Crochet Bowl Tutorial

Crochet Bowl Tutorial
Hello Lovelies, here is my photo tutorial for crocheting a bowl like the ones above. First lets talk yarn. For this project you will preferably need some cotton yarn or similar. Stretchy or woolly yarn will not have the strength to allow the bowl to maintain its shape. The next thing to consider is hook size. This bowl is made in a continuous spiral so even though I'm writing about rounds there is no start and finish point to each round and it is important to have a stitch marker ( I use a safety pin ) to remember where each round begins and ends. This tutorial is for 6 inch bowl....the biggest size I've made (on the left in ths picture above ) At the end of this tutorial are instructions for making the smaller sizes . So lets make a start shall we. Holding two strands together make a slip knot in the normal way.... Next chain 2........ Insert hook in the first chain........ Round 1 Make 6 single crochet into the same chain. This is the end of round 6...... Related:  Baskets

How to Make Simple Crochet Slippers « Crafts IMPORTANT NOTE: This pattern uses US crochet terminology. You can find the SLIPPER SIZE, YARN and HOOK specifications at the end of this article !!! (To see more of my patterns, please visit my ONLINE SHOP!) I am an addict. An addict for crochet slippers. It all began when I saw slippers similar to these somewhere on the internet. I loved them so much I couldn’t get their tempting image out of my head. All I needed was a pattern. But because I am terribly, terribly impatient, I found creating my own pattern quicker than looking for an official one on the web. And since I’m no crochet guru, the pattern turned out to be really simple. Actually, these slippers might be the simplest slippers in the universe. Or not. But they might. This is what I did… Round 1: 5 ch (chain stitch); join into ring with sl st (slip stitch) Round 2: 3 ch; 7 dc (double crochet stitch) into the center of the ring; join with sl st Round 3: 3 ch; 1 dc into first stitch; 2 dc into each next stitch; join with sl st Row 14: turn (!)

Standard Quilt Sizes Chart: King, Queen, Twin, Crib and More While quilt designers don't adhere to standard quilt sizes when designing, manufacturers tend to be a bit more conscientious and do follow some general guidelines. Manufacturers DO use standard measurements Our chart (below) shows standard mattress, bedding and quilt sizes for the US. The measurements are approximate; there are slight variations between manufacturers. We've listed pre-cut, packaged quilt battings, too. After deciding what size quilt best fits your bed, add approximately 6" to both width and length measurements to determine the batting size you'll need. Quilts that will be long arm quilted may need additional batting and backing. While manufacturers use standard quilt sizes for production, we all know that the quilt size you NEED depends on the mattress, bed frame and the "look" you desire for the bed to be covered. Check out "Estimate the Quilt Sizes Needed for YOUR Bed" for help determining the right size for you. Return to the top of Standard Quilt Sizes Chart

TUTORIAL: Come creare da se' i manici per una borsa Chi, come me, ama creare borse all'uncinetto, sa quanto sia difficile e dispendioso, specialmente nei piccoli centri urbani, reperire gli accessori e la minuteria adatta ad ognuna di esse. Quindi ci si barcamena un po' tra gli acquisti online, il riciclo e...la creatività. Dopo vari tentativi, ne ho sperimentato uno che ho provato sulle mie borse e che ha sortito anche un certo successo tra le destinatarie delle stesse borse. Quindi, anche dopo varie domande su come si realizzano i miei manici, ho pensato di farne un tutorial e di condividerlo con voi...spero vi sia gradito e d'aiuto!!! Per praticità di esecuzione io ho eseguito una catenella di 30 maglie..... Arrivate alla fine,girate il lavoro e, senza tagliare il filo, fate di una nuova catenella della stessa lunghezza... Stesso procedimento: maglie basse su tutte le catenelle...arrivate alla fine, nuova catenella per la terza volta Arrivati alla fine, bloccare i terminali con un ago..in questo modo...

Rectangular Diamond Trellis Basket Rectangular Diamond Trellis Basket – Free customisable crochet pattern with video stitch tutorial! More stash busting yarn storage! I know one of the reasons my customisable rope basket has been popular is because of it’s rectangular shape. So I thought I’d expand on my patterns using the diamond trellis stitch and make a rectangular version of this round one! This rectangular version is also customisable – just do an even number of rounds for the base and then move on to the sides. Mine is 34cm by 24cm by 18cm high. Scroll down for pdf patterns! Materials: I used 264g (450m) aran weight yarn and 158g (490m) dk yarn held together, with a size 5mm hook. You can use any combination of stash yarns held together to make a super chunky weight equivalent yarn. Cut two 40cm lengths of all the yarns you are holding together before your begin– this will be used to crochet the edging sl-st onto the handle area. You will find 4 stitch markers placed at the corners useful for this project. Method: Pattern:
