Jarum Gelangku (Pincushion Bracelet)

Awalnya saya tidak merasa perlu pincushion berbentuk gelang ini, tetapi kemudian ketika saya ingin mem"blocking" project rajutan maka saya merasa membutuhkannya.

Dengan memakainya sangat memudahkan saya menancapkan jarum2 di tempat yang diperlukan tanpa perlu jauh2 mencari si jarum.

Cara membuatnya mudah sekali dan tidak diperlukan waktu yang lama, cukup 20 menit saja selesai sudah.  Saya sharing cara pembuatannya dibawah ini.

ROSES always amazing

I dont know whose the first person made this pattern. Too many patterns look like similar . I took one of the link that I thought it's clear enough ( with basic tutorial inside ). Click here for basic rose.

After you made it you can play with it. Cause you'll different style of roses if you work with "right side", wrong side or you mix with right side first than wrong side. Which one do you like?? It depends on your project .

Here is the pic that I did it. You see.. how beautiful they're. Play with right side and wrong side is amazing for this pattern.

Try it and you'll love it. I hope my sharing could inspire you alot :)

Happy crocheting all

Recycle Cones for your ribbon

Do you love play with ribbons. I love to play with them. Sometimes I sew the ribbon and pull the thread to make a new style of ribbon ( ruffled them ). You can buy ruffled ribbons at store but it's cheaper if you make it by yourself. 


The problem is how to put them after you sew them, cause the original roll cant used anymore. Finally, I decided used recycle cones ( I made from my yarn cone ). I hope it could inspire you how to handle a new style ribbon. You can use can or plastic bottle too. But you must put something heavier in it. To make it steady. 


Da..da..da... your crafting room will look better and tidy with this colourful ribbon.
