I 3> Crochet

I have fallen in love with the  art of crocheting this Ramadan, and when Alia has fallen asleep I sit myself next to her and start working on this ball for her. I have many more projects I would like to try, like these fruits and these cupcakes! 
The fruits are especially high on my to-do list as I can picture them as the cutest accessories to a dolls dress or a doll headband.

Cake, crochet and sleeping baby


I am still crocheting a lot these days. These are a pair of baby boots for a friend who just gave birth to a baby boy, but they can also easily be used for Waldorf dolls. Alia is fast asleep after a lovely walk in the rain.

Marialai and Lila









We are getting settled into life in America and have spent the last month mainly visiting family and eating :) When I was too full to eat delicious Afghan food and Alia was asleep, I made Marialai and Lila for two lovely girls. The red tutu dress is unfortunately not my creation but the pink dress is.  I also tried to make a sweater for Waldorf dolls that I found online. The fit is a little too bulky for my liking so I think I am going back to  following newborn knitting recipes.

Alia and I are stuck in the house most of the day as I do not have a drivers license but I am trying to go out a few times a week to a local knitting workshop where I am learning to crochet again. I am doing lots of projects and I cant wait to share them.
