Three Way Crocheted Bandeau – Free Pattern

As promised, I have finally written the pattern for my Three-way crocheted bandeau (Though it’s three way, I mostly use this as headband :D)

You can use this as (1) neck scarf (2) Headband (3) belt

Notes on the yarn used:

I used a woolen yarn (90% lambswool) that felts (I did not felt it but it felts overtime when you laundry it) So the resulting texture is very soft.

I am destashing some yarns here:

You can use any kind of yarn you want But the texture and output would really be different.

Calla Lily – Crocheted Earrings

I love the book 100 Flowers to knit and crochet by Lesley Stanfield. My only problem with this is almost all the lovely flowers I would love to crochet is given as “knit instructions”.

100 Flowers to knit and crochet by Lesley Stanfield

But fortunately, I have taken the instructions given in the book as guide to hacking my crochet instructions of the calla lily. If you are a knitter, proceed to following the instructions given in this page. If you are a crocheter like me, I have a decent hack of the said pattern:

100 Flowers to knit and crochet – arum lily

Note that I do not claim to have an exact translation of the knit-crochet pattern. Also I am not very good in writing instructions.

This is my crochet version of the motif:

The trick is use embroidery threads instead of yarn, 0.70mm hook and White Glue to make the earrings stiff after crocheting

Tools for creating tiny earrings

You will need three colors of thread: Yarn A (white), Yarn B (green), Yarn C (yellow)

Use Yarn C:

The spathe is crocheted using 6 strands of thread.

ch 10. Fold in two. (set aside)

Special stitches:

2sc cluster: 2sc in 1 st, equivalent to 2sc count

2sctog: 1 sc in 2 st, equivalent to 1 sc count

(n)sc: where (n) is number, 1sc on 1st (n) times;

The lily:

Use two strands of Yarn A:

Foundation ch 6, (crochet in rounds, with sl st to close each round)

round 1: 9 sc around

round 2: sc, 2sc cluster (around) make 15 sc

round 3 – 6: 15 sc around

Fill the cavity with excess thread

round 7: sc, 2sctog around (makes 9 sc)

crochet in rows, start each row with ch

row 8-9: 9sc

row 10: sc, 2sc cluster for the remaining 8 st, (17 sc)

row 11: sc, 2sc cluster for the remaining 16 st (33 sc)

row 12-13: 33sc

row 14 – 17: *2sc, 2sctog* (repeat * til end of row)( make 25sc, 19 sc, 14sc, 11sc)

row 18-23: *2sctog, 2sc* (repeat * til end of row) (make 8sc, 6sc, 4sc, 3sc)

row 24: 2sctog, sc (2 sc)

row 25: 2sctog (1sc)

row 25: sc (1sc)

AngieHeart’s Shorts: Lace Edgings and Stitching Together

The final part of the series:

[Introduction, Basic Square, Connecting the Squares, Mesh & Half Motifs]

Now we are ready to crochet the last part of the shorts – The Lace Edging. The design uses a beautiful lace motif: a fan shaped lace with in between mesh.

You have to count your previous stitches here.The counting is as follows:

Foundation for the lace edging

Each numbered stitch is where your dc 2ch will be stitched
Note that in my project, I have 7 half motifs stitched around.

Round 1: dc 2ch (or 3ch depending on the tightness of your stitches)make sure that the mesh around would not be too loose nor too tight.

Round 2: 3sc on each ch space, around (or 2sc depending on the tightness you want if round 1 is too loose, make it tighter by decreasing the number of sc in this row)

Round 3: 6ch (counts as 1 sc and 4 ch). (Note: sc on space between 3sc’s of previous row). Do sc 4ch around.

Round 4: Start on the middle of 4ch sp of previous row (slip st to the middle). Do 2 ( sc 4ch ) You will reach the center of your half motif. * 5 dc into the next sp, sl st on next ch sp, counts as 1 sc. Do 6 more sc-4ch repeats.* Repeat (*) around until you reach the two sc 4ch repeats you made on the start.

Round 5: Start on the middle of 4ch sp of previous row (slip st to the middle). ( sc 4ch ) . * Do a dc – 2dc alternately on each five stitches of previous row. sl st on next ch sp(count as one sc) 4ch . Do 5 more sc-4ch repeats. * Repeat (*) around until you reach the first sc-4ch you made on the start.

Round 6: sl st to the middle. **ch, *2dc on dc of previous row, ch skip one st* Repeat (*) four more times, sl st on next sp. (counts as 1 sc) 4 ch. Do 4 more sc-4ch repeats.*. Repeat (**) around until you reach the first st of your round. sl st on first ch.

Round 7: 3ch (counts as 1 dc) dc on each st (should have 14 dc) sl st on next sp. do the4 mesh until u reach the center again. dc on each st. repeat round

Round 8: ** 3ch (counts as 1dc) dc on same st. *2ch skip 2st. 2dc on next st* Repeat (*) 5 more times. 2ch sl st on next ch sp. Do 3 mesh. ** Repeat(**, note include additional 2ch at the start of **) around. then 2ch to close the round

Round 9. 3ch (counts as 1 dc) dc on next st . 2dc on ch space. repeat until you fill the center. (you should have 24 dc). sl st on next sp. *Do 2 mesh. 26 dc sl st on next ch sp* Repeat (*)around until you reach the last mesh of previous row. 2dc to close the round.

