Crochet Pattern: Fuchsia Flower

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 here, in Sumenep. having the crocheted version done, make me feel happy.


I documented the making process, including pattern and step-by-step pictures. Then, in my spare time I wrote the tutorial.

If you want to make this crochet flower, too, you can get the pattern on my Etsy Shop. It's ON SALE!

Karakteristik Benang Rajut

Di Indonesia, benang yang paling popular adalah benang acrylic wool , atau yang lebih familiar disebut “benang siet”. Namun, sebenarnya jenis benang sangat bervariasi. Berikut diantaranya: 1.       Benang katun ( Cotton yarn ) Sesuai namanya, benang yang umum digunakan oleh para pemula ini terbuat dari serat kapas. Benang katun bersifat dingin, mudah menyerap keringat, lentur, kuat, ringan, dan memiliki banyak varian warna. Benang ini termasuk “benang multiproject ”, karena bisa digunakan untuk berbagai macam jenis rajutan. Misalnya, bros, bandana, pinggiran kerudung, syal, tatakan gelas, tas, sepatu, sandal, dan sebagainya. Berdasarkan varian warnanya, benang katun dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu plain (polos) dan ombre (warna sembur/gradasi). Tingkat kehalusannya pun berbeda-beda antara jenis benang katun yang satu dengan yang lain. Soft cotton , misalnya, adalah yang paling halus diantara benang berbahan dasar kapas. Sementara itu, satu tingkat di bawahnya, ada katun b

Bagaimana Menghitung Harga Rajutan?

Sekitar tahun 2011, terbersit ide untuk memulai usaha yang bisa saya kerjakan tanpa mengganggu aktifitas saya sebagai ibu. Saat itu, saya sedang membuat peci rajut untuk suami. "Kenapa nggak menjual rajutan saja?" pikir saya. Yang menjadi kendala saat itu, tentu saja modal. Sebagai seorang ibu rumah tangga yang tak punya penghasilan pribadi (bahkan tabungan pribadi pun tak punya sepeser pun), tentu modal menjadi kendala terbesar saya.  Minta langsung sama suami? Ah, malu. Saat itu saya beberapa kali bercerita padanya tentang ide saya itu, namun belum juga mendapat respon positif. Ia pun sepertinya masih meragukan bakat saya dalam merajut. Akhirnya, saya berpikir untuk meminjam uang pada ayah saya. Saya ceritakan ide saya untuk memulai usaha, dan alhamdulillah gayung bersambut. Papa tidak meminjamkan uang, tetapi langsung memberi modal yang nominalnya sangat-sangat cukup untuk sekedar membeli beberapa pack benang, hakpen dan manekin. (FYI, nominalnya lebih dari 1 gram ema
