2 hours for beginner (as for me) and possibly can be done within 1 hour inshaAllah... (expert in the future)

end product...but without button & additional flowers (smaller)

in the making...2 hours before (date started: 12/8/11)

Atie sgt happy semasa menyiapkan mini project ni sbb simple & menarik tp not enough happy as i'm still can't decide which button suppliers (even tho' there are few suppliers' blog i've followed) i would choose & what kind/size of buttons should be used that fit through all of my crochet items... thus, this purse is not considered done yet until i put button on it... still need few time & reasonable consideration in choosing suitable button suppliers...

Ini pula projek yg sedang disiapkan...started earlier than the floral purse but gonna take a longer time... here is my Swishy Scarf:

date started: 11/8/11

kawan2 masih ingat x entry Atie sblm ni ttg parcel yg Atie duk tggu2, order dari Barnes & Noble (BN.com) few weeks before? yes, the parcel is here..sbnrnya dh smpai 3/8/11 tp posmen x larat nk bawak parcel tu atas motor sia so terpaksa la Atie pi ambil sendiri kt Pej Pos Pengkalan Chepa pada 4/8/2011...mana tak beratnya, ada 9 buah buku crochet dlm tu..lgpun parcel dr oversea ni posmen x berani nk bawak sana-sini jadi better penerimanya ambil sendiri, tu yg posmen bgtau Atie la masa Atie pi ambil tu...alhamdulillah, walaupun dh diperiksa pihak kastam, tapi semua buku2 tu smpai dlm keadaan baik..

so excited to see those books..

9 crochet books altogether...worth RM (better not to say) hehe

Assalamualaikum everyone :) cane keadaan semua time puasa ni? harapnya byk2 bersabar & menikmati hikmah berpuasa ni... dlm keletihan berpuasa, Atie kuatkan semangat utk menyiapkan my first Baby Cuddle Cocoon... Atie mula buat cocoon ni pada 31/7/11 lepas & siap mlm semalam (2/8/11)...walaupun belum siapkan beberapa set yg lain, tp dh berjaya buat coccoon & baby hat..pattern ni utk new born baby (0 - 3 months), panjangnya lbh krg 15 inch.

progress on 1/8/11 - base cocoon

yarn yg digunakan...almost 5 yarns guna utk buat cocoon ni sbb Atie double the thread

in progress...

Assalamualaikum...
dropping by to my own blog just to share my current mini project :) for the moment the project is for my own personal use...
I made crochet coffee mug cosy..i made it small, just for testing the new yarn...i still didn't sew the button to the cosy as i made this late at night (last night, 29/7/11). Next time i'll attach the pic of completed mug cosy (i'll add up a new yarn on top of current yarn to make it the same size as the mug, and of course with the button up...inshaAllah)

..ini pula my current project, using red Bali cotton yarn...i'll make it surprise what it will turn too once it's finished hehhe...

Oh..and guess what..i bought this book last night @ Syarikat Muda Osman, TESCO KB..sgtlah happy sbb baru 2 hari lepas i browse the author's blog http://pinkyfrogshop.blogspot.com/search/label/Crochet%20Books and find out about this crochet book...just can't wait its 2nd edition =) semua ni menambahkan lagi semangat Atie utk terus mencuba new patterns & get ready for my future plan..i think it will come to reality so sooooonnn...ameen Ya Rabb!!

Weekly updates....
