As the hook dances over the yarn in a beautiful rhythm,

Carefully crafted pieces unfold,

Bringing a treasure to life.

Each stitch weaving a unique tale,

Telling an indelible story,

The process, a very tough one.

Frogging, the crocheter’s greatest foe delays,

Passion, serving as a motivation,

Procrastination acting as a barrier,

But still doesn’t hinder the process.

Internationality remains the key to every successful crochet piece.


One might wonder what magic yarn can create.

Mister hook, it's undeniable partner, 

The stitch marker keeping track of patterns,

Scissors, serving as a trusted ally, 

Trimming ends with precision and care,

Yarn needle, a valuable friend joining pieces rhythmically.

In a beautiful symphony, a masterpiece is created.

An aesthetically pleasing wonder!


Let alone the versatile nature of crochet 

The amigurumi, beautiful stuffed toys,

Colourful granny squares, accessories.

The beauty is mesmerizing,

Just like the coat of many colours.

Her addictive nature, our old women’s delight,

Her intricate pattern, a wonder unto many.

An unspoken symbol of love.


The project is finally complete,

A sense of accomplishment.

A treasure trove, a testament of creativity.

The crochet’s beauty, a tale of hard work.

A legacy of undiluted love and patience.

A tapestry woven, vibrant and bright. 

For in this art, true essence lies.
