Crochet flower bag and butterfly hair clip.



My sister in law made a red dress with yellow and green butterflies for my daughter and her twins, so I crocheted butterfly hair clips for the girls. I made one flower shaped bag, but did not like how it turned out.

Peaches and cream ruffle skirt and crochet hat.




I was going to make a tank dress with a t-shirt material top with this skirt attached. But later on I decided to make a skirt as my daughter had none.  I think a skirt is a must in any girl's wardrobe, skirts look chic, adorable, cute, girly and....... you get the idea. Alright, I confess, I just can't help changing something in all the crochet patterns I've tried. I don't make what's actually shown in the pattern. I guess I'm a rebel. And enough of my ramblings.


I was going to make two peach rows and two cream rows, but I ran out of cream yarn and ordered some more yarn, but when it arrived instead of cream I got white, grrr. I did not want to wait any longer and finished the skirt with three rows of ruffle.

The pattern was actually for a whole dress, but I crocheted only the skirt.

Hooked to Yarn



A kind old lady taught basics of crocheting when I was just twelve. I made simple items like hair scrunchies for myself. I  stopped crocheting after 2 or 3 years as I couldn’t buy yarn. I started crocheting again after fifteen years. When I had my daughter I wanted to make beautiful things for her.  This time I watched couple of videos on YouTube to relearn.

Following are some of my finished items


My first crochet bag.

Note; Yeah.., I know my pictures are terrible and my crocheting is not any better either, but I’m a beginner, so I hope you’ll forgive me :))
