risna — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 14:53:38 +0000

I started this project on September last year, after quite some time I didnâ€™t play with my hook. I thought I will stay with my hook, but I was wrong. These last 3 days, I was in the good mood in crocheting. Finally another work-in-progress from last year is finished. The Mystery Crochet Along was [...]

Crocheted Shawl Finally Finish

risna — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 04:36:18 +0000

After more than a year as WIP, finally I finished this crocheted shawl. What can I say, Iâ€™m too lazy to do any craft recently. I feel relieved, because I thought I will never finish this shawl with my very slow speed. I hope my dear friend will be happy with this very late gift [...]

Crochet bukan sekedar merenda

risna — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 15:21:28 +0000

Saya ingin menyatakan bahwa kata kata merenda tidak tepat untuk crochet, karena akan menimbulkan kerancuan baru terhadap merenda kerawang. Alasan saya: KBBI tidak mencantumkan bahwa rajut itu knit dan renda itu crochet. Kalaupun ada penjelasan perajut menggunakan sepasang kawat lurus, perlu diperhatikan knit tidak semata-mata menggunakan sepasang kawat lurus, terkadang bisa menggunakan 4 jarum, atau [...]

Block your crochet piece!

Dari awal merajut saya sudah sering dengar tentang blocking untuk finishing dari hasil rajutan. Blocking ini ada berbagai teknik, tapi teknik apapun itu saya malas melakukannya. Ada berbagai alasan saya untuk tidak melakukannya, tapi alasan utamanya terlalu malas hehe. Belakangan ini saya coba-coba ngeblocking. Awalnya sih cuma nyetrika hasil rajutannya, tapi kok kurang sip rasanya. [...]

I started this on December 2009, but since I have a new baking hobby (it always good to learn a new skill), I just finished it on this new year 2010. I got the pattern from one of Thai magazines that I had for some time. The instructions are in Thai and in charts. I [...]

The problem with having more than 1 blog and a few social networking to maintain is, sometimes you forgot what you published or not published yet. Well some of you might still remember I post about this socks in my previous post. I manage to made a granny jacket with the same color. This baby [...]

Shawl Knit

risna — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 05:28:27 +0000

Do you still remember this work in progress that feels like forever will be WIP? I remember I started to cast on around 2 years ago while I just started learn knitting. After a few drop stitches I gave up. I wanted to rip it off once, I felt the yarn colors are a little [...]

Loom Knitting

About few months ago I went to spotlight Singapore on my way back to Chiang Mai. I saw this loom knitting set but I still hesitated to buy it. I donâ€™t think I really want this tools. The price is quite cheaper compared to the price on Amazon. A few weeks after I arrived in [...]
