Converse Shoes

As you know I love to crochet and give majority to charity, especially for the gorgeous little premies at PMH here in Perth via Miracle Babies. Well when browsing Ravelry (which I absolutely love, more than Pinterest lol) I stumbled across these gorgeous Converse Shoes so had to make a pair :) My teenage DD loves and lives in her Converse Shoes, wonder if she would wear a cute crocheted pair? Think they would also make great key-chains if I can make them smaller :)

Very cute hey!

I belong to a number of crochet groups on Facebook, enjoy the friendly atmosphere and how everyone is so helpful and sharing! Such a wealth of knowledge tips and ideas but recently a lot of talk regarding the cost of handmade. I came across this post and thought it very fitting so have shared. What are you views?


I am off to grab a hook and ball of wool! Enjoy your Sunday :)

Teeny Tiny Dresses

I needed a change from wool so have been playing with cotton. It has been really hot the last couple of days and I find it easier to use finer cotton and I just happened across this pattern for these Tiny Dresses, so cute and make up in no time. I thought they would make super cute keyrings for Mother's Day but think they are a little big. I played around a little and even changed the hook down to a 2.00 which didn't change the size a great deal! The smaller Blue/White one is the size I prefer but I like the patten of the larger dress lol


 Off now to finish off another WIP, hope I finish it lol still trying to keep to my New Year mission of finishing projects before attempting a new one but I have so many new fav's I want to try... I blame Pinterest :)


Please pop by again and check out what I have been creating, loving the support Xxx

Can't decide ...

Browsing pinterst as you do and I came acoss a number of gorgeous African Flower patterns for throws, I love them. Although now after having made two samplers from two different patterns I can not decide which one I like best... sigh



Would really appreciate some likes for my FB page and if you are addicted to Pinterst like me you can find many of the projects I have done here :)

Helping out

I created this blog a while back and then discovered I could create a FB page to share my creations lol so this blog just lay dormant. There appears to be lots of crochet blogs and even more crochet facebook pages and groups but I love to share and hopeful I may just inspire one or two along the way :)

I have been busy crocheting lots of little prem beanies for PMH, Spotlight chose a charity every year and Mircale Babies is the one chosen for this year. Completed work can be dropped off to the lovely ladies in store and my closet is Cockburn. Currently they require Teddy's and Tiny Hearts, patterns are available here and here.


Just a few of the finished hats :)

Thanks so much for dropping by, hope to have a few more creations posted later this week :)
