Super Crafty Sunday Link Up #3 – Etsy Gift Card Giveaway

Welcome to the 3rd Super Crafty Sunday Link Up!


 Since last month’s party, here’s what I’ve been up to:

Whirlpool Coin Purse and the Pattern Pack Pro, Issue 41.
Women’s Ripple Fingerless Gloves – Free Crochet Pattern
Rectangle Shawl and Happily Hooked Magazine, Issue 48.


 This Week’s Most Clicked Include:

Top: Retro Granny Square Coat from Atelier Marie-Lucienne – Crochet Inspiration with Basic Chart. Do you follow Marjan on Instagram? I have been following her through the process of making this coat. Though I did not know what she was working on through the follow along, I was so intrigued, especially with all the beautiful colors and patterns. This post shows the finished coat, and shows a drawing of the initial interpretation – a great technique! I think my favorite part about this coat is the pleat in the center back of the coat – don’t see things like this very often in crochet. The zipper is also an excellent addition, especially to avoid additional stretching from putting on and taking off. This is such a beautiful project! Awesome job, Marjan!
 
Bottom: Waffle Stitch Mug Cozy from Raji’s Craft Hobby – Free Crochet Pattern with Photo Tutorial. I love the idea of mug cozies! And this blue is just beautiful, paired with the texture of the waffle stitch – such a nice cozy! This free crochet pattern comes with a step by step photo tutorial. I will add that it doesn’t specify the yarn used, and to me, it looks like an acrylic blend. I will caution that acrylic yarn is a synthetic material that can melt, so I always recommend cotton yarn for mug cozies. I will add that cotton does not have the same bounce back as acrylic, so you will need to add a little extra at first, as you won’t be able to take stretch into consideration.


 A Little From Helena:

Granny Square Poncho – Free Crochet Pattern. I am IN LOVE with this poncho! The squared neckline (I know there’s another word for it that I can’t think of right now…), the lacy appearance of the granny stitch, the flowy sides, and even the pop of the bright white. I can’t wait to get me some yarn, and try this out! I would really love to see if I can turn this into a top with armholes. The poncho would also look great turned with the points down the front and back centers.

    I would love an Etsy gift card. There aren't many opportunities to get one. I love to see handmade accessories with fabric, like fabric flower accessories!

    I started on some pillows. They are blue and white floral Laura Ashley with yellow fabric on the sides and turquoise braid. I got some of the supplies from Etsy!
