Hi friends,
Hope you all are doing great!
When I started crocheting, I always wanted to move to a place with abundant winter so that I could flood my wardrobe with lots & lots of sweaters, socks, mitts, caps....never ending list :-) I was so naive I thought we can crochet & knit only woollies; so, I named my blog as "Welcome Winter!". Unfortunately, I lived in Bangalore where we hardly needed any woolens. So, I started making dresses, skirts, etc. using threads. (I simply love to crochet, be it anything...)
Now that we moved to Boston, I can do justice to the name of my blog my making lots of winter wear. I have a huge list of items for the next winter which I will share later. Till then some of the stuffs I made for this winter:
Dresses and sweaters...
Newborn booties and caps...
Caps, mitts and neck warmers...
Cowls...
Booties...
But I do not want to limit myself to creating only winter wear....so, I'm getting ready for spring/summer. Can't wait to share with you all my "Summer in Crochet" collection.
I'd like to share with you the pattern of the neck-warmer I made for my daughter (it's a must have for winters).
Knitted Neck Warmer
Hope you all are doing great!
