Checkered Stole
I had been looking at this mini square pattern for quite sometime. I finally decided to go for making this stole. Deciding on the length took time. Finally decided to go for the 70 inches as I read that this is the most common length. I am totally inspired and deciding on a next pattern!

Pink for October
I had recently received a request for crocheted breast cancer ribbons. When I thought about it, it sounded very easy. So I am thinking, good idea and easily done.
Ofcourse I was right about the good idea but so wrong about the easy part. Crocheting the ribbon itself was very easy. Stitched is too with little bit of struggle. Now for the last part - using the stiffener. I normally dilute the stiffener a lot but this time I had to use almost undiluted to get the right stiffness and then do blocking to get the right shape.
But efforts well spent!
