HandMade: The Golden Crocheted Cape.

Hello there! I have finally slowed time down so that I could capture some shots of this cape I had made and wrote about it (What's On My Hook!) Third time is entirely the charm and I created this cape,very inspired by my (Inspiration List) and I am quite elated of how it came out! Since there was no pattern, it was an experimental process that truly tested my patience, but I made it through and when I make another one, I know which roads I will travel to make an even better piece. I fought the color, at first I selected a lavender color, but subsequently, decided on this golden canary color because I felt as if it was more fitting with the upcoming Autumn season. Though I kind of wish I added pockets to it, I know I can crochet up another version with that addition! Overall, it was a testing project, quite a bit really, but I did it and that makes me quite one little happy gal!

Inspiration: Ready For Fall Projects!

Hello there! As a lover of needlework we all know once the holiday fall/winter season hits, we are preparing handmade goods for the ones we cherish and adore. So the inspiration for this week, is getting a head start at creating those items. Truthfully, so that I am not in a bind, staying up super late perfecting goodies for everyone! Plus, I must admit, it leaves a bit of time so that I can crochet up a few items for myself of course! So these items reflect some personal items that I would love to make for the fall/winter times! Found all on Pinterest.com!
Crochet a striped sweater:  I cannot fight wanting a black and white striped sweater, truthfully, a striped anything! Oh, I have to make this sweater! Wait, no, I am going to make this sweater!
Crochet a cape: Oh my word. Yes, I am putting every project, I have on hold and making this right now. Okay, okay, maybe I'll wait a bit, but geez louis this crochet cape is the bee's knees! It's from superstition vintage.
Crochet a jacket: This is a wonderful chunky jacket esque item, I love the idea of it having a hood as well. I can entirely see it in multiple colors as well and adding pockets!
Crochet a dress: I must say this dress is quite inspiring, I love the color of this dress, one of my favorites for the Fall. For sure, dresses will be on the roster for my to create list!

HandMade: Crochet Pineapple Bag.

Hello there! I have finished my crochet  pineapple bag which was entirely inspired by this bag here from h&m. Usually when I try out a pattern, I use Red Heart, though I might retry this pattern using a different brand since I have a idea of how to make it. When creating the leaves, I feel I might use a different pattern for it as well, or use actual plastic leaves? I'd have to go out and experiment a bit with it! I didn't write down the pattern, I kind of played it by eye so to speak, it's one of my favorite things to do when it comes to being inspired. If anyone is interested, I was thinking of creating a tutorial, video wise, I'm definitely wanting to create a Vlog, detailing crochet love and everyday style/wear!
