Charity Crochet Projects in Dubai

A while ago, I contributed to a charity group who make soft cocoons for newborn babies. They needed extra hands to finish an order and I volunteered to help their wonderful group.

It is a Facebook public group called Small and Might Babies Crochet that help and showcase crochet projects for charity. Here is their leaflet


A crochet pack includes 2 balls of yarn which are more than enough to finish the project, 1 4mm crochet hook and the instructions leaflet for the pattern. They also posted a tutorial video for the pattern on YouTube to make following pattern instructions easier AND they will be launching their own website soon, so stay tuned!

If you are interested in a charity project related to crochet, this is a great one because you have the option either to contribute by your crochet skills or just financially. It was a fulfilling experience for me to join their mission and I love their spirits.

Here is the finished look of my contribution


Baby Cocoons
Later, they add the buttons so this would be the final look

Just Cute!

Free Pattern for a Granny Square Coaster

Hello guys! Today I am sharing my first free pattern of Granny Square Coasters. You can play with the colors as you wish, either make it multi-colored like my picture or make it all from one color. I just love pastel colors, they give out a smooth sense of serenity that goes with that cup of coffee/tea in the morning. Anyways, without further ado, here comes the pattern (written in US terms): Material:  4 mm crochet hook. Nako Saten (Straw, Light Blue, Coral Reef, Quartz, Blue Glass, Romantic Pink) Tapestry Needle.

Free Pattern Wrist Warmers with Stone Washed XL from Scheepjes

Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted here (again). It's really hard to get things in order, but it's best not to give up and just change tactics. I am taking my time to get my ducks in a row so that I don't lower any expectations. So today I am writing about one of my recent projects, which is wrist warmers with Stone Washed XL from Scheepjes. You have no idea how good this yarn is. It's made up of 70% cotton and 30% acrylic so it's so soft. I had no problem at all crocheting with it. Sometimes, with some yarn, the plies can get separated and the strand gets split as you crochet. So I would highly recommend Stone Washed XL yarn for beginners with a 5 mm crochet hook, which is the recommended size hook on the label too. I also love fingerless wrist warmers/gloves because you get to use the tips of your fingers as you type on your laptop or write with your pen. Basically, your hands would still function and you get to exercise your sense of t...

New Ties New Projects

I am happy to announce that I started collaborating with YarnsDubai.com as their full-time crochet specialist. Yaaaaayyyy!! It has been 3 years since I was in the job market and it's been so long to start work again. However, I am happy I am doing something I love and am passionate about. Last week was my first and I cannot wait to finish many projects, learn new tricks, and influence others to take up crochet. I am planning to teach crochet with YarnsDubai.com in courses and workshops soon. We are aiming to raise awareness and educate people not only about crochet, but also knitting, cross-stitching, and other things. I hope I will be able to provide the right guidance to beginners when it was given to me long time ago. I am also in the process of making tutorial videos on my YouTube channel to help those who cannot physically come to the classes/workshops. Besides, there will be videos for projects suitable for all levels of experience from time to time as well as simp...
