Tapestry Crochet

I have been sick for a week,... and then to see doctor.... @.@ so now I am still taking medicine.

Meanwhile, I started again my frogged project.... (was started in Nov 2012 when I was in holiday at Kota kinabalu, Malaysia)

This crochet technique should be called as "Tapestry crochet" as I searched online. This pattern is from one of a Japanese pattern books I bought in last Summer! 

The pattern here is in 2 color, Black & White.

Base is Round and crochet in Black color, the floral pattern part is in 2 color and the tricky part is the instruction indicates in White = my black color,... and crochet in Black color can make you blind!!!!! 

After back from holiday and I realize the floral part I did (around 5 rows) had some mistake...ugh..... 

After sitting in my bedroom for months, I decided to dig it out and try to finish it! After nights from the last 5 days sitting in my bed, turn on my desk lamp to get better light then I started over again the floral part. NOW, here we are: 



18 more rows for the body part (black color only),  and then with the scallops rim & strings.... 
My target is to KO it within this week! 

Stay tune! ahahahaha

May is arrived.... 1st project of this month


I bought this pattern book when it was on sales. This crochet top is my favorite one! Also, I found this color cotton yarn, like dark jean blue. 

I never tried to crochet like this to wear! It is very interesting (at least for me) that crochet from a square, then connect to another square... total 28 square.. then DONE! This is amazing..... 



I crochet one on 30/4 but I kept it as a sample. So yesterday I started new... I made two... wow... it took me more than an hour per motif... hehe look simple but still a lot of workload!
Or 
once I can memorize the pattern, I can do faster!?!! 

Stay Tune! :)
