I recently was commissioned to crochet five lacy scarves! What an exciting crochet project!
Here they all are! I enjoyed crocheting each one of them, and most importunely the lady who commissioned them was highly satisfied with my work, which makes very, very happy!
It is still summer in the Northern hemisphere, but I am already working on fall/winter crochet projects!
This chunky lacy hat is the variation of the baby lacy hat that I made a couple of years ago. Since then, people have been asking me how to adjust that pattern for the adult size.
The pattern is very easy, and there are only nine rounds.
The yarn is Bernat Softee Chunky in color Forest. Only one skein is needed for the hat. Hook size K (6.5 mm)
I loved how the hat turned out, so I decided to make a matching scarf. I wasn't sure how chunky lacy fabric will drape when wearing the scarf, but it drapes quite nicely!
The scarf took three skeins of Bernat Softee Chunky yarn, and the color that I used is Seagreen.
Happy Summer! I hope you are enjoying it! I certainly am!
After a year and a half of lockdowns, social distancing and isolations, it feels so wonderful to be out and about again! I really enjoy going on day trips exploring my state!
Last month I visited Lincoln, a small town in Northern California. Walking downtown, I noticed this stunning, vintage, crochet tablecloth outside of a small business!
I snapped a picture, which I later shared on the community tab of my Youtube channel!
And so many people loved it and encouraged me to create a similar one!
And here is the tablecloth of my own! Yes, yes, I know, it's not as gorgeous as the one above, but considering that it's my first attempt ever at designing a tablecloth, I think it's not that bad!
I wanted to keep it simple because like I said, it's my first attempt, and I didn't want to take forever to make it or to get too overwhelmed!
Instead of using crochet thread, I used 100% mercerized cotton yarn (category 3). Specifically I used Patons Grace. To make a five by five motifs tablecloth (about 40 by 40 inches), 7 skeins of yarn needed.
Each motif is quite simple and has only five rounds. The motifs are joined together in the fifth round. Then in the space between the joined motifs I added fill-in lace.
Do you see the mistake I made in my tablecloth in the picture bellow? When I noticed it, it was way too late to fix it! Oh well!
I wrote a detailed pattern for this tablecloth and I filmed a video tutorial as well!
The written pattern is available in my Etsy and Ravelry shops!
