Seeing as this is my first ever post, I thought maybe a little background history into my growing love of crochet was necessary.
I taught myself to crochet over a year ago, with the aim of making jewelry to sell online, using wire instead of yarn. I discovered that wire was really hard to work with and after one small item my hand was cramping! I did make some earrings, much to the disappointment of the family members who received them as Christmas presents i'm sure! Anyway so in-between making terrible wire crochet I began using normal yarn for bigger projects and my true love for crochet was born. I love experimenting with different materials, like wire, twine and carrier bags and updating vintage patterns with bright colours. I do intend to put up my work and once my etsy shop is live I will link that to here as well.
This is a snood/ scarf I made earlier this year
(pattern to follow once I've remembered what I did)

Here's the pattern for the snood as requested:
To start I did 190 Double crochet foundation chains. If you're not sure how to do that then here is a video I found on youtube which is pretty good.

Row 1- 9
At the last foundation chain, chain 2 and turn.
Dc in each chain across (190 Dc) ch2 and turn.
To join the scarf up i just slip stitched the ends together but you could sew them together if that suits you better.
I would really like the pattern when you remember it. I'm new at crochet and would love to make my girls one of those. My email is barbroten@gmail.com if you can't find me on here. Thanks in advance.
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara. Absolutely I will try and remember it over the next few days and let you have it. It's super easy from what I remember, so perfect for someone who is new to crochet :)
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara just to let you know that i've updated the post to include the pattern.
