With the current pandemic situation happening around the world, let’s keep our hopes high and pray that this phase of virus infection will come to pass soon. Since Singapore is having our circuit breaker aka “3/4 lockdown”, I finally have time to pick up my hooks again. And since today it’s Good Friday, let’s start this weekend on a good note with a FREE Crochet Pattern that is super easy to make. :)
