Go Mimi + Personal Update

I've been really, really quiet in Ravelry for two months now. But something hit me and went ahead and browse through the patterns again. A lot of great and really helpful features were added and what I love most is where you can find free patterns posted by other ravelers. How cool is that?

I also searched for people in Ravelry who is currently living in the Philippines. The number almost doubled since I joined the community but what's interesting is the column that showcases this month's featured ravelers. And I'm so proud to say that one of them is my crochet buddy and a proud Filipino, Mimi.

That's Mimi (mimicat) in the third photo.

Congratulations, Mimi! Otanjoubi Omedetou!

Project Update:

I failed the third attempt in the sunbathing bikini. It was disappointing because I was so into it while making the project but the pattern isn't really for me. I mean the pattern is good, no doubt about that but won't fit in my body type. It's too big despite all the modifications I've made.

Anyway, I'm currently working on Obarappu Sukato now, a pattern I've found in Ravelry Yay! I miscalculated on the hook size and knowing me, I seldom make gauges for patterns. It looks a size bigger but it would work out well. I can feel it. And I'm trying to remove the Queen of Starters attitude in me so I'm finishing this one despite that mistake. Hopefully I could wear this on my meet-up with Jinky on her vacation here on May. Looking forward to it Jinky!

Other Project:

The reason behind why I have no progress with my handiwork recently is that I'm busy playing with my new toy. I think I will also make this as my primary Flickr account.

I'm still learning so pardon the bad photography. :)
