Atlast the sun has started coming out and I'm getting some beautiful sunlight in my room.

Playing with hook & yarn and sipping hot tea in glorious sunlight is one of the simple yet beautiful pleasure in life!

It was so much fun to make this quick basket. I crocheted it with two strands of 4 ply yarn held together. I was kind of cursing myself after I bought this yarn as I wasn't sure what should I make with it but this yarn is almost perfect to make baskets, specially granny baskets. Since I've found a perfect use of this yarn I'm cursing myself why didn't I buy more balls of it! 

Pattern here

Currently its holding my little balls of yarn and other tidbits which I love to see around. I think this basket can be used to hold virtually anything. You can store your little ones' toys, your cosmetics, and offcourse your yarn & other craft supplies.

See you later !

I made a (almost) cushion !

Well well I can now join my sqaures as I go.. And I must say its quite enjoyable to join/make your squares this way. I've also noticed it workes up quite quickly.

Can you see that last square is missing ? oh yes one last square needs to be joined and then I will start convincing myself to sew up these tons of tails. I wish I had a little sister or friend around who could sew up these tails for me, provided they didn't hate to do it as much as I do. But I guess it would be easier for me to convince them than to convince myself for this boring, boring & boring task...!

I can't stop loving my new yarn colors, I almost want to eat them! During this heat around, they look like scoops of colorful ice-cream to me. Oh I love you soo much my sweet sweet new yarn! They make me happy all day when I see them, they keep me inspired during all day, they invite me to make something beautiful with them, they invite me to play with them... I think they are my new freinds..... hellow my new friends, thank you to make me feel so happy everyday !

I'm wondering what is making you happy these days to keep the heat away & to bring the joy around ????

How bad I'm here after two months. I know I know I'm not a good blogger! Life has been a strange roller coaster of responsibilities & emotions during the past 3 months. I did manage to contunue with my sewing & crochet but I just couldn't manage to blog about my projects. I had been active on Flickr and found some new freinds there during this time and I'm really excited about my new flickr contacts!

So..... I'm here just for a quick post to let my two precious subscribers know that I'm very much alive and around!

I have so much queued up to blog about and I hope to finally start showing you all the projects I had been upto so far.

Since a blog post without photographs is not a good idea so I'm leaving you with these two photos of my new cushion in progress. I'm feeling very peachy to see all the colors of my yarn & circles going so well with my new rug. Awwwww I'm just LOVIN' it !!!!!!!

I see you all soon.... (atleast I hope so !)

Pot holders ? Dish Cloths ? or  A cute bag for the summer ?

Oh and I have these bigger hooks now to finally embark on some quick afghan or rug project!
