Sometimes, you just have to sit yourself down and get on with things. So that's what I did yesterday - pattern writing. Not my favourite activity. I'd much rather be making, but these things have to be done - eventually. There are a number of patterns waiting for attention, but I started with a gentle one, to ease myself into the job.
And here it is the Floral Embellishment crochet pattern.
You can use the motif to embellish all your crafty goodness. The pattern can be downloaded directly, here, or you can access it via Ravelry and add it to your library. As always this is a free pattern, because I love sharing with you all and it's great to give something back to the knitting and crocheting community.
You will need scraps of DK weight yarn in four colours and a 3.5 mm (Size E) crochet hook. Any weight of yarn woud work for the pattern but the size of your crochet hook would need to be adjusted. The pattern is written using both UK and US crochet terms. The pattern PDF contains photos for each step of the way and I hope that you enjoy the pattern.
Right, that's one pattern done, now I'm back to some knitting before I tackle the next one.
I love how you worked in a touch of green, very pretty flower. Thank-you for including US terms thats really thoughtful of you!!!
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure.
DeleteThank you I am currently knitting a cardigan that might need a little embellishing :)
ReplyDeleteIf you decide to use this pattern, I hope you enjoy it.

ReplyDeleteThank you Jo, good idea.
DeleteA beautiful addition, I actually am impressed with it on a hangar. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lorraine
DeleteI am going to give this a go. I have rather neglected my attempts to crochet, and at least if I get stuck I will know who to turn to.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy the pattern Ginny.
DeletePlease feel free to contact me if the pattern isn't clear.
DeleteI'm sure it is clear, it is just that I am such a newbie to crochet.
DeleteI agree I don't enjoy the pattern writing process either. Your flower is very pretty, thank you for sharing the pattern. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda, it's a pleasure to share.
