A bride, who counts crocheting as a hobby, used her skill to prepare for her wedding, according to the report on “Pusuan Na ‘Yan” of “State of the Nation.”

Armed with a hook and a pile of yarn, Alyssa Marie Madriaga learned how to crochet and with her skill was able to put up a business.

She is able to create colorful sweaters, berets, and dresses.

It takes three hours for her to finish basic designs. But for dresses, it takes her 7 to 14 hours of crocheting.

For her wedding, Alyssa decided to crochet her bridesmaids’ dresses and her own wedding gown too.

“Walo ang bridesmaids ko nun. So, nag start ako ng June na gumawa ng mga dress ng bridesmaids ko, natapos ko lahat nakumpleto ko lahat ng July. Bakit hindi ituloy-tuloy ko na lang na full crochet na yung kasal ko,” she said. — BAP, GMA Integrated News
