Under Progress!!!!

I am attempting a Baby small sandals...from the same book of Lesley.I hv finished all the parts ...now just hv to do the joining....She has asked to do a crab stitch n i hv no idea what tat is....
so am learnin the same frm u tube..she has explined it in te buk too bti always hv a preference for video tutorials....they r so clear n easy!!!.

I jus hope i can post te finished project pic by 2morrow. :)

Sea boot bootees all set to wear!

This socks is something which after finishing , gave me a great great sense of achievement...tats becoz i hv tried almost 1 whole week trying to figure out the pattern instructions.....
finally i discovered the secret....the designer kept on writing double crochet but what she meant was attually a single crochet!!!!! phew.....wasnt tat a discovery!
i guess in sm parts of the world, yrh is not done bfor inserting thru the stitch....i hv seen couple of video instructions lik tat for dc bfore too..
anyways in te beginning of the book she had clearly shown what she meant by dc, just tat i missed reading tat.....

Neways, i now have a matching bootees for my sweater!!

this pattern is from the book i got--"Adorable crochet for babies and toddlers" by Lesley Stanfield
The paaterns in this range from simple to the more ambitious

Searching far n wide for a romber pattern!

I searched everywhere.....on ravelry....on crochet blogs...on google ...cudn find wat i wanted...
