Goliath Tote

Finally I finished making this bag !!!

I name it Goliath Tote because of its size which is very very big according to my opinion.

This is my friend's order and I made it more than a month !!!

The obstacle was feeling so bored when made this bag; monotonous pattern; felt never ending project and tired - not every week I crocheted this bag because I had prioritized activities to be done, not to mention that my friend don't like bright color - made me little bit confused between how to match the colors and I only have limited yarns in my house.

To make this bag different from other model bag, I attached some colored butterflies on it in the corner.
Different color butterfly on each side (as her request). On front side, I used light blue and purple yarn and back side, creamy and light blue butterfly. I also sewed few blue sequeins in large butterfly to make it shiny.

My friend always say to me that she don't like girly stuff and like bigger size bag with short handle... and here it is, I hope you like the bag I made it to you with all my love, time, and energy.... ahahahha....

The lesson I get from this project is never never again accept order for a very very big size bag... Soooo boringggg you knowwww !!! Ehehehee....


Size = 44 X 34 cm.

Fat Bottom Bag

I made this bag almost a half year ago !!
It wasn't because complicated pattern but I was looking for a good handle which in the beginning, I planned to use circle wood for it then I changed my mind. I wanted to make other type fat bottom bag handle.
Finally, I used only glittered yarn for the handle and I made it longer than previous.

I used broken white softy cotton and glittered brown acrylic yarn.
When I showed this bag to my coworker, she was very enthusiast and wanted to order it with longer handle than this so she can bring this bag in her shoulder...
When I asked her what does this bag for, she answered 'I think I'll use it to go to the party'... humm...

What do you think, does this bag suitable for party bag ???


Size = 24 X 14 cm.

Peach Chakra Purse

Honestly, felt soo desperate and fed up when made this bag because I had to re-crochet over and over again, soo exhausted !! x(
But I didn't give up (there is no such that word in my bible... ahahaha), just curious whether I could made this bag and how long... ehehehe...

When I understood the pattern, wow... that wasn't difficult at all instead I really enjoy crocheting this bag and want to make it again with bigger size.

Crochet this bag needs approximately 3 rolls of yarn - I used 2 rolls of peach softy cotton and 1 roll of yellow ICT for its edge.

Well, I think I will use it on Chinese New Year this sunday.... *show off mode on :)

Size = 24 X 18 X 4 cm.

Love Fairy

Valentine's day will come soon and I thought to made some amigurumis (I cut short as ami) that suitable with the occassion.
So, during my long annual leaves, I decided to crochet some of those.

First ami I made look like this.
Short haircut with few bangs on her head and a glitter red heart is in her hand while in back side I attached a pair of tiny wings to fly.
As head accessories, I made a circle headband and sewed a pinky flower to make her cuter.
At last, I made a crocheted hanger from black yarn (just like her hair) above her head so that I can stick it in my car window.
Does she look really cute ??? :)
She?? Yup, I planned to create 2 types of - which I called - Love Fairy : girl and boy.

In different day, I made 2 amis lineally.
I made the girl same as ami above except this time I made her hair quite long without any black hanger above and she was holding orange heart.
For the boy I chose sky blue color, short hair and he was holding yellow heart.
What do you think...
Do they a great couple ever ?? ^.^

Christmas Bunny


I made this bunny amigurumi as requested by my best friend. He said that he wants to give it as a christmas present to his friend.

For the first time, he wanted me to make a character named Labbit (you can googling what does it look like) but after I finished making the prototype, it wasn't cute at all !!!
Labbit character is so simple, a rabbit with white fur and long ear. The uniqueness is in its butt - there is a place to put your point finger in it ??? What a strange character I said.
So, I proposed to him to make another type of cute bunny with additional accessories was requested by him.

The making of it was in hurry. Not because he wanted to get it soon, but I had certification examination that made me have to study very intensely. During that period, I didn't accept any crochet orders from anyone. And thank God, I pass the examination with good result !!!
Yippie... !!!

Finally, I gave the bunny on time and he satisfied with the result even its tie was too big... ehehehe...

Size = 5 X 16 cm.
