Little Halter black and red

A little baby halter that I had designed for a very beautiful little girl. I really loved how it turned out. It was made for a custom order. When I had started off , I had a different idea. But then sometime ( a bit often actually , with me ) as you work the ideas begin to change and you end up with a totally different design from what you had originally started. This is one of those projects. I loved how it turned out. I should work on writing a pattern for this in different sizes. Maybe in 2015, I will. I love the way it can be folded to like like a little purse !

Sunshine Baby Halter
There is always an attraction towards the baby clothes! And halter tops for the little ones are probably the cutest things ever besides the baby sandals. This little set is another such inspiration.




Another Baby Halter

It's my own design and was very easy to make. I have few more ideas floating around but haven't found their way to the hooks yet. Hopefully, someday, I'll turn up a whole new baby collection!

Beach Babe

A wee halter top and matching head scarf for a little beach babe. Out here it's still quite nice to spend a day at the beach- yes still warm enough outside!!!


And then there is more - flip flops for the pretty little feet as well.

That's my Little Beach Babe !








ETA: Wondering why there are more than one post in a day ? Yup, gotta make up for lots of lost time. I've been a bad blogger :(. But for those of you who have not given on me and still been visiting me here I have a lot to make up for! Thank you for being so supportive.



I had made a scarf for a friend a while back and had fallen in love with the yarn. This halter was made with the leftover yarn. When I saw it I knew I had to make a little something with it for my niece and what better than a halter for the summers out here? the best part was there was still some more left over which was just right for the head scarf and ties for her little flip flops. This was one of those quick projects which I had managed to finish during a 2 hours drive from Abu Dhabi to Dubai.

9. Baby afghan for gift (done)
I've shown the pictures of most of the projects . So here the remaining projects.

Baby sandals for my neice:


Once the sandals were done I couldn't resist making a little scarf - a head kerchief actually.


and of course wouldn't the little one need a cute halter to go with it???



.......and so a halter top - and before I knew it there was the whole set done!


And yes...I'm so mad at myself for not having my camera around with me when she wore it and looked like such a doll.Anyhoo, I'll get her picture in it and show it here.

Another FO is this Baby afghan for my Cousin's little boy.It's based on the spider web pattern and inspired by a pattern from the Leisure Arts booklet on baby afghan.I saw someone at Crochetville had done this afghan and decided to use the same stitch pattern.



And this one finally , is the a lacy scarf for my friend's teenaged daugther. She picked up the colours by herself and the pattern is based on sooo many fan- type bookmarks and scarves I've seen online. I hope she likes it.


Although I'm posting this now,I'm so happy that my whole list is done and I managed to finish it off before September except for the special project- which went alom=ng until half of September. I'll post those pictures at a later post. This post wouldn't get published for the last two weeks....:( ! I have more FOs to show by now. I guess soon enough I'll do that .It's been a busy month of Ramadan and now there will be some free time only after Eid.
I hope to pop in before that but until then take care and have a great day all my friends.
