I too get bored very easily with a lot of patterns which is why I improvise, combine, etc. Also, I tend to be impatient and so can't follow pattern instructions meticulously - so these are my excuses! :) I hope to update this website a bit more often after all the Christmas crocheting. I've been wanting to try those incredible Irish crochet pieces from Belarussia (I think that's where they come from ...) - but crochet really demands plenty of time and attention! Good luck with your work, let me know how it turns out. If you're on Ravelry.com you can find me as "korakora." Cheers! Fatima Hi Lee Peng, Thanks for visiting!

I stumbled upon your website recently and since had been dropping by every now and then. I like the way you combine designs to make it your own and I would like to make this top that you had improvised on. To avoid boredom, I prefer my projects to be a combination of patterns but this is seldom found in books. I am not confident in my own "design" :) but looking at how you managed to turn them into gorgeous pieces gives me encouragement. I love irish crochet - which I started learning recently - but have yet to finish a project as it is too time consuming. Hi Fatima, I am Lee Peng from Malaysia.
