The Evening Purse

-
I’ve been thinking of crocheting a bag for a while, since I saw a bag pattern on the free crochet patterns site. I wanted to make a small bag to hold essentials (purse, keys, phone, etc) that wouldn’t be too bulky for an evening outing.

 
A red crochet Evening Purse with flowers on the flap. Well, the flap of the bag was an interesting challenge ;)...


 
I used a small piece of gorgeous black satin for the lining. The strap I made is small with rows of single and double crochet stitches, crocheted tightly for strength.

I’m really pleased with how well it turned out and yes, I made another similar one with slight changes...


 
 
 
Perfect for gift-giving.
 
 
 
Colourful flowers...my favourite! This long strappy bag is hands-free, ideal for kids and great for everyday use.
 
 
I'd love to hear from you, if you'd like to get in touch!

CROCHET LAMPSHADE COVER

I had an old  broken  lampshade sitting around  unused  in my house for many years. Y don’t I give a new look to my ugly old lampshade??? Well… there's  nothing better than adding an art of crochet to it! It mostly involved  crocheting  the whole lampshade cover and  gluing  it above the old shade. Added a few tiny granny squares below for classy look. Even the rod is glued  and encircled with long basic crochet chains. Isn't  gorgeous?

Girls Hat

Hats are adorable for the kids to wear during the fall or winter months. I’ve been wanting to crochet a hat again for awhile, so I played around and ended up making this cute hat for my niece. I’m still working up the sweater matching to this, but I just had to share this girly hat asap! So lovely, and best of all, it's so easy and can be adapted to a range of sizes by changing hook size and yarn weight. The colour of the hat seen in the picture is different from what I made...well, I actually made an onion pink hat...poor picture quality I know ;) And lastly, Flower! a must in most of my crochet items...          I'd love to hear from you, if you'd like to get in touch!
