I have influenced my mom to crochet again

I have influenced my mom to crochet again. And she has crocheted a lot ever since. Now she is helping me with my business.

She is also taking orders from my facebook page as well.

Here is her current product:

Mint Green Crocheted Skirt

I am more than amazed on her finished skirt. She has been indulging me since last Christmas that she’ll make something for me. And here it is. I really really like how the crocheted skirt turned out.

As soon as I published the skirt on facebook, we had an order for this design. And my mom started it right away, she can crochet so long as my little kiddo won’t play around the yarn.

The open lace work pattern we used for the skirt is very nice. I really like the stripes and the lace combined :)

My mother’s first scarf

Last month, i engaged my dear mother with some crocheting tasks, to make a scarf for my dear friend. My mom was my first crochet teacher, now its my turn to reteach her the things i learned from her. It was easy and fun and endearing. Sometimes my mom would go all the way from Bulacan to SM North just for us to meet and show me her current progress.

Finally, last sunday, my mother surprised me with the finished scarf. I like how she manage to make even stitches. I am so tempted not to give it to the recipient, but my mom is just too happy to do that for him, that i have to put up extra measures just to make sure that my friend gets the scarf before he leaves for China, the following day.

Oh well. he loved the yarns and would like to let my mom knows that he is grateful for the scarf that he sent me a picture of him wearing it. :) He’s keeping a low google profile, so let’s no longer name this guy.

The scarf is made from three colors of wool yarn.

Btw, remember the first scarf i made? It’s still alive after all these years. He finally sent me a copy :) I m so happy that i saw my first scarf again.
