1920's Cloche Hat Crochet Pattern (12-15 stitches for 4 inches)

1920's Cloche Hat Crochet Pattern (12-15 stitches for 4 inches)
If I could go back to anytime in history I’d probably travel to the 1920’s!.. The swing music and catchy Charleston, the unforgettable hats and fashion and Walt Disney’s film debut are just a few of the many reasons I love the roaring twenties! Unfortunately I don’t own a time machine, so I guess I’ll just have to settle with watching Downton Abbey and The Great Gatsby for now. I have to admit though, that while wearing this cloche hat with my pair mary jane heels, I truly felt like a flapper, and it was wonderful! I would highly encourage you to listen to this little collection of some of my favourite swing music while crocheting this cloche hat… Trust me, it will make the experience that much more enjoyable! What You’ll Need Tapestry Needle Finished Size Teen/Adult – Hat Circumference: 21.5″ (55cm) Stitches & Abbreviations – Pattern – (Chains at the start of a rnd count as the first stitch of that rnd) Taking your 6.00mm crochet hook, start of by making a Slip Knot, then crochet 3 chains.

Bon week end au soleil, dans les jardins... profitons-en au maximum!!! blueSusan makes: Perfect Fabric Purse Handle Tutorial I love the look of pre-made leather handles on a handbag but I don't love how pricey they sometimes are to purchase. In our book Just for You: Selfish Sewing there's a pattern for a handbag called the Crafty Satchel (designed by Sara Lawson) that calls for pre-made leather handles. Today I'm going to show you how to make DIY "pre-made" handles that you can use as an alternative to purchased leather handles. All you need is fabric and a little Soft & Stable interfacing. Here's what they look like on the Crafty Satchel I sewed up for Purse Palooza. These handles are perfect for using with the Crafty Satchel pattern from our book but you can customize them for any pattern that calls for pre-made handles. You'll need... 1/4 yard of quilting cotton 2 strips 2'' x 28 1/2'' of Soft & Stable (fabric covered foam batting) this is the same interfacing used in the bag pattern, you may even have enough leftover to use.

KUMIHIMO - Blog à part ! Le kumihimo est un art japonais, dont on a retrouvé des traces datant du IIIe/IVe siècle, qui consiste dans le tressage de plusieurs brins (3 au minimun). Cet art permet de créer des tresses pour différents usages décoratifs: bracelets, colliers, embrases de rideaux, ceintures, anses de sacs ... Votre imagination est la seule limite ! La photos du dessus représente la forme vulgarisée du "marudai" appelé "mobidai" (si si, le petit disque en mousse) qui traditionnellement ressemble plutôt à cela Il y a des formes plus "élaborée" que je vous invite à voir ici. Pour un historique tres intéressant en français, il faut allez voir là. Pour le principe il s'agit de croiser les brins, ainsi sur la première photos il y a un disque gabarit qui nous indique de mettre le fil de la position a1 en a2, le fil de b1 en b2 etc... puis on recommence la séquence jusqu'à la longueur désirée. J'ai fait quelques essais : Un petit tuto J'ai choisi de la laine de différentes composition. ensuite, j'applique ceci

The Drizzle of Honey: Tutorial: Lace Shrug In my last post I showed you my new lace shrug and where you can get the free pattern by Kristiina V. to make it.

Finger Knitting – a Tutorial I’ve noticed that there are two types of new knitters – those who take to the idea of knitting with needles easily and those who really struggle with the concept of “making stitches with chopsticks”. (I can’t claim to have thought of that natty summary – thanks to one of my young pupils!). Before I suggest teaching them how to crochet, I usually take a detour into finger knitting. However, finger knitting is great for young children where co-ordination is still an issue, or in fact for those who may love the idea of handling and crafting with yarn, but the use of needles is not appropriate. Since it is easy and half-term is just round the corner, I thought I’d pass on the skill. 1. Drape the Yarn with tail by your thumb (photo 1) 2. Wind the Yarn around fingers (photo 2) 3. More winding (photo 3) 4. Finished winding (photo 4) 5. Start with the little finger (photo 5) Then the ring finger (photo 6) Now the middle finger (photo 7) The first row finished (photo 8) 6. The purl side (photo 9) 7.

inverleith: Horizontal Box Stitch- a tutorial post I've been wanting to make a new blanket for George for rather a while now. He's much too big for the little pram blankets I made over a year ago, and he needs something that will keep him cosy in his cot bed. As with the large blanket I made for Albie, it would need to be made of acrylic yarn to keep costs down and to be fully machine washable. I toyed with the idea of using Drops Paris cotton aran, but I'd need a fair amount of that particular yarn, so I opted for my favourite acrylic- Stylecraft Special DK. Anyway, I decided to make the blanket in a vintage-style stitch. You will need: DK-weight yarn 4mm hook/US size G Abbreviations (UK crochet terminology): ch= Chain tr= Treble crochet dc= double crochet tch= turning chain st= stitch sk= skip Horizontal Box Stitch Pattern: To begin, ch multiples of 20 +3 tch. Row 1: 3tr into fourth ch from hook sk3, 1dc into next 3ch 3tr into next st then continue in pattern: (sk3, 1dc into next, 3ch, 3tr into next st across), 1dc into last ch. Row 2: 3ch, xxx

Crochet Crocodile Stitch Photo Tutorial | the twisted yarn One of the crochet stitches that’s important for the house bag is the crocodile stitch. Look, here it is, used for the roof of the house, which forms the flap for the bag:- Crocodile Stitch For The Roof Of The House It’s not difficult but it looks fancy, and it’s a stitch that works well for scarves. Crocodile Stitch Just don’t make an entire cardigan in this stitch, especially not in green, or you will look like an actual crocodile – which is not a good look (except on crocodiles, of course). Whilst I finish off writing up the bag pattern, I thought I’d put together these instructions, because although there are a lot of crocodile stitch tutorials out there, they really do vary in quality. (Actually there is a bit of further ado.) Abbreviations:- ch = chain ss = slip stitch dc = double crochet (which would be a treble in UK crochet terms) sk = skip st/sts = stitch/stitches 1. Easy! 2. 3. Half-scale Turn your work through 180◦ so that the rung of the ladder you’re working on is now at the bottom.
