i finished the white scarf two days ago. yay! this scarf is made as a birthday gift for my mom. her birthday is exactly two months from now, on the 22nd of July. so, i kinda finished the scarf too early.
she hops between Jakarta and Melbourne quite often, so i thought she would be able to wear it during Melbourne’s winter…
she’s an avid crocheter. i learned how to crochet from her when i was on the 3rd grade. i’m not sure if she remembers that, though. then, when i was still living in the NYC, she made a crocheted blanket for my birthday. you can sorta see it on the couch in this picture. there is that, and a table cloth for our dining table, which is not in the picture. those are the larger pieces i have from her.
well, i can’t even finish my own blanket (which has reduced into a throw), so i’ll just go with a little scarf. i’m also a little worried that she would inspect the scarf and see the little mistakes i did… haha.

I love it. I really must tackle my crochet demons so I can produce something like that!
Nice work Thal, it will be a perfect birthday present for her. the warmth of your heart while doing it is there.
lutuu… Thal..ngerajut itu susah ga sih? 😛
Hi. Your crochet items are the best I have seen. You are a wonderful & creative designer & you truly have a talent from God! Also, I love the white scarf you finished. Would you consider emailing me a copy of the pattern? I will await your answer. Thank you! JoyceBlue – joycelundberg@comcast.net
Wow, that’s really pretty and well done! I wish I could do something like that as well.
aww, thanks! btw, do you still want the pattern?
thank you, it means a lot coming from you 🙂
gampaaang! dan therapeutic 🙂 merajut itu kayak naik sepeda… waktu belajarnya perlu kesabaran dan ketekunan. tapi, kalo udah bisa, ga bakal pernah lupa dan rasanya kayak second nature!
thank you 🙂 will do!
thank you, denise 🙂
gue pengennya elo ngajarin, tapi mungkin belajar sendiri aja kali yeee dari buku. Bisa buat teraphy ya? hahaha.. I kinda need that 😉
hayuuuu! gue seneng ngajarin! tapi gimana caranya ya? elo mesti kesini… hahaha. btw, bukannya nyokap elo bisa crochet?
lama-lama gue pindah ke singapore aja deh 😛 Nyokap kayaknya bisa sih, tapi beda kota juga huhuhu…
(hmmm.. apa ngerecokin Chili aja ya?) hehehe
iya, chili aja. mumpung satu kota. kalo buat crochet + jait, minta ajarin chili. tapi kalo knitting, mintanya ama naomi. dia lebih bisa.
What a lovely scarf, could you email me the pattern please? This is just what I’m looking for as a wedding gift for my friend.
