Summer....

Hello again, as you maybe understand I was on holidays in Greece!! It was so nice and so warm! I didn't have much time to crochet or in general to create something but I will come back soon.
These are the shells of some sea ​​urchins a friend of mine found in the sea.

Round Washcloth

Hello,
today I made a round washcloth. It is quite easy to make it and I will try to give you the pattern instructions below. You can find videos for learning how to read crochet patterns in Annie's Attic site.


The first thing you need to know is how to make the adjustable ring. You can see a video here showing how to create this magic ring. And here are the stitches for every round.

Rnd 1: Ch 1. Do 9 sc in ring; do not join.
Rnd 2: Do 2 hdc in each sc around. You will have 8 hdc at the end of this round.
Rnd 3: (2 dc in next hdc, ch 1, skip next hdc) 9 times. You will have 18 dc and 9 ch at end of this round.
Rnds 4-9: (2 dc in next dc, dc in each dc until the next ch, ch 1 for skipping ch-1 sp) 9 times.
Rnd 10: (sl st in each st) 5 times (for 5 of the triangles created) . Fasten off.

Or you can make the same pattern for round 4-8 and then the 9th round could be:
Rnd 9: (2 dc in next dc, dc in next 6 dc, ch 1 for skipping next ch-1 sp) 5 times, sl st in each st to end of rnd. Fasten off.

Before finishing with all the sl st, maybe 5-6 st before the end, you can crochet a ch 10 (skipping one st) for being able to hang your washcloth.

Hello all,
I am not posting very frequently but the truth is that I have a lot of job recently so not a lot of free time. But I will try post a bit more often. Here is my new necklace, made with needle felt balls and just 3 crochet balls.

Crochet bracelet

Some days ago I went to a crochet and knitting meeting in Midsommarkransen in "Tellus Caféet". Τhe atmosphere in this place is very nice, and we had a relaxing time with two friends. This is a crochet bracelet I did there for another friend.
