Remember my
Basketweave Scarf? Recently I was just itching to work up another project
with that stitch. Just my luck, a friend introduced me to
Meg White. Meg is a knitter and crocheter who also
writes her own patterns. She had come into some free yarn and was sharing with the group I attend on Sundays. How generous! You'll never guess what I scored... more of that awesome
Mountain Colors Twizzle yarn in a different color, Big Sky. It was perfect for a basketweave project!
It turned out deliciously squishy if I do say so myself :) I used a 5.5mm hook and not quite one whole skein of the yarn. I still have another one! What shall I make with it?
Did you want to make your own basketweave cowl? Simply follow my basketweave tutorial (linked above) until your cowl is the desired length. Then add a few rows of single crochet with some button holes. Ta da!
This is soooo beautiful! I love your story of your Grandma teaching you how to crochet....!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! Although, my grandmother never taught me, as she passed away when I was 6. She only inspired me :)
