Pop Tops and Crochet

poptops_crochet

… a fashion alliance?! Oh my, I’m speechless!

Feast your eyes upon this breathtaking design by Ronaldo Fraga for the one of Brasilian fashion week!

There’s something about pop tops that makes people want to crochet them together, like here.

Make sure to visit this amazing Brazilian site (in English) to find stylish bags of pop tops crocheted together.

The same site offers a poptopflower tutorial here and you’ve MUST to see these pop top fashions of the ’70’s!

SIMPLY ADORABLE!!!

Крышечки с колечком от колы/пепси и вязание крючком в одном проекте?! Снимаю шляпу!!!

Только посмотрите на этот восхитительный дизайн Роландо Фрага для одного бразильского fashion шоу

Здесь вы найдете стильные сумки, сделанные на основе этой идеи

Также вы можете посетить этот бразильский сайт (in English), где вы найдете много интересного об этом виде исскуства.

Я в восторге!!! Изумительно, не правда ли?!

Happy Easter

Another fun collaboration with my sweet friend and Amazing designer from Germany!

It’s always a pleasure to work with Gaby and we got many fun collections, but I think this one is my favorite so far!

I love everything about it… colors, style, pictures!

Еще одна наша совместная работа с моей подругой и дизайнером из Германии!

Всегда удовольствие работать с Gaby, но думаю, что эта мини-коллекция одна из моих любимых!

Мне нравиться все – цветовая гамма, стиль, фотографии.

Multilingual support!

By friends requests and for all my dear readers in Russian I’ve added support for Russian language.

So from now on some posts are going to be in both languages. Not direct translation at not the same text, but I’ll try to stay in sync.

Though I have to admit that my English is never going to be as fluent as my Russian 😉

Всем привет!!! Просили? Вот, пожайлуста!!!! 😉 По многочисленным просьбам трудящихся, русский таки был добавлен! Украинский возможен, но уже за дополнительное вознаграждение 🙂

Ravelry, oh ravelry…

RavelryLogo I’ve promised an explanation of my absence… and I promise I will back to my normal schedule and still blog, but OMG, my online time is definitely being sucked by Ravelry right now. Have you been there? Do you have your invite? Go, run, sign up for an invite and then go about your life and have patience. Many, many people are waiting for invites, but rest assured, ravelry is well worth the wait. It is a truly amazing knitting and crocheting community! I LOVE ravelry! I’ve met so many nice and talented people on there in the various groups. Can you believe, I’m a member of 28 raverly’s groups and truly enjoy it! 😉

RavelryWeb This is the place where you can have a notebook with all of your projects – WIPS & FOs, with photos (from flickr) and details (yarn, pattern, pattern modifications). A place where you can have all of your stash yarn listed with photos and details (yes, details of fiber, manufacturer, yardage, weight, how many skeins you have). Oh and one of my favorite things about ravelry… searching! You can search to see what other ravelry members have made with a certain yarn OR you can search to see what yarns others have used to made a certain pattern. Here’s an awesome sneak peek that explains it all better than I could and a link to Unraveled, the ravelry blog, if you want to read even more.

Oh, and on the other note… I’ve done some patterns for my halters tops, which are testing now and will available for sale pretty soon!
