Gratitude #6 - Crochet ~@~Bohemian Maxi Dress ~@~

If I couldn't crochet, I'd probably go crazy.  I'm grateful that even though I don't always have money to buy more supplies, or have the drive to make myself known so I can make money, I can still crochet.  If I have to take an old project apart, I will.  If I have to unravel a store bought sweater, or cut up an old T-shirt, I will.  I don't care.  As long as I can crochet, I don't care.

But Alhamdullillaah I was able to buy some local 100% cotton thread just before Ramadan started.  Slowly, little by little, I've been working on something that manifested from my own desires.  A combination of wanting to go to the beach in a bohemian cover up, and wanting to get married.  This is what I got...




 I'm very pleased.  Mashaallaah.  But it still isn't finished, I still have to weave in all the loose threads, and reinforce the straps a but more so they don't stretch or dig in my shoulders.  But I'm much too distracted by my newest project, which I started late last night, to do that.
