Lovely Val

Hey Everybody!
Ah what an evenful day it was yesterday at work! A friend of mine visited at work (which i always like), the fire alarm went off because of the bad storm and some nasty lightning (everybody and everything is safe), had the best laugh of my life with my friends, and made two people very very happy! Valerie and me.
Let me tell you about her a bit.. Val is one of the best people i know, perfectionist, always giggling, always in high spirits (as far as i have seen), and oh my! she makes the most beautiful flower arrangements.. and she even taught me how to make a bow. Yes. I admit. I do not know how to make a bow. now get over it. :P.
So, Val.
Dont you think she deserves a nice little gift? So i made her a crochet and bead necklace set. Tadaa...

And i gave it to her at work, and she LOVED it! :)
Doesnt she look gorgeous with those pretty blue eyes?

Val wanted to have a necklace similar to the one my other Friend/coworker who bought the necklace from me. Katelyn.
Here are some pictures of the other one:

 

And thats Katelyn! Adorable little thing.

And thats how my day ended. Happy Val, and more than happy me :)
Hence proved.
(totally reminds me of those math problems lol.)
ok bye.

Layered Triangle shawl

Hello hello hello!
Lot of things have happened in my life since my last post. Had a mini craft fair, joined a new fun job, had my first dance performance, made so many friends, gave (and still giving) driving road tests, birthday gifts, send off gifts, just-because-you-visited-us gifts, so on and so forth. I will (may be) try to share all the projects.
So, for today, let me share with you, a project which has challenged me physically, mentally and LINGUALLY!
Physical challenge because apparently i was crocheting too much so developed pain in my wrist (and ouch it hurts!).
So anyway, moving on..
Lingually challenged because..I had seen this shawl so much on Pinterest and so many other places-- pattern should be very easily available.. right? well yeah, i did have a STEP BY STEP video pattern..(but wait!) it was in a language i just could not follow. So i Juuussstttt blindly (tried) to follow the tutorial.
The shawl came ABSOLUTELY stunning and of course, it had to be! Because it was for my gorgeous Mom..

If you want to try this shawl,
Here are the original Video links :

Im thinking i should may be translate and re-write the pattern in English. What do you think? Should i do it?
Love,
K.
