memory of the doves and pigeons I used to love watching as a child in
my school  premises. Dedicating this for the love of birds.






















A Hobo Bag
A very handy kinda handbag.This comes with a lining and a zip.You can carry it around hazzlefree,- just fits like a glove



.


I crocheted this  hobo bag for my daughter using a triangular design.This is ideal for tossing in a bottle of water and few books,a soft toy,a PSP or something handy when on a journey or a day out or whatever. I dont have a written pattern but if anyone requests I can give the basic pattern



This small bag is worked in rounds and I use this to keep all my needles and hooks.

introduction

Hi,
I love to work on threads and yarn and wish to work for and share the age old  crafts such as Crochet ,Knitting ,Cross stitch, Appliques, Quilting, et al.Novelty Items were made only for relatives or friends.Its my pleasure to be doing this wonderful art and love to make them always  A thing of beauty is Joy forever. Majority of my craft is crochet.Crochet being a delicate art can be made in  few pieces due to the time it needs to be made with my 20+ years speed.As all the best pieces cannot be mass produced. All hand made acessories are special. For the love of all handcrafters.......
