My dear and very crafty BFF, Nailah made a tote, for a friend a couple of months ago. It turned out so neat and practical, I just had to give it a shot! Her project is linked with the yarn details below 😀 The pattern used is Woven Tote by Chalia's Craft (Instagram LinkTree). You can Purchase the pattern at her Ravelry or Etsy stores. My version was made with a slightly wider base as per intended use, but otherwise follows the pattern completely. I ended up making not one.. b

These cute cuddlies are the perfect companion to a child. Use it as door/decor to add the name plate to your nursery.. Or just as a car buddy for those long road trips.

So meet Ellie the Elephant 🐘and Lila the butterfly 🦋 Ellie the Elephant - made with Nako Saten yarn .. This buddy has a soft feel and and is accessor

Lolz.. Not really… Been in action! The last few months have been crazy with custom sweaters and travel and foray into beads and wires. To wind up my pending #goal2019, I finally gathered courage to learn and experiment in the art of wire, beada and jewellery making. This opened a whole new world of possibilities which has kept me occupied and distracted when a break was needed. Here are some things I learnt over the time period that I was ‘missing in action’! Do lemme know wh

For someone who dreaded color combinations and multiple colors, I sure have come a long way 🤓. After throughly enjoying making of the previous cushion project, this one was custom-made for another dear friend. This post is to document this new project 😁. The front panels were more organized this time round and worked up pretty fast. Thanks to another wonderful blog I came across. If you have worked with crochet hexagons, you do know there are two sides with jagged edges.. A

Ruth of #BraschElegance (Ravelry) or #EveryDayYarnWorks (Instagram) has been a favorite of mine on IG for quiet some time now. I love her sense of color and patterns and her knack of turning out the perfect combinations of the two. So when a testing oppertunity opened up, for her upcoming blanket pattern, I just had to apply! And, Yes!!! Got selected 💃💃💃 The Yellow Heart Blanket pattern is a wonderful motif based knitting pattern, that has amazingly simple instructions. W

When a dear friend tagged me on a post calling for testers for Ira Rott’s upcoming pattern, I was super excited and signed up immediately. My joy was ultimate, when I heard back from her to test it! This is an amazingly cute pattern that’s a must must try for anyone who loves knitting. The pattern will soon be available at her Ira Rott – Ravelry and Ira Rott – Etsy stores (linked here). The #irarottpattern is precise and concise to help one build the project bit by bit. Her p

I seem to have fallen into the ‘Granny-trap’ 😁.. Well I do love crocheting granny squares, but it has been a long long time since I sat down to make them. They sure have a way of sneaking in, on you and taking over your mind 😉. The colors combinations, the repeated instructions and the sheer speed that you work with. It started with me testing the #blushbabyblossomblanket (pattern now for sale in her Ravelry store -linked), for @appleblossomdreams that required me to make s

Christmas has a warm place in my heart. It’s the time of joy, cheer and love. Families, friends and loved ones around. This season, almost unfailingly wants me to get creative.

After a successful tryst with silk thread and rakhis, i just had to push myself to try something. I had been putting it off for a long long time.. but here goes, my attempt crochet earrings with silk thread! The response has been overwhelming with almost selling out the initial bunch of them. So making more and loving it. Each one is made with silk embroidery threads and suitable accompaniments. Light and easy to manage. Can be custom made to your colors and style. Click on t

Its amazing what a simple doodle can inspire, sometimes! My little one’s silly doodle inspired me to try something new. To incorporate that design into a project and there started my journey into designing the motif. My little one loves tunics. What little girl wouldn’t? They r simple and easy to manage and can be worn for playtime too! So here goes, my newest #knitting pattern ‘ S With A Swirl Tunic’. The pattern is available as a paid digital download on #ravelry and #lovek

The inspiration for this pattern came from the 6 petal flower by Erin Frick I was making hair accessories and was struck by a thought of making it 2 toned. The pattern didnt allow for a 2 tone. Hence worked on similar lines and came up with these instructions. Its been a hit with the hair accessories I make, hope you like it too. Please note: the link to original pattern that served as inspiration has been linked with designer’s name, after approval. This pattern is a part of

My love for Doilies started around the beginning of 2017. I made a couple of patterns, free patterns available on the internet. This was just to add a few to my Display stall, in January. I was amazed at how addictive they can be! What is a Doily, per say? Well, am sure we all have seen them. We might know them by different names, more often than not under a vase that graced a coffee/dining table. These delicate and pretty items have existed and were widely used extensively b
