A granny shawl for me me me ;)

Good morning lovely ladies around the globe 🙂

How’s everything?

So, I started something for myself with the sooooo beautiful yarn Joumana sent me…(Joumana, with every stitch I make I think of you and thank you 🙂 )

You know something? I’ve never tried to crochet with something else rather than acrylic and cotton yarn 🙂 funny eh? and I am sooooo enjoying the softness of the alpaca yarn…will I become addicted? Hoping no 😉

I’m crocheting a granny shawl for myself like you already guessed from the title of the post…a big big granny shawl…big enough to wrap me completely 😀

Wanna see some pics?

This is the start of my granny shawl…

The pattern is very simple to follow…it is like crocheting a granny square cut in half 😉 .

and like all granny squares it is ADDICTIVE and easy and perfect to crochet with a baby, or watching T.V as you don’t need much concentration to make it…

This is the graphic of the shawl if you’re interested in making one for yourself or as a gift for someone special…

It is crocheted in rows.

I managed to add more rows before I wrote this post…This is my progress so far…

Yes it is very fast to crochet 😉

Would you join me in this new adventure? Hope that you will … so we can both wear our big and beautiful granny shawls and think about each others 🙂

Wishing you a wonderful day!

Big kisses

 P.S: “Love birds” the bedspread I was crocheting for our room is almost done…I am making right now its border…so suspect a tadaaaaa post very soon…it will be explosive 🙂

I am having some problems with the subscriptions and I know that many of you are not receiving e-mails notifications every time I write a new post…I am so sorry about that…I’ll try my best to fix this problem asap.

Good morning lovely people!

Hope all is good for you 🙂 Like you’ve already noticed I’m not blogging as much as I used to and I’m crocheting at a very slow rythm too…but I’m sure you can understand why…

The baby blue little vest  is done and I thought I should pop in to say hi and show you some pics too…

Now, I’m working on my love birds bedspread….do you remember it? It’s been a while since I’ve crochet these lovely grannies and I missed them…

Actually, all the squares are done and I’m finishing the last blue round for each one…Still have these :

  

Youpiiiiiiiiiiiiii! and then I should join them all…don’t know if little Joe will let me make this huge work 😉

Here are some pics of my little bundle of joy….

I’m totally crazy in love…

and one last thing to show you today before I go…

 my new handpainted owl 🙂

Isn’t it lovely? 🙂

Have to go now… I always feel  like I’m stealing minutes so I can pop in to tell you hello 🙂 but I know that this won’t be this way forever… so my sweeties, forgive my little blogging time and

Have a super day!

BIG BIG BIG kisses from the bottom of my heart!

Little pleasures…

Hello sweeties,

How are you? Hope everything is great in your part of the world …

It’s been a while but I am sure you can understand why… I’ve been so busy these days… not a minute for myself… but a positive kind of busy days 😉

Little Joe is time consuming but I am very happy…Even though my schedule is a little boring I just love it… cuddling, carrying, breastfeeding, whispering sweet little songs, not sleeping at all but I love it and I know that this won’t last and that I will regret these days one day … so I have to appreciate every second…

Here are some pics for you…some little pleasures in my ordinary life…

The beautiful sky of this morning…

Little crochet I’m trying to make…just a little bit when he sleeps in his bed and not on me :)…baby vests for my little angel…He’s wearing them a lot …keeping his little tummy warm 😉

I’ve finished a green one and just started a second one in a delicious baby blue yarn …

Little Joseph almost one month old 😉

I am in love…

and I melt with pleasure when he looks at me 🙂

  Hope you’re having little pleasures today 😉

Wishing you a wonderful time!

Kisses and hugs

Hello

Hello hello hello!

How are you my friend? It’s been a while and I really missed you…

I’m living surrounded by my yarn and my wips, watching them everyday but not being able to work with them that much…my fingers and hands hurting me a lot…

But it makes me happy having them near my bed 🙂

I’m reading a lot too and I’m waiting….waiting…waiting…waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggg

waiting for my C-section which will be on september17…8 days to go now…

I’m a little stressed and worried but can not wait to hold my little boy in my arms…

I thought I would pop by and tell you a little hello-post cause I really really missed you…

and I hope that everything is going well for you 🙂

Have to go now…

Wish me good luck…

Will come back soon I promise;)

Warm kisses!

A small update

Good morning my sweet friends

I’m missing blogging these days…

I’m missing blogging, knitting and crocheting 🙁

I have the carpal tunnel syndrome … I am having tingling and numbness in my hands … and this is making me crazy…preventing me from working with my hands… which I’m not used too…at all…

and I still have two weeks to go before my C-section due date … Grrrrr… how to pass the time when you can not do anything with your hands??? tell me…

This is a quick update with all my wips…I have to show you…even though I’m working like 1% of my usual hobby time and my fingers are hurting me like crazy…

First, my mother taught me how to follow knitting instructions from a book to make a little sweater for my baby…

It is not so difficult and I began… after many trials this is what I’ve been up to…

I’m very proud of myself 🙂 hehe and I feel like a bright new door opened for me… even though I’ll have to wait for this bad carpal tunnel syndrome to go away…

I’ve made little progress in the jacquard cushion too… adding small hearts 🙂

and more progress in the patchwork crocheted baby’s bedspread 😉

This will have to wait too…

but I’ll wait…what can I do? It is after all for a good cause 🙂

Have to go now… excuse me if I’ll be less present here in the coming days…

I’ll miss you for sure…

Big big kisses to you through this post…

See you soon 😉