Round 10. sl st until you reach 3rd dc of previous round. 3ch (counts as 1dc) dc on next st. *2ch skip two stitches, dc on next two st.* Repeat (*) five more times. 2ch sc on next ch sp. ** Do 1 mesh. ***2ch skip 2 st., dc on next two st*** Repeat (***) 6 more times, 2ch. ** Repeat (**) around. until you reach last mesh of previous row. ch 2 dc on next two st. ch 2. close the round.

Round 11. sl s until you reach the first ch of previous row. 3ch (counts as 1 dc) dc on ch space.* 2ch skip 2st, 2dc on next ch space.* Repeat (*) 5 more times sl st. ***( **2ch sk 2st, 2dc on ch sp** Repeat ** 6 more timess. sl st on next ch sp) *** Repeat *** around. then close the round and complete first motif by doing 2dc on ch sp, 2ch skip 2 st, 2dc on ch sp, 2ch.

Round 12 😀 FINALLY! LAST ROW! sl st on ch sp. Picot ( sc on ch sp 4ch sl st on sc, sc on ch space). sc on next two st, picot around 😀

YEI!!! DONE WITH THE LACE EDGING!

Lace edging

All you have to do next is to stitch the parts Be careful with stitching and do not ruin the lace design of the motif. To do this properly i pin the two parts in another pair of cropped pants I own:

See that there is still missing space for the shorts at the back.

Back of shorts

I have to fill this space by doing another mesh:

The lace mesh has 26 rows that is composed of dc 2ch (9 mesh in first row) up to 2 mesh on 26th row. The decreases depends on you I actually did not bother to count if the two lace mesh i made was exactly the same count Counting is sometimes stressful

Remember to make two of this!

Now, let’s sew the parts! :

Sew the back mesh we just made into each pair of back part of the short. The back part is the one with extra triangular half motif we made.

Then sew the back parts together!

Back Part!

The half triangular motifs on each part will form a diamond shape when sewn

When you get this, it is your assurance that you are sewing the parts properly.

And sew around until you are done sewing the front

Front part

You can choose to put a lining to your shorts and a space for garter I lined mine and sew drawstring for the waist.

Luckily for me I have an old top that i am no longer using so I am going to upcycle this by incorporating it to my crocheted shorts

Old clothes i want to use for my shorts

Next! The finished shorts! 😀

If anyone succeeds on creating the whole thing from my hack please send me a link! I want to know if i have been helpful

Free Pattern: Felted Baby Slippers with Textured Sole

[Learn Ginantsilyo by Project]

What the project is about: This is my attempt to felt the lambwool yarns I bought from China.

One of the skills I am attempting to learn as a crocheter is to felt wool. In this project, I tried to create slippers with felted sole for added comfort to the wearer.

I was playing with my fiance’s niece when I saw one of her slippers lying around. I picked it up and got inspired to make a pair of slippers. It’s what I do usually. Be inspired then crochet.

This pair of slippers is made with felted wool, for additional touch of softness and comfort. Plus ankle-wrap straps to secure the slippers on for extra flirty style. I also made the bottom sole textured for rough – look.

The project – Felted Baby Slippers with Textured Sole:

About the yarns and the hook:

Brown Yarn – this was bought in Indonesia at http://craftandme.com under their Soft Cotton Category.

Red Yarn – this was bought in China at http://tradekey.com. I negotiated with one of the suppliers there and got a huge lot of lambswool from them.

Felting Wool – ahh the glory of it.

This was one of the reasons why i’ve been wanting to have wool yarns. I want to try felting and hehe. it was not easy as i thought. The yarn did not felt the way i wanted it because my (lack of) patience took over.

I cannot share yet the experience since i am more excited about the result. I will share next time the steps I had taken but i want to share this wrist wrap i was able to make:

Things to do with a crocheted chain: Improvised Headband

Improvised Headband

Materials needed:

Variegated Pink Wool and Pink Cotton Yarn

Materials for the headband

YARNS (of course!) – I used a variegated pink wool (bulky) and soft cotton
Plain black headband
A hook (4.5 mm)
Adhesive tape (Double sided) – Glue STick is much better, mind you.
some leaves to accentuate
button for the flower applique
needle

Using the variegated wool yarn crochet chain to cover the entire length of the head band.

Cover the headband with the crocheted chain. Put it in place using an adhesive tape. It is much better to glue it with a glue stick, but my glue gun’s at home back in the province so i have to improvise.

Create a 5 Flower applique using the solid pink cotton yarn.

– Chain 3 slip stitch to form a ring. *Chain 4, slip stitch into the ring * (Repeat 4 more times)

Attach a yellow button to the flower.

Attach five leaves at one side of the headband.

Attach the flower applique by sewing it into the headband.

Now you have an improvised headband. Pretty easy right?

Momoink loves it so much that she tries it on:

Project Description

It wasn’t an original design. In fact if you visit the stalls in mines view and wright park, you would see a lot of these in their shelves. What inspired me to make one too was it was when I obtained my first batch of baguio yarns and the lady who pointed me the place to buy them was making on these particular top. I bought one from one of the seller and tried to hack the stitches used for the blouse.
