The reason why this blog is created is because Multiply.com is shutting down & all posts will be removed. Some posts here are back-dated from Aug 2004 - Aug 2012! I'm just doing a screen-shot & re-posting slowly cos it ain't easy to import every single photo. Therefore, only thumbnails are available for viewing, which also explains the white background & the little note at the end.

Milkfrost Handicraft | Crochet Labubu Dress

I have been wanting to crochet a dress for my Labubu & finally got down to making one after talking about it for more than a month 😁

Bought this yarn hook for quite sometime already but end up don't know how to use it.
Anyway, I started on the tube with this mixed color yarn.Changed to white for the bottom of the dress.Looks a little short to me
So I added on another row. Contemplating to add shoulder strap but decided to remain it as a Tube Dress
Tada~~ completes in less than 2 hours
Then I realized it can double up as hat too! Many I should do a hat using either white or the mixed color yarn.

Milkfrost Handicraft | Crochet Headband

Since I managed to successfully crochet a granny square, I decided to try using the same method to crochet a headband
Using the crochet & stitch on the go method I found from youtube, managed to stitch 2 granny squares as I go along
From the youtube tutorial, it's supposed to be 8 squares but I do it with 9 squares & shorter tying string and I successfully crochet my first headband! Test fit and I think it looks quite nice, a little retro! Maybe I should make another one, but with a slightly thinner width.

Milkfrost Handicraft | Crochet Cup Holder

Started a new crochet project while I'm on staycation

Using the Starbucks X Ang Ku Kueh Girl cup holder as the size guide but a shorter handle strap as the weight of the drink will pull it a little.

Previously did a cup holder w/o strap, so this time I add on a strap
Test fit using my Guess blink blink cup but the strap seems a bit too short

Thus, I test fit again with a 16oz takeaway cup at work, fill it up with a bit of water & it seems good
Put it in use to takeaway my drink from MOS Burger & yeah, it fits pretty well. So I can now go tabao bubble tea without using their bags!

Milkfrost Handicraft | Crochet Bag Strap

Another impromptu crochet project. Got inspired by video I came across on tiktok.
Bought some lobster hooks from Shopee.But turned out to be too big & the hook is quite difficult to attachCrochet it directly onto the hook & work my way up.Added some black onto it but somehow, I find the black part too thick.So I reduce the black color portion.But oops, I didn't measure it properly & end up being a little too long for the black bags that I wanna use it on.Maybe I'll do a shorter one next time when I have the mood.
