Rainbow Crochet Zipped Coin Purse Tutorial & SparklePetal - StumbleUpon. May 16, 2010 by sparklepetal This tutorial is to explain how I made my Rainbow Crochet Zipped Coin Purse.

Rainbow Crochet Zipped Coin Purse Tutorial & SparklePetal - StumbleUpon

It’s my first tutorial, so I hope it makes sense (let me know if it doesn’t) and please excuse some dodgy low-light photography! To start with you need to crochet your circle. You will need crochet yarn in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Now use the tutorial from Attic24, or your own pattern of choice. When you fold the circle in half it will look like a little crocheted rainbow: To turn this rainbow into a zipped coin purse you will need a small piece of lining fabric (8 inches square is plenty) and a zip slightly longer than the curved edge.

Turn under a half-inch on one side of each tab and pin that edge onto the zip: Undo the zip half way. Stitch, close to the turned edge of each tab: Trim the excess zip on each end: Trim the tabs to slant inwards: Fold the lining fabric in half and lay the rainbow on the fabric: Wanna make a monster? - StumbleUpon.

Hello my lovelies, great to be here in the Attic :: truthfully I should not be tucked up nattering in the Attic at all, should be attending to the business of making clean the piles of dirty laundry and packing/preparing for our trip away in Connievan tomorrow (woooooooohooooooo, four nights away by the coast!!!!)

However..........before I leave to go jollying off on my giddy-trip to the seaside, I really, really desperately want to have a quick chat about Acrylic yarn and granny stripe goings on. Cos I need to share, and you need to know, right? It will NOT WAIT, right?? OK.....above yarn is my squishy big balls of Stylecraft Special DK :: 100% Acrylic :: working on a 4mm hook. Cost was £1.60 per ball in my LYS. As requested, here are the colours I've got nestling in the bag....

I’ve been planning a cactus collection for a few months now – I know I’m not exactly the first person to come up with the idea to make a crocheted cactus, but my idea was to make my designs more realistic than the cartoonish cacti I’ve seen before. I always like to base my patterns on solid research so they look as realistic as possible, and when I started to investigate, I found a huge number of really interesting-looking cacti to crochetify: I started out sketching 8 different types, and then had so many great ideas for how to create them, I couldn’t decide which to cut! I spent a lot of time developing different techniques and effects for each cactus, so I hope you can see that it’s not the same basic pattern with tweaks for size and shape here: each cactus is completely different from all the others. 8 plant designs plus 2 pots seemed a bit excessive for one pattern – that’s almost a book, not a pattern!

Here I am, back again, to finish what I began yesterday! How-to: woven circles trivet. I found the gold and pink crocheted trivet pictured below at the thrift store this weekend, and it was a total "I can make that" moment.

how-to: woven circles trivet

The structure of the circles is made from plastic rings cut from one of those pieces that holds together a six-pack of soda. The hardest part will be in finding plastic rings that are actually circle. Free Pattern &Tutorial at CraftPassion.com. I found a Koala Amigurumi Pattern in the Woman’s Day website and I have some off-white and gray organic cotton yarns on hand, so I made a pair of these small little stuffed koalas for my kids in reverse color.

Some ideas to make it differently: 1. This adorable little koala is about 3-5″ tall only (depend on your yarn and the matching hook size), install a key ring on it’s head and turn it into a key chain, hang it to the bag’s zipper. 2. If we sew the limbs closer to the center of the body and insert 4 small strong magnets to the tip of each limb, you can make it “huggy” and hug on a tree branch or at the edge of your curtain or your pencil, ruler etc… 3. And, and…. instead of poly-fills, stuff beads into the body to weight it down and with the magnets of it limbs, it can be a cute memo holder on your desk too 4. Find the appropriate positions for the ears, approx at the center of the vertical cross section of the head, middle of the height. Lastly, stuff and sew the limbs to the body. Crochet and Knitting.
