Newsletter May 2010 - A crocheted flower brooch
What better time of year for flowers than spring? Crochet lends itself beautifully to a number of things, and one of those is jewelry. Necklaces, bracelets and brooches. I love making these small accessories between larger projects. Even if you don't have a lot of time, you can whip up a little something with a beautiful result. This time around, I wanted to make a brooch in the shape of a multilayered flower. The flower here is crocheted in DMC Senso, a fingering weight cotton or cotton blend yarn (depending on the type of Senso used), with a 2.5 mm (US B-1 or C-2) hook. This flower is also the occasion to learn a new stitch: the half treble (htr). This stitch is right between the double crochet and the treble in height, and makes a beautiful transition between those stitches. It is not a common stitch (I had not seen it before I read Suzann's book), and as far as I know, there is no standard symbol for charting it. So, now you've learned the half treble stitch. Flower 1:

Monster Crochet Broomstick Lace Tutorial « Speckless Blog This is a very wordy and picture-ey tutorial because it is a pretty involved process, so please bear with me! I’ll break it into four parts: Tips, Starting the Base, Working the First Row of Loops, and Making the First Row of Lace. This is gonna be intense . . . Ready? You can do it, I know you can! Be patient with yourself. You can start your first “loop” row right after you make your chain, but I find it is easier to make a more sturdy “base layer” with a row of single crochet. After you finish your base row of single crochet, pull up a big loop with your hook (through the last stitch you just made). Remove your hook and set it aside for now. Okay, here’s where everything gets awkward. For “loop” rows, always work through the back loops only of the single crochets. Pull that yarn through – make the loop as big as you want – and at the same time, slide your middle finger down the hook so it is also in the loop: Next, insert your ring finger into the loop as well. Yarn over: . . . . . .
