Floral Bag ( pdf pattern for sale )


I never thought I would take to granny squares till I designed this one. It makes an amazing spring or summer accessory. You are sure to turn heads with this one. It's just a little bigger than a normal clutch and would go well with any dress.

The dimensions of the completed bag are 15 inches at the widest part and 9 1/2 inches from top of the handle to bottom of the bag. It's worked using worsted weight yarn in 5 different colors and a size H (5 mm) crochet hook. I used Red Heart Super Saver and Vanna's choice for the bag in the picture. Pattern includes instructions for lining the bag as well.

Casual Sandals (pdf pattern for sale)




This is a pattern that could add the right amount of punch to your little boy's wardrobe. It requires only basic crochet skills and some patience to align the straps. Clear instructions are given to guide you through every step. Once you are done you will have a finished product that will make you proud.

It is worked using worsted weight yarn. I used Red heart soft worsted for sole and Vanna's choice worsted for the straps. A double layered sole makes it as sturdy as a store bought one. Ankle strap is adjustable for a custom fit. The colors used here are magenta ( Vanna's choice) and grey heather ( Red heart Worsted). The picture doesn't do justice to the real color. After much futile efforts I finally decided to just post what I got. Pattern is written for 2 sizes, 6-9 months and 9-12 months. Hooks H and F were used here.

Payment can be made securely through PayPal. Once you pay, the pdf pattern will be emailed to you in 24 hours. Make sure you enter your email id correctly during checkout. Mail me if you have any questions. Please do not resell the pattern itself or pass it on to others. You can make it for yourself or as a gift.

Recycled Crochet Bag Handle (Free Pattern)


This post will tell you how to make a circular bag handle with things found in every home and some yarn. There are lots of crochet patterns that ask for circular bamboo handles and this could be a good alternative. Take a plastic lid from any throw away container. I used the lid of my yogurt container.

Use a sharp knife to make a slit near the edge of the circle . Insert your scissors through the slit and cut in a neat circle. My yogurt container had a line on it that I could use as a guide. But if your lid doesn't have it, use a marker and a smaller circular object to draw a circle on your lid first. You can see your handle take shape now.

Using your yarn and hook, I used a size H hook, work around the lid. Insert hook into the circle and put a slip knot on the hook from behind, pull up the slip knot and slip st around the handle as shown in pic 3 below. You can tighten it by pulling the tail. Now you have to start doing single crochet stitches around the handle. Insert the hook into the circle, yarn over and pull the loop up to the level of the outer circle , yarn over and pull through both loops on hook- single crochet made! See pic 4 below. Keep doing single crochet till the full circle is covered making sure to move the stitches close together after every few stitches to get a smooth finish. Fasten off and weave in the ends using a yarn needle. You have your very own handmade handle for your next crochet bag!



1. Cut out the inner circle


2. Your handle takes shape


3. Slip stitch around the handle


4. Make single crochet around the the handle


5. Completed handle

Boy's Slippons Crochet Booties (free Pattern) in 4 sizes


This is the first pattern I actually wrote. I started this as a girl's pattern and realized that just with a few changes, it can be adapted for a boy. There is a lace under the toe flap which helps in making the booties snug on tiny feet.

This was worked using worsted weight yarn and hooks H and F to fit ages 0-3 and 3-6 months. To make bigger sizes you will have to use a hook I too. Pattern is written for sizes 0-3, 3-6, 6-9 and 9-12 months. Picture of every step is included in the pdf in a way even beginners can understand. I was using the leftover yarn I had and I think the purple should have been a tad brighter. The black one looks lovely but the picture fails to capture its real beauty. Place a big button in place of the bow to give it an added edge. Use your imagination and make it your own. Click here for  Free Pattern.
