This crocheted blouse is a mixture of textures – soft, hard and rough.

This project is somehow memorable since this is the first time I heard about pineapple stitch. That’s why i named it  PiÑa Collada.

I played with the idea of including fabric into crocheted and it turned out good. I made it for my bestfriend.

PiÑa Collada

I used a native fabric from Ilocos. The fabric is actually handwoven.

And to make it more casual, i crocheted a bolero to go with it:

Pink @ work

This pink crocheted top is made from two strands of monaco crochet thread.

Take a closer look at the motifs used for the blouse:

Closer Look

This blouse used to be one of my favorites. I just have to wear it on top of a spaghetti strap and i’m off to go.

It’s actually the second blouse I was able to make during my first sem at graduate school . I used 2 balls of ecru, 1 ball of pink, 1 ball of dark pink and 1 ball of variegated monaco yarns

I also wear them when i go out with my friends

Me and My Barkada

They are durable enough to withstand multiple washings (in washing machine, mind you.)

Sometimes it’s fun to have all your girl friends wear your creations. and know that they actually like them

Beauties and the Beast

And so that at the end of the day. You always have fun even after sore fingers.

Project Description

This is the first crocheted clothing I made from baguio yarns. Stitch-wise, this clothing is easy to do. But if you are not as patient, this would be too tiring, too repetitive and boring. I barely managed to finish it, not because I wanted to, but felt compelled to. It’s because if i left this unfinished, it would forever be. And so, to make full use of the newly purchased yarns by michael, I finished this clothing and felt proud.

You could increase the length of the blouse by adding another row. This project is made from the sleeves down. It is convenient to wear even without a tube underneath since the stitches are kinda thick, you wouldn’t feel so anxious.
