Crochet pieces - Part ONE

It, s been a while since I have posted something and it is not because I have gave up on my needles...oh!no! far away from that I have been busy, busy, busy working not only with my needles but had to bead few stuff as well. My plate is so full and I have not got the time to take pictures and post them on the blog...but I will be able to do so very soon.

Actually I am working on a Irish crochet dress or maybe I should say a crochet dress as all the pieces are not necesarily irish crochet but more likely plain crochet. Anyway I have crocheted dozen of motifs and yet more to do in different colors and different yarns. Although I have in mind the model I want to make but still have to make up my mind on what yarn and color to use...and Hey!. it does not really matter how many colored pieces I crochet as I am sure they will not go to waste.

The following were the first motifs I crocheted but since then the pile outgrow about 200 hundred more pieces and I will post them later.

Pink Scarf finished!

Something nice for me

I coud not resist this variegated yarn.

Octagons and squares Bedspread - Finished

It´s been a while since I started this bedcover. I could not find neither the black nor Aran or burgandy color in the supersaver RED Heart yarn so I tried with several different other brands but did not like any of them. Finally last week, in my quest to find a fabric to make a purse, I enter into a small store in the Zocalo zone and boom, there was all color of Red Heart Super Saver like there was no tomorrow. I literally jumped out of joy, needless to say that I bought all the black /aran/ and burgandy I could  I finished it Saturday night and I just have to block it.
Although it is said that acrilic cannot be block but I will steam it anyway.

 

 



 



Two color sweater

Por fin he podido sacar el tiempo necesario para terminar todas las piezas de mi sweater.  Me gusto mucho este modelo que encontré en una revista. Altere el modelo un poco al cambiar no tan solo el color pero también optar por no hacer el intarsia cuya técnica me intimida un poco.
Espero poder montar las piezas muy pronto.

Mangas largas

 

Delantera

 

Espalda

 

Pieza del cuello

Pinky hat

I think I should pass a nice ribbon through the slots and also hadd a flower. This is a hat for a toddler made in crochet.

 

Pink scarf

I have started this scarf about a 2 month ago and I finally took time this week end work on it. I have been so busy at the office lately that I have not touch a needle. It felt so go to renew with my hobby after so many "needle free" days.

I have to finish it f course but yet here is a picture of what I have so far. I have crossed 6 crocheted strands

 I hope after blocking it the look will be even more beautiful.

 I am only missing about 17 rows and hopefully I can work on it no later than this tonight

 Cashemere crocheted with circular needles No. 3.5mm Knitter´s Pride.
