A Journey of my Crochet Life

Bismillah, Akhirnya, setelah sekian lama blog ini terbengkalai, saya siap dengan project baru lagi. Rajutan? Bukan! Kali ini baju tidur 😊 Beberapa pekan lalu, saya membongkar koleksi perca. Perca berbagai ukuran banyak menumpuk disana. Hehe... khas crafter lah, sayang kalau perca dibuang begitu saja. Di antara tumpukan itu, saya menemukan sehelai kain yang lumayan lebar, sisa membuat kerudung Nayfah tahun lalu. Awalnya bingung mau dibuat apa. Hingga akhirnya, terlintas ide untuk mencoba membuat baju tidur yang terlihat cute . Setelah browsing sana-sini tentang cara membuat tanktop dan celana pendek, saya beranikan diri untuk praktek. Tak disangka, saat saya menunggahnya di akun facebook dan instagram , banyak sekali yang mengapresiasinya. Karena itulah, saya buat pola dan tutorialnya; agar semua istri bisa membuat "baju anti pelakor"-nya sendiri. 😄 Target awal saya, setidaknya sepekan setelah upload foto tersebut, saya akan memposting polanya. Qodarullah, ternyata mouse rus

What's the perfect gift for a bride-to-be? Yes! It's flower bouquet! But... wait, fresh flowers can be dried-flowers days after marriage, right? Why don't we use other flower bouquet --the crocheted one? It lasts longer, even years, and you can save your wedding flower bouquet in your home as decoration ^_^ I made this bouquet on 2017, and it's a part of my first book (Rajut 3D a.k.a. 3D Crochet). Many people said that it's a good idea to make crocheted flower bouquet. I also sold this pattern on my Etsy Shop, but unfortunately it's suspended right now (don't know why... I contacted Etsy Support but got no answer). Page 1 & 2 page 4 & 5 Never mind, you can get the pattern here.

Once upon a time, my daughter Nayfah asked me, "What's the smallest bird in the world?" I said, "It's humming bird. People named it colibri ." "How does it look?" she asked, again. I opened Chrome on my phone and searched for colibri images. I found a beautiful picture that made me and my daughter charmed. Here is the pic: My daughter said, "What a cute bird!" I said, "What a beautiful flower!" Seems like we have different point of view, haha! I went to a nurseries and find no fuchsia flowers here, in Sumenep. So... I think I should make the crocheted ones. Hours later, I messed up the yarn basket looking for white and pink fingering-weighted cotton yarns. I zoom-in the pic then tried to make petals. Thanks God I found matching flower buds :D And here is the result: Done! I was pleased by the result. Of course the original one is more beautiful. God make it, right? , I couldn't find the plant

Dulu, menjahit adalah hal yang paling saya hindari. Bahkan karena rasa enggan pada cabang craft yang satu ini, project tas banyak menumpuk karena furingnya belum dijahit. Namun, beberapa bulan belakangan, saya banyak berkenalan dengan crafters yang hobi jahit-menjahit. Melihat postingan mereka setiap hari, membuat saya penasaran. Se-menyenangkan apa sih, menjahit itu? Akhirnya saya buat satu project. Alhamdulillah berhasil ^_^ Lalu mencoba project yang lain, berhasil lagi. Alhamdulillah Allah mudahkan. Poin paling mengasyikkan dari menjahit, menurut saya, adalah bahwa project ini sangat cepat selesai. Untuk membuat sebuah tas merukuran medium seperti ini, misalnya. Membuatnya hanya sehari. Bandingkan dengan jika membuat versi rajutannya. Berapa lama kira-kira? Mungkin sekitar 2 pekan. Proses pembuatan yang relatif lebih cepat dan harga jual yang tidak terlalu jauh selisihnya dengan tas rajut, membuat saya semakin suka dengan bidang craft ini. Lalu, apakah saya sudah
