Vintage hand towel

Good day to all the lovely people out there!

Hope you have been happy and fine. We are having our summer season here - its hot, humid and good...

What have i been up to? Crocheting some vintage lace here. Oh how i wish i had a sewing machine, the joy of convenience is few feet away. Literally, i would do anything for some space in my house, which could fit the machine. But we live in HongKong where space IS a luxury :(

So, the next best thing - hand sewed this towel from my fabric stash. I replenished my stock recently and will post the pics soon..






You would need a metallic crochet hook for this project as you need to do the SC through the ric-rac and metallic hook acts as a needle in piercing the ric-rac.Doesn't it give a vintage feel to the towel?


Loved the fabric too. Notice how it has a self matte finish to it..Beautiful!!


Added a loop with ric-rac and joined it with a wooden button and you have a vintage hand towel ready to use.



An easy project, my mind is now swimming with other possibilities....off i go to attend to my creative spurt..whilst the little people are taking a nap :)

Have a great and colorful day,

Love.
