DIAGONAL BLOSSOMS: Crochet Pattern

*****  Announcement *****

All NEW patterns will be advertised on my NEW website https://conceptcreative.club/ , please change your subscription :). Thank you!

Before publishing this new knit sweater-dress pattern 

www.instagram.com/p/CH8H-x9BWSg I thought of including several easier crochet patterns that I usually make with yarn left-overs and give as gifts or donate to charity auctions in our local school. This year’s charity auction is off due to the pandemic, so I’m posting photos from objects that were sold in 2019.

This PATTERN is FREE till December, 23rd, 2020 for everyone who has finished any warm garment* created by Conceptcreative.store , posted photos of completed garment on Ravelry and https://mycrochet.conceptcreative.store/ 

*warm garment: cardigan, sweater or sweater-dress made of wool, alpaca or mohair.

 

This piece will lend a sophisticated air of modern crochet home design and compliment any home style decor. It’s cozy and versatile and the best thing is that you will always have an original gift for all your loved ones: both men or women. 🎁
The samples shown were made in fail-safe neutral tones that are suitable to any minimalist design style. These subdued hues don’t overwhelm any given space and never fail to make an interior feel more homey. Of course, you can crochet this project in solid energetic hues for even more visual appeal! Just go for a hue that speaks to you and it will most likely look great.

More details about this pattern: 

►  It is customizable to any cylinder object – basket, lamp, glass, jar, tin-can  (you will crochet foundation row until its length equals to the measured cylinder object; then you will crochet in the round, always in the same direction).

► The beautiful diagonals are created by double crochet stitches, post stitches and puff stitches. PHOTO TUTORIAL of these stitches, WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS for every row in English and high quality crochet CHARTS are included (see screen shots)

►  You will not need to crochet gauge – just take soft yarn like wool, linen/polyester or cotton/acrylic in one solid color and start crocheting with hook recommended by the producer of your yarn. The samples shown were made with 5 ply (UK) = Sport-weight = 2 = Fine (USA) wool and hook 3.25 mm (hook D in USA).

Tips on choosing colors for this cover:

There is a classic decor rule, which states that 60 percent of the room should be a dominant color, 30 percent should be a secondary color or texture, and 10 percent should be an accent.

  • 60% Main (dominant) Color. This includes the color of walls and floor, and may include a piece of furniture, curtains or draperies. All of these don’t necessarily need to be solid colors, but the main color should always be prominent.
  • 30% Secondary Color (half the amount of color saturation as the main color). This color should contrast with the main color and create depth and interest in your décor.
  • 10% Accent Color (one-third of the secondary color and one-sixth of the main color). The idea of an accent is to create contrast, add greater interest to your color scheme. It should be used throughout the décor to draw the eye deeper into the room design.

You can achieve harmonious color palettes with the help of a color  wheel. The color wheel is the basis of color theory, because it shows the relationship between the colors. Read more on color wheel and its usage in design: www.canva.com/colors/color-wheel/

CLASSIC UNISEX Scarf Pattern

***

As we all are getting ready for colder seasons I created another Huge Unisex Scarf! 😊

This parallelogram shaped piece was my TV project that allowed my hands to switch between crocheting and knitting. My hands are never hurt since I design items that don’t require tight stitching like bags, hats or amigurumis, but it is still great to alternate between crochet and knitting and avoid repetitive strains on my hands.

What about a pocket-scarf? Hm… I bought one French faux fur pocket scarf in about 2007 and even after 13 years of putting my hands into cozy yammy 😊 pockets they still look elegant with my collarless coat. And almost like new ones :). Which I can’t say about crochet and knitted pockets – I remember they got stretched in all my knitted kid’s jackets after a few hours of active wear. Except for discreet side-seam pockets – the baggy parts in such pockets remained invisible.

So, I’d rather keep this scarf/wrap more elegant so it can be draped over the shoulders.

Till September 2nd 2020 this pattern will be 15 % off with the code HANDMADE on Ravelry and Etsy.

 The pattern includes instructions for width 33 cm = 13’’ and two lengths:
145 cm = 57‘’ for women’s scarf and
216 cm = 85‘’ for men’s scarf.

However, you can knit a longer or a shorter project.

Both scarfs have only a few narrow purl-sections for accentuating visually interesting patterns, so do not worry if your stockinette stitch is uneven – your finished work will still look like a designer-piece, a stylish Christmas gift for your loved ones.

Stitches used: knit; purl; yarn over; knit 2 stitches together; purl 2 stitches together (photos of these basic stitches are not included);
slip 2 stitches onto cable needle and hold in the back, knit 3rd stitch, yarn over, knit 2 stitches from the cable needle (photos included).
