Hooked on Wednesday!

Hello My Friends!!!!!
How are you today?
I feel good but...a bit sad...
Unfortunately yesterday I had to bring my sewing machine back to the shop because..."she" doens't work very well...


Stitches were perfect on the back but...not so neat on the right side and this is really strange because usually...if there are tension problems...happens exactly the oppsite...perfect stitches on the right side and...bad stitches on the back...
Plus...I also have problems with the embroideries...
So...I have to stay more than a week without sewing and I really hope that it will not be anything of too much serious or too much expensive... :O(


Anyway...I can't stay all this time...mmm...without make something so...I decided to do some crochet project!
I found THIS pretty pattern on Raverly for a crochet placemat and...I hooked it!!!!

I took my soooo big ball of natural crochet cotton yarn and a very old hook (it was one of my Grandma's hooks and so will make my placemat more precious!)

I just love how my project grows in my hands row after row...

And I can't wait to make another row for admire the result...

Now it's starting to take form...

And I'm loving it...
I still have few rows to make but I think I'll finish it tonight or at least...tomorrow night...

So...what are you doing?
Which project are you working on?
I'd love to hear from you!!!
Have a nice time with your crafting my Friends!!!!
Hugs, Dany.

Happily Crocheting

Hello my friends!!!!
How are you?
Hope everything is ok for you all... :O)

Winter is still here...cold temperatures and snow all around...
So this is the perfect time for...stay inside and do our favourite crafting...
During these cold days, I love to stay inside, near the fireplace, with a cup of hot tea (sometimes...hot chocolate...LOL) and...crochet!
I found it so relaxing...
So, I would love to show you some projects I did lately...

Here there are some doilies...

I have to say that I've never be a big fan of crochet doilies...my grandma made them but...always lace doilies with really tin white cotton...not my style at all...LOL...

But making them with colorful cotton and  4mm hook...well...I think they look nice!!!

So, THIS IS  the free pattern I used...

Then, I made this one with chunky yarn...
It remembers me a snowflake and I think it's so snowy...
I love it for winter time...
I used THIS FREE PATTERN...

For the 1st time...I made crochet buntings...
They are so much fun to make and looks great in every room of your house!!!

And...last...this is my work in progress project...a ripple rug...

I loooove ripples but...never made them before...tought they were so hard to make...

But...I found THIS TUTORIAL from Lucy Attic24, it's so easy to follow...

And I'm enjoying make my rug...

Hope you like my projects and that my links for free patterns and tutorials can inspire you... :O)

Happy crocheting and...Happy Crafting!!!!

Have a lovely week end.

XOXO, Dany
