Crochet Pineapple Shawl

Hey ....My cousin had gifted me yarn I don't remember when, but it came very handy when I started my crochet shawl project.

I had always wanted to make a shawl for me. Idea this time was to get something which can be worn as a PONCHO and SHAWL both, and I like pineapple. So PINEAPPLE SHAWL was an obvious choice for the pattern.

I googled around couple of websites and got  a nice looking pattern from http://www.redheart.com/free-patterns/sidewalk-shawl. You may find many varieties of pineapple patterns available on the internet. This is my favorite of all those.

Pattern in the website had different edging. I liked the edge style in a different website that gives curvy look to the shawl.






Tada here it is :) ;) <3





Don't forget to email me about on your thoughts and suggestions. And you can inbox me on my facebook page too!!! :)

Rosette Flowers DIY Tutorial

DIY Tutorial Series
Hey Guys, I missed to take photographs during this project. But I can guarantee that you can do your project after reading this post. And if you still need more information do drop me a comment or mail me.


I started by with cutting a 18" by 4" strip from the fabric. then folding the strip into half on width(reducing the width). Then give basting stitches on the the edge 1/4" inside the edge. Draw the stitches slowly so that the strip gathers together at various points. 

Now cut a small circle on a chart paper around 3/4" in diameter. Start to paste the gathered strip from the outer periphery of the circle and run towards inside. Use a fabric glue gun to do this. Stick 3 pearls in the centre of the flower. Rosette is ready!

Barbie Handmade Dress and Crochet Hat

Hello there - I have always wanted to give my barbies a new look(Why shouldn't they when I am getting those). These barbie dresses are made from cotton and synthetic polyester materials. Hats are 100% woollen made through crocheting. Hat patterns are my own designs. Though I am not expert in crocheting hats I tried my best.

Cinderella in white gown designed and stitched by me :) 


Princess line panel with sweetheart neckline and bottom part with three-layered-circle skirt. Flowers I had cut from a lace fabric and glued to the dress with fabric glue and pearls too

I am definitely obsessed with barbies!!! ;) <3

Oven Mitt DIY Tutorial


Hi Readers - 'Oven Mitt' is a simple for-the-beginners project. Any newbie can think to pick up. Here I am giving illustrations on how to go about it.

Materials required for the project are -

1) Any Paper for pattern(eg. Newspaper, Brown paper, Chart Paper)
2) Pencil/Pen
3) Fabric markers
4) Lining Material - cut 2 pieces
5) Fleece Material - cut 2 pieces
6) Main Fabric Material - cut 2 pieces



Take a paper and draw freehand outline of the hand by keeping your palm over the paper. Leave sufficient margin outside the palm


Cut the pattern from the paper when you are satisfied with the drawing



Cut the fleece using the paper pattern. I got this from D-Mart for just Rs. 99 /-




Similarly cut the pattern on main fabric and the lining fabric


This is lining material


Sandwich the fleece between the main fabric and lining fabric(1 piece each pf all three fabrics). Put criss cross lines through sewing machine on the outline. One panel is ready. Second panel is mirror image of the first panel. Prepare it in exactly the same way 


Join both the panels. You can use a bias tape at the bottom outline as in image below. 
Your 'Oven Mitt' is ready!!!! :)
