3D Flower, Blooming flower, colors and yarns, Crocheted cushion

A third project on the go :)

Good morniiiiiiiing sweet people!

When I first saw Lucy’s blooming flower cushion I thought to myself I have to make one of my own, I HAVE TO!

This flower cushion is incredibly beautiful, wonderful, amazing …. I fell crazy in love and was a little bit afraid of the tutorial thinking that it was maybe too hard and complicated… and then, I tried it one night…and it worked…and when you’ve done the first four rounds it becomes very simple… ooooh a lovely tutorial with a lovely result… Thank you so much Lucy!

Before trying it, I decided to use the same thin acrylic yarn that I used for this cushion and this one! It is called : Mirage 100%acrylic yarn and I have some leftover in beautiful colors…

It is much thinner than the Nako yarn I normally work with to make most of my blankets and projects! and it is crocheted with a 3mm hook !

So, after I put all my left over mirage yarn in my plastic basket I began following stitch after stitch Lucy’s lovely tutorial that you can find here!

I can tell you something about this tuto…it is very addictive…and the more you work on…the more beautiful it becomes….the more you want to crochet….

I even added 3 more rounds yesterday evening to show them to you… This is how it looks like this morning 🙂

My husband who never never comment on any of my hook projects said to me yesterday: ” This is beautiful!! ” 😀 (lucky me 🙂 )

I’m thinking about making it very very big…. 45 cm diam…but I don’t know if the tutorial will still work for so many number of rounds… do you have any idea? Did anyone of you worked on this and made it very big? I would really love to know…

Anyhow, Thank you again Lucy for this marvelous project!

and thank you all for visiting today!

Sending you parcels of love via this blog 🙂

Warm kisses!

Crocheted blankets, Stripes

Stripes of Love: some progress

Good morning sweeties!

I’ve been crocheting Stripes of love this week and when I feel too bored doing one treble after another I move to “Myyyy vintage blanket” to have some fun 🙂 hehe

I can never stick to one single project at a time…

So today I’m gonna show you some progress I made to my hubby’s blanket, stripes of love…

I even cheated a little bit and put some dark pink…but shuuuut do not tell him… he will for sure not even notice it when he will see the hole blanket done 🙂 hehe

I can not stick to masculine colors only … what can I do ?

Should I add more greens and blues? maybe…

I’m making Stripes of Love by crocheting 3 rows of treble, one row of dc in cream, 3 rows of treble etc

Here is a close-up… did you notice the row after the dc one?

Yes, it is crocheted in the back part of each dc stitch…I love the small lines in cream 🙂

Have to go now…

Thank you so much for your visit today and thank you for following me here in my new address and thank you for all the sweet comments you’re leaving day after day… it is always a huge pleasure reading them 🙂

Have a wonderful monday!
