My inspiration on colour for decor

I have a confession to make; most of my decor in living room is white, grey and blue, although I love colours . I have heard from the  Jain Muni Acharya Mahapragya  that we can breath the colours while concentrating on different parts of the body.I have also heard that the colour of clothes you wear is directly linked to your chakras, In essence, if you wish to activate a particular chakra, you need to wear clothing of the corresponding colour.

CITRUS BLUES

Santorini COLOUR

WINTER HUES

And today I have found a site that focus on colour palettes; you can find a plethora of inspiration for projects by diving into the visual feast that is design seeds 

SPRING BLOOMS

TEA TONES

With their lush and vibrant palettes and dreamy photography, I am sure there is a colour palette to suit everyone’s décor and dresses. I think that design seeds will be 'super inspirational ' and helpful in inspiring a colour palette for a crocheted decor project.

PEACEFUL TONES

I have to ask ...... What is your favorite colour in your décor ?

Please comment while visiting…………

A picture is definitely worth a thousand words – and I’m  in love with a few of these pictures that show just how lovely the sky  color is

in the picture above clouds came in to over shadow the colour of sky,but still The gray sky looks beautiful out of the clouds

crochet with Yog..

Yes these days i used to crochet while listening Samkhya yog  by Acharya Pradumn Ji Maharaj


Let see...about it

If there is no mind than there is no possibility to get involved with worldly attractions. Each sense of Human being has its own area of application but mind have to play an important role in the process of perception of senses.


For example let’s consider our eyes; when we are looking at a beautiful scene around our mind is also involved and if we pick mind out of the scene than no scene will be perceived by our eyes even we are continuously looking at the said scene. Image may there on retina but we will be not aware of it.

Now let’s take scripture point of view; shrimad bhagwad geeta says “Nature – Prakriti is working with its three virtues – Satto Gunna, Razo Gunna and Tamogunna. There are three major area of nature. Actually this is classification of worldly attractions.

Nature is offering worldly attractions to senses. Attractions are there and also senses are there but event is not happening. This is because mind is not there. This is a beautiful process of involvement and it is natural only.

Worldly Attractions ß +Mind+--> Senses = Involvement

This involvement brings desires and these desires bring actions and material in the life. And besides this there is a spiritual law that one attraction brings others attractions like one value bring other values; it mean desires are interdependent also. And our journey of soul gets involved in worldly attractions ultimately and we forget the purpose of our life.

When we understand this process of desires, mind and material and we also understand that we can stop all this with the help of mind only; this is the mind which is creating new desires and also brings material with the help of nature. That’s why almost all religions, all meditation techniques all secret techniques are only working on mind.

The one who understand the process and stop the process by just aware of it is called a “Sankhya Yogi.”

This is the theory of Samkhya yog    XOXO

I heart these Speeches...........Fat bottem bag

I started this tradition a few years ago, and I'm going to keep it going.  Each Swami_Vivekananda’s B day, I spend some time listening to the speeches he made, and the speeches about his death.  They inspire me to be a better person and remind me what an important day it is...  Enjoy.

Colorful Scrap Yarn Wavy Blanket

Unique pattern with left-over yarn pieces

My next, latest crochet obsession has been a pattern called the Groovy- Ghan.

What do you need:

a crochet hook (I use a 5mm hook)

yarn (I use Stylecraft Special DK)

a pair of scissors

a darning needle

Let’s get started! :)

1. Start by chaining 40, plus 1 for turning so we keep an even stitch count. (this is just for the example; when you make an afghan the count doesn’t really matter! just make it as long as you would like the afghan to be wide)

So: ch 41

2. Turn and work a sc in each stitch, by putting your hook in the bump on the back of the chain. This creates a neater finish. You could also use a chainless single crochet foundation stitch; if you choose to do so, you can skip step one.

Continue until you reach the end of the chain. Cut the yarn and pull through the loop on your hook.

So: sc 40 (40)

3. Make another row of sc’s, but don’t turn your work! We are working from right to left here, every single round. Start with a standing single crochet by making a slip knot on your hook and starting the sc like you normally would, and crochet in the back loops only. (remind yourself to crochet all sc’s in the blo’s from now on)

So: blo, sc around (40)

4. Now it’s time to change color. We’re going to do this after every row from now on. With the new color, starting on the right hand side, start with a standing single crochet stitch, and sc 5, back loops only. Then make a double crochet but put your hook through the stitch in the second row below, using the ridge of the front loop. Make 10 single crochets and make another front loop double crochet in the second row blow, and repeat this till the end of your work. (when making the dc, skip a stitch when making the next sc. the dc counts as one stitch)

So: blo, sc 5, *fldc in 2nd row below, sc 10* (40)

5. Change color again, start with a standing single crochet stitch on the right hand side and single crochet 6 times before making the front loop double crochet. If you look at your work, you can see that you are moving the double crochet one stitch to the left on each row, so they sit next to each other! :) You no longer have to count your stitches; just single crochet in the dc from the previous round and then make a front loop dc next to that.

So: blo, sc 6, *fldc in 2nd row below, sc 10* (40)

If you continue in this fashion you’ll quickly see the dc’s creating diagonal lines across your work. And that’s all there is to it! :) Easy, right?

My verson will be fallowed next after amonth or.........right.

XOXO
