Gothic Fingerless Gloves

I made this pair of gloves over a year ago. They are soft and warm, which means they can complete everyday outfit during cool autumn days, but they will also look great with some fancy, gothic dress or corset.
To create this project I used black acrylic yarn with a thin golden thread, which gives that lacy piece a nice sparkling effect, but you can also use cotton, wool or some stretchy yarn to make such gloves. 

If you would want me to prepare a photo tutorial for this project, please leave a comment.

Sunny tunic

Today I'd like to show you my newest project.

It's a very simple, nature inspired tunic or dress, if you prefer.
I made it of thick acrylic yarn. 
I'd say it's quite universal size. It looks good on a tank top or any type of neutral colour simple dress and vest.

I placed sunflower motifs on front and back of my tunic and I also added decorative border at the bottom to balance composition of colours and shapes.
The whole project spontaneously appeared in my head. I didn't use any kind of pattern for making this piece.

International Octopus Day!

8th October we celebrate International Octopus Day.

Take a moment and learn more about these majestic and very mysterious creatures.

They are natural born huggers as well!

Hug your octopus if you have one. If you don't, you can hug one of my cute, sleepy crocheted octopuses.

Halloween gothic beanie

Halloween night is near, but you still have time to prepare some simple, yet unique and not very expensive costume to impress your friends and family.

Today I'd like to show you something I made recently.
It's a set of crocheted beanies. They are very light, soft and cozy also very easy to make. It is definitely something for beginning crocheters.
If you want to create a vampire, medieval witch or evil princess outfit, this project will be perfect for you.

If you like my gothic beanies, perhaps you'd like to get a photo tutorial to make these simple hats by yourself. Good news! I'm working on such tutorial and I will post it on this blog shortly.
