I’ve been working hard(or hardly working) a line of scarves and hats. In my area rumor has it it’s going to be a colder winter. I mean I don’t expect anything extreme in the Peach state. I have several new scarfs I recently added to my shop for sale. >>>>> Check it out <<<<<<<< These scarves are $70 on my shop. “Oh that seems high. “Some may say. Well I don’t think so. I take a lot of time to make each scarf that I crochet. At least 6-7 hours. “Well crochet faster?” Some may suggest. Well I am a human not a machine. After not selling a thing at…

Black Becky with the good 4C hair— crochet doll edition
Clearly my attempt at making a eye catching title could use work. Anywho… This was a commission by a colleague for her daughter. The hair was my favorite part so far. I used crochet hair that is meant for crochet hairstyles. It’s a pretty useful technique and super easy, especially a 4C texture. It can be worked right into the stitches.

WIP Crochet Rainbow Skirt
Breaking News!!! MikuMarmalade is obsessed with crocheting Tutu skirts. Even her 3DS has been neglected. I totally have no regrets. Well, maybe just one.

I am adding a row of black and then purple(because what rainbow doesn’t have her royal majesty color, purple?!). I’m debating on if I want to add suspenders or keep it as a basic skirt. Meh.
