Hi Everyone,

After a pretty Long break, here i am back with my crochet post....

I was away from crochet and blogging for an year and finally i took my hook back from my treasure box and did a doily CAL, which i will post in the coming days... now i am happy that i could finally manage to make a post in 2016.

Made a crocheted Garland... a Malai / Mala. . Used my weekend free time and finished it in two days spending few hours everyday..... i was not out of touch!!! except the speed ;-)
