New scarf project and a pattern :)

Good morning my friend,

How are you today?

I was so inspired two days ago after seeing the lovely post of Lucy about her new shawl project…so inspired that I took my hook right away and tried the pattern she used…

The pattern is lovely but I wanted to make a long scarf , something like a long neck warmer you know what I mean? and this pattern was kind of “bold” for a scarf…I wanted something “lighter” (Is that a word?)

So, I took an old crochet magazine and transformed my way a pattern made originally for a doily…and I loved it so much……so much…that I crocheted a flower and after another flower etc…with leftover yarns….

…so much that I made right away a graphic pattern for the modified version of the original pattern…

…so much that I want to continue making a long series of flowers to make a very long scarf I can wrap it two or three times around my neck…

so? what do you think? Do you want to join in? You can make a “light” shawl with this pattern too or some coasters maybe 🙂 I have to leave you now and return to my new project 🙂 (so excited about it!!!!!!!!!)

Have a beautiful week end!

Olé Olé blanket: The border

Good evening ladies,
Hope everything is fine !

Let me begin this post by thanking each and every one of you… one by one… every single one… for every sweet comment you left on my Olé Olé blanket post…Your words filled my heart with a big joy and I felt sooo happy reading them 🙂

A BIIIIIIIIIG THANK YOU!

This is, as promised, the graphic pattern of the border of Olé Olé blanket:

You have to make two rows of dc first and for the third row (in red) all you have to do is to crochet by following the steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 (in light blue)

It is very easy, you’ll see as soon as you’ll try 😉

And for you who asked for the pattern of the blanket, I am so sorry…I took it from this french book , but you can find something quite similar in the blog of the wonderful Lucy here. 😉

That’s all my friend!

Hope I made it clear…

Do not hesitate to ask any question, I’ll be more than happy to answer 🙂

Have a great and warm evening!

Angie

Olé Olé blanket: DONE!!!

Good morning my lovelies,

It is so good to see you today and begin with you this lovely week…

My ripple blanket is finished 🙂 I enjoyed so much crocheting it that when I made the last row I felt really sad 🙁

It is a real pleasure to work on….

and now with no more blablabla …some pics for you to enjoy…

I called it Olé Olé blanket because of all this red and black…

You can feel that it is a Spanish blanket…you can carry to dance some Salsa!! Olllllllllé !

Dim: 120×160 cm a good sized blanket to snuggle under 🙂

Here (above) is a pic to show you the border…Do you love it? It is very simple to make…

I’ll try to post a graphic pattern of the border next time if you’re interested…

Wanna jump in this pic? me too 😉

and in this one toooooooooooooooooooooooo………………………..

Before I go I want to show you my plastic box full of yarn ends….

I am in love with all these little treasures that I keep project after project (and I know that I am not alone 🙂 )

So the good news is that on the beautiful blog of Elizabeth Cat she is gonna show us very soon how to make a heart with those cute little yarn ends 🙂 Thank you Elizabeth!

A very last pic of Olé Olé before I go…Hope you loved it as much as I do <3

poncho

Yara’s poncho!

Hello!

I’ve been working on this custom-made poncho during this we and I made the last final row yesterday! It is for a 6 months old princess called Yara 🙂

I know it is not my kind of colors choice but it turned out beautiful and I am very happy with the result 🙂

The colors are so soft and I stitched a 3d crocheted flower on it…

If your interested in making one you can find the very-easy-pattern here 🙂

Hope you like it! I am sure it will be wonderful on little Yara 😉

Have a perfect Wednesday!

Fairy tale blanket: 2 rows and 24 circles!

Good morning lovely ladies,

Thank you for all your sweet comments on my hexagon blanket… they made me sooo happy 🙂

It is so good to see you today after this busy week…

The weather here is gray, it is raining and I have a sort of very bad cold so I am not at the top 🙁

Today, some pics (I took yesterday when the sky was blue) of my wip fairy tale blanket which will become – I hope so- a bedspread for one of the girls…

2 rows and 24 circles done so far 🙂 looking great don’t you think?

Did you see my new big plastic bowl? (I don’t know if it is called a bowl or basket or something else but you understand what I mean I am sure 🙂 ) Isn’t it cute?

It is the perfect “thing” to use at home while crocheting many colors…You can see all the yarns and choose the color that you want …I am very happy with this and I think it is the best “container” I’ve ever had for crochet…and I can tell you that I am addicted to buying this sort of things 🙂 hehe

I prefer buying yarns and baskets and things for the house etc rather than buying clothes for me 🙂 I think we are all here like this, don’t you?

and now I am working on a custom-made-order of a very cute “thing” for a small princess… I hope I’ll show it to you done this week… so, stay tuned 😉

and have a lovely warm monday!

Angie
