This project had its beginning because of a few left-over granny squares. When I saw them I immediately thought about making granny squares hat for my daughter; I came across one somewhere on Pinterest and it stuck in my head since. So, as soon as I dug out those left-over squares from a box with... Continue Reading →
Enjoying our time before the big change
This is definitely my last post before the second baby arrival and probably my last post for a while. This past weekend we enjoyed great weather and even with me feeling uncomfortable and tired we had spent some time playing together outdoors. Saturday we spent our afternoon in the nearby park: On Sunday we went... Continue Reading →
Metal cans and plastic bags don’t have to end up in trash
I've been working on this one project for sometime now. I would've done it weeks ago but I lost my interest in crocheting for a while and in addition my scissors are so dull it's really hard to use them so, many times I just would lose my patience and stop working. I need to... Continue Reading →
Getting ready for cold days
After my kind of long break I'm back to a blogosphere. That break was really really needed. It's Fall already. Where did that time go?! Geeze. It flies so fast. It's getting cold here in Cali and we are getting ready for those cold days 🙂 btw, while making those I learned the difference... Continue Reading →

Crocheting with plastic bags
Yep, it's exactly what you see! Yarn made from plastic bags. How I made it?! Easy! It's funny because every time we went shopping we would take paper bags. Now I don't bother to ask them for papers because I don't mind (and I actually want) plastic bags. They are so cool for crochet projects.... Continue Reading →
Crochet basket
Every time I come across something what seems to be easy for me to make I do not think what kind of yarn I have to use in order to get the exact final effect as on the picture in front of me. Sometimes it doesn't matter. Sometimes it does! It did matter this time.... Continue Reading →
Crochet camera strap cover
I know, I repeat myself over and over, but... I made this cover with no pattern. I would like to be more patient with writing it down as I go but I am not... . Just for those who might be interested in making it I'm going to try to explain how I made it.... Continue Reading →
Selfie Saturday with Elena
Took this photo a few weeks ago, but I thought it's good for Elena's this week theme - "Light". Picture below was taken a few days ago as well as this one. (linking up with Life-n-Reflection - Texture Twist) My last picture was taken today while taking pictures of my new crochet creation - belt... Continue Reading →
Crocheting story continues…
My new creation. A bag. Not perfect. A little bit too big, and too long. I made it without any pattern, so I can't provide you with any. I'm one of those people that if making something, more often, it's withouth the recipe... . Be honest with you I was inspired by this bag: but... Continue Reading →
