Welcome to Special Handmade Gifts!

Hi! My name's Cecile Cinco but you can call me C5, for short. This blog now exists because I would like to share what I have done with my hands, either by giving away my own patterns and finished products, or selling them. It takes a lot of time and effort and those two aspects alone are precious. When I give something away, though, it will be from the bottom of my heart.

Selling what I have done is my way of sustaining my addiction, at the same time make something available to you that you might only find here. I love creating but I also get bored easily so I tend to do different things at the same time. Many times I do not use a pattern (spontaneous crafting) so if I sell them, you get one of a kind.

Lately, though, I've taken into consideration the possibility of people wanting the same thing so I make a mental note of how I do it in the hope to create a pattern.

For the past 3 years, I've been drawn to yarn so I do knitting, crocheting (and variations of it), tatting and weaving.
