WIP Wednesday: Tunisian ten-stitch blanket

March 4, 2020syHandsblanket, boho spirit, crochet, cygnet, tunisian, wipwednesday

Round and Round… This one started out as an experiment, just to see if I could do it. I started out unsure and not counting properly, learning how to do the mitred corners as I went. Now, there are stitch markers every ten stitches and my mitres are getting better and better. This WIP was…

March 1, 2020syHearts#endloneliness, craft, patreon

We’ve Launched on Patreon! As you may know, I have been volunteering at Unravel & Unwind CIC for several years now. But I’m not sure if I’ve ever blogged about what I do there, or what Unravel & Unwind actually is. Unravel & Unwind provides space and time for creative people to come together and…

Sock Saturday: Diamond Geezer Socks

February 29, 2020syHandscrochet, indiedyers, sock Saturday, socks, the crochet project

One and done! I am absolutely thrilled with this sock pattern. I got it for free during socktober, but I only just got round to it in February. These socks worked up quickly and I enjoyed the opportunity to use one solid colour and one of my beautiful hand-dyed hanks for this pair. The solid…

Floral Friday: a chunky one!

February 28, 2020syHandsribbon flower, tutorial, youtube

Many Loops! This one really threw me for a loop! This is one of the flowers that are made by stringing individual petals onto the thread and cinching it closed. When I first tried it, I used the wrong end of each petal and it just wasn’t working… I looked more carefully at the video…

February 21, 2020syHandsfloral, ribbon flower, tutorial, video, youtube

Still enjoying the Journey Here’s another Floral Friday! Thanks go yet again to Merry Craft for this fantastic YouTube tutorial. This beautiful flower is made of 2.5cm ribbon, and you’ll need a button or a few beads for the centre. I like the end result of this one. It’s fairly simple, but the result is…

Floral Friday: Beaded Petals

February 14, 2020syHandsfloral, ribbon flower, tutorial, video

Before the beads… Thanks again go to Merry Craft for this Floral Friday offering. I love the flowers that have more folds in the petals. It really brings out the beauty of the ribbon and also makes a sturdier result. This has to be my favourite to date! My pearl shank buttons are still in…

WIP Wednesday: Half motifs started…

February 12, 2020syHandscrochet, crochet-a-long, janie crow, wip, wipwednesday

Sixteen Halves… I have started to make the half-motifs on Part One of Janie Crow’s Climbing Rose CAL. I have made 16 hexagonal motifs, and now the halves have begun! Rosary Style, as I call it, is working really well for me, so I have threaded my first rounds onto another string and I’m continuing…

Floral Friday: Six Loopy Petals…

January 31, 2020syHandsfloral, flower, ribbon flower, youtube

Different Buttons are ok actually… I needed to use regular two-holed buttons because I lost my shank buttons, but with a design like this, it is actually better to be able to hide the very middle of the flower, so I guess losing the buttons wasn’t such a curse after all! It does mean that…
