'Plumerias'



I never painted a Plumeria before. 
Nor i knew what this flower was.
I just followed instruction from a video
about watercolour painting. 
I really love the colours! 
But, if i paint this flower again, 
i'll try to make it better. 
The background is painted with 
watercolour pencils.
I really love the Albrecht Dürer line 
from Faber Castell.
They are amazing!!!
So, what do you think?




'View from the valley'


A landscape in watercolours. 
I keep trying new things. 
I think i should not try them all together, 
but i just can't help it!!! 
I just like it!!!
So, what do you think of this painting?



'Hummingbird'


I really love this painting!
It is inspired by someone really dear to me!
This is my first watercolour hummingbird. 
What do you think?


'Tulipes'


Tulips in watercolour.
That's my first time using this technique.
It's wet on dry and i just had to
spread the colour and let it faint on the edges.
What do you think?

'Aurora Borealis'

I always wanted to paint
the Northern Lights!
Watercolour was an easy way to do it.
There are several different ways
to paint this painting.
I might try again, using a different way.
But i think this went quite well! 
What do you think?
It looks a little pale in the pictures. 
The colours are a little bit more 
vibrant than this...

'Poppies'


That's the first time i paint poppies. 
Painting them in watercolour was
easier than i thought it will be! 
I really like this painting! 
It might not be perfect, 
but i think it's quite good!
 What do you think?

'Raspberries'


This was a lot of fun to paint!
It's easy, fast and satisfying! 
I think watercolours are turning to be 
my favorite way to paint! 
What do you think about this painting?


'Snowy River'



I don't think i have done
something like this before.
Painting the river was
a little easier than i expected.
The picture is a little messy,
but it's watercolour.
It is not supposed to be perfect. 
It's supposed to be fun! 
What do you think?

'Cloudy Sky'


I am trying watercolours again!
It's been a long time 
but now i am painting again
and I LOVE it!!!
So, what do you think!

Woollen Cap wc008 (Women's peak cap hat)

This is another one peak hat. 
I really like this pattern. 
I have tried different colours 
with this pattern. 
They look really good! 
What do you think?


Woollen Cap wc007

This cap reminds me of candy corn!
It is a slouchy cap
I made this one with knitting needles, 
which is something i do not usually do. 
Most of my woollen caps 
are made with the crochet hook. 
I became a little bit more slouchy 
than i wanted it to be :-P 
So, what do you think?

Woollen Cap wc006

I really like this cap. 
It is slightly slouchy. 
It is made with puff stitches. 
It might seem like is has a lot of gaps 
between the stitches, 
but it is really warm and cozy. 
So, what do you think???

Woollen Cap wc005

This is a slightly slouchy cap
made in sea colours.
It is made with a half double crochet stitch.
The brim is made with 
front post double crochet stitches. 
This is a fluffy and warm cap. 
Of course it is already gone. 
The lady who is wearing it is my best friend.
She got it as soon as i finished it. 
:-P 
So, what do you think???

Woollen Cap wc 004 (Granny Stripes Hat)

This pattern might look familiar
to those who crochet.
It is the typical stitch of the granny squares. 
Only it is made on a cap :-P 
Again, i found the pattern at the 
"How to Crochet - The Crochet Crowd"
channel in Youtube. 
I really like their videos. 
They are so helpful for begginers 
like myself! 
So, what do you think of this hat???

Woollen Cap wc003 (5 Star Beanie)

This is another one pattern i found at the
"How to Crochet - The Crochet Crowd"
channel in Youtube.
The first time i made this, i did it wrong.
The pattern uses single crochets 
and i was useing double crochets. 
The outcome was very nice 
but it was not a 5 star beanie. 
:-P
This is the beanie 
made in the right way. 
What do you think???
By the way,
if you like the patterns
and want to check the 
"How to Crochet - The Crochet Crowd"
channel in Youtube, 
just let me know. 
It's quite easy 
to find their channel, 
but, if you do not want to search, 
i can just send you the link ;-)
