I stumbled upon a post by @theartisangroup, and I fell in love with their ideas, as they intend to engage the community with the activities of artisans who are steemians. I am so in.

For more info on what the group is about, follow and read up articles on @theartisangroup and I am sure you would not regret that.

Note that you have to be an artisan to join, and luckily for me, I am an artisan gifted in making a lot of things which includes making Ankara bags, leather shoes, and crocheting.

My best skill out of all is crocheting, and it is a process of creating fabric using a crochet hook to interlock loops of yarn, thread or strands of other materials.

I have decided to show some of the things I have made. I hope you have fun viewing them.

I made that for my roommate four years ago, and she used that picture on the front page of her convocation jotter. I felt so proud of myself (lol).

I had an event to attend one day and needed to get a new sandal. Since my feet are long, I rarely get my size, and that day, after searching round the whole market, I got back home sad, but then, the idea came to me to make a sandal for myself, so I took out an old sandal, cut it up, took a yarn of wool and made that.
