krow'shey


When I was in grade school, our TV was often damaged and we are left only with the radio to make us entertained. But time came when radios became boring and so we (my older sisters) would imitate our Mom seated in a corner – crocheting.

That was when I started how to learn to crochet, by imitation. My eldest sis (Ate Jam) and I started with making crocheted rings, bracelets and then ponytails which we did by covering rubber bands with crochet. Rubber bands as ponytails are not hair-friendly coz it tangles with the hair strands, but if it’s covered with crochet it can be removed easily.

While in high school, crocheting was not part of my past time coz I was inclined on reading novels that time. When I saw yarns one time while I was in college, my desire for crocheting was again restored. Since then, crocheting became a part of me: while watching a movie, talking to someone, pampaantok, etc., I am doing it.

Here are some of those I have made which are with me now. I have given a lot of small pouches to a lot of people as a gift or just a show of appreciation.=)

calculator case (since I was the one who spent for this calculator, I  have to take care of it.hehe)

my CASIO fx-570ES PLUS scientific calculator and its case (this is my best buddy in preparation for and during my board exam)
on the left is the Liz Claiborne handbag that Aunt Rose sent me, while the one on the right is a body bag which I made last Feb 2011 (I was supposed to give it to someone but unfortunately I don't know who's that someone) anyway, I was so surprised upon seeing the handbag that was sent here in Leyte from California by my auntie. It has the same pattern used (colors: green-dark blue-light blue). Thank you very much Auntie Rose!=)
a lady shoulder bag. This rainbow-colored yarn which came with a very stout hook is from my Auntie Rose.  I love that hook, I never there would be a hook like that.
cover for my internet usb stick. soo pink.=)
green pouch. This is what I usually do with my hook and yarn, a small pouch where I can put almost anything.=)
