Blog hop!!!

I’m posting today about the “Around the world Blog hop” invitation I received from Ruth of Rose Hill Collections. Thank you so much Ruth for inviting me. 🙂 Ruth is a also a crocheter and a knitter. Her creations are beautiful and her speed in crocheting is what amazes me. Do visit her blog and you’ll see it for yourself. 🙂

Well, like a blog award this blog hop invitation comes with a few responsibilities too. I mean a few questions 🙂

So here I go

Hmmm I usually have multiple projects going on, but currently the project consuming most of my time is a knitted baby set. I’m planning to make a baby vest, a beanie and a pair of booties. I’m quite new to knitting.

I’ve knitted only scarves before this. So this is my first ever knitted baby set.  And dropped stitches are still a bit of a worry. I’m sure I’ll grow more confident with time.

Well creating is something I started because I wanted to kill boredom after returning home from office. My husband’s work place was very far from home, so he would return home late. So there was no way I could make the wait shorter, but crochet would definitely make it feel shorter. 

After I started creating, I felt the need to document my creations somewhere, so what better than a blog. It helps me keep track of my what I make and express my passion towards it, in words as well. 

I’m a slave to patterns available online. I sometimes feel I should try to create a pattern of my own, but never find time as it requires a lot of experimetation. Maybe someday.

I mostly have multiple projects going on simulatneously, this not only keeps me from getting bored but also helps me complete them faster.

I usually have one project for home and another for my commute to office. 🙂 

Everytime I create something I take a lot of photos. With time I have improved a lot on photography. I have a regular point and shoot camera. Nothing great. 

But I invest a lot of time in capturing many pics of my work to get the shot that satisfies me. And I believe this has sometimes helped my work get more appreciation than I expected. I would love to have a DSLR very soon and my birthday is also approaching(so I hope my husband is reading this too 😉 ) Hehe.

Here comes the last step. I need to find some bloggers whom I would pass this on to. 

I would like to nominate these people:

1. Anitha from A little love everyday : She’s a multi talented blogger friend of mine. She crochets, sketches and is interested in quilling too. Her crocheted dolls are amazingly beautiful. 🙂 If interested do give her a visit and check out her latest crochet doll. 🙂

2. Anna from “Cultures’ chord by Hindustanka“. She’s a lovely friend who also crochet and writes about her inter-cultural experiences in India. She has recently had a baby, so if you want to wish her, click here. 🙂 

3. Dassana from “veg recipes from India“. She has an amazing food blog where she post recipes which can make you drool. I love her step by step pictures which just make them so easier to follow.

And this brings my list of to-do things for this weekend to an end.

I’m exhausted and it’s time to hit the sack.

Wishing you all a great week ahead.

Till I post again!
