I rarely keep crochet projects I made. Most of the time, I dispose them right away once I’m done with it because I’m just really after the “journey,” not the destination / finished product. =)

Originally, I made this shawl for my mother-in-law. But I fell in love with it so I kept it for myself. =)

I decided to stitch the opposite sides, and make a poncho out of it so that it will not keep falling off. =) 

So let the bloggerposes and selfies begin from the corners, to the beaches, to the universe. =)

Obviously, this has became my most photographed crochet item since then. 

 

Cebu Crochet Group: April 2019 Meetup Session

Upcoming meetup session: May 2019 Cebu Crochet Group Session 05/19, details >>

We receive a few inquiries about wanting to learn to crochet, or learn new tricks, or how to make certain projects. So we thought of having a regular once-a-month meetup session to tackle crochet-related stuff with fellow crocheters. Please note that this is open to public, non-members of the group are very welcome. We are lonely creatures stuck with hook and yarn so we do welcome new type company. =)

But, reall, don’t get intimidated, we just want to “chismis.” Think of it as a good excuse to take a break, sit down, and just betch. =)

I was the designated “hostess” for the previous’ session. So here a few photos from Berns Dy of 5chubbyfingers.com.
