Large circles in a square, tutorial After telling you about my new blanket last week, I received a few questions about how to make the large circles and squares. So here is a tutorial about them and about how to make them into a blanket. You start the same way as for a small circle and crochet 3 rounds as described here.

Round 7: ch 3, dc into joining stitch, dc into next 5 st, *2dc in next st, dc into next 5 st*, repeat until end, join with a sl st into 3rd of initial 3ch (84st) Now before I go on, I’ll explain first the dbtr stitch: That’s it!!

vintage transfer finds Lacy Blanket Join How to make a Lacy Join for Blanket Squares The aim of this tutorial is to show you how I made the lacy join on my Vintage Sampler Blanket.

something pretty – the pattern | mille makes... about this pattern: i found this pretty picture on pinterest and was totally smitten. after a lot of googling and searching i wasn’t able to find the pattern, so decided to figure the pattern out myself. dottie angel‘s pictures of her thrifty find was very helpful, and i was happy to find out that this is actually a pretty simple pattern, so novices – don’t be alarmed! just go ahead and try it out :) for more pictures, check out this, this or this post. about yarn/hook: any yarn with corresponding hook will do, i find that moving up a hook size from what the yarn says makes a softer material that would work better with a blanket. i’ve made pillows with these squares so that wouldn’t matter so much. i used sandnes duo (dk weight) and hook 4 mm and the square measures 8×8 cm, with garnstudio drops paris (aran) and hook 5 mm one square is a bit over 10×10. first a couple of basics: 2. the first dc on row is made by chain 3 begin with colour of flower. chain 4, make circle with one slip stitch
Daisy Puffagon Tutorial Any yarn you wish to use. I’d recommend using one hook size down from the recommend hook size for your yarn. This pattern is written in UK terms. American terms are given below in bold. WRITTEN PATTERN: Abbreviated instructions can be found at the end of the tutorial. JOIN AS YOU GO: Find out how to join the Puffagons as you make them with the 'Joining Daisy Puffagons' tutorial. I'm quite pleased with how 'seamless' I managed to make these look. I like to start of these little puffs with a magic loop. So, assuming we've now all got a magic loop, let's begin. First of all, make 1 chain and then make 6 double crochets (dc) into the loop. Once that's done we need to close up the circle. So take the waste end of the yarn (not the one still attached to your yarn ball) and pull it up until the stitches form a circle. It should look like this (left pic). Cut your yarn and using your hook, pull the end of the yarn until the end comes through the stitch. So now it should look like this. Now make 1 chain.
Mijn Grand Marquoir... Mijn Grand Marquoir heeft er weer heel wat kruisjes bij gekregen... En soms zijn de patroontjes een ietsiepietsie aangepast. De franse tekst heb ik laten vervallen. Heerlijk elke keer zo'n klein patroontje. Granny's (2) Weer een toertje verder met de granny de vierde toer is super simpel en snel gehaakt: Het is een simpel patroontje: 1e toer: 6 lossen, sluit tot cirkel. 2e toer: 4 lossen (= 1e dubbele stokje), 1 dubbelstokje, tot cluster haken. 2 lossen, 2 dubbele stokjes tot cluster gehaakt, 2 lossen, etc... tot er 12 clusters zijn. 3e toer: In iedere open ruimte tussen de clusters - 4 dubbele stokjes tot cluster gehaakt, 6 lossen, weer 1 cluster van 4 dubbele stokjes, etc.. nieuw -4e toer: Haak in een losse boogje 4 lossen en 2 dubbele stokjes tot 1 cluster. 6 lossen, in de zelfde boog haak 3 dubbele stokjes tot cluster. 3 lossen, haak in volgende boog halve vaste, 6 lossen, 1 h.vaste in volgende boog, 3 lossen, en je bent op de volgende hoek. Om alle granny's aan elkaar te krijgen ben ik van onderstaand patroontje uitgegaan: Het moet een luchtig geheel blijven, dus vrij open. Feitelijk steeds 3 lossen haken en naar het volgende boogje gaan. Ik moet bekennen dat ik niet helemaal dit patroontje gevolgd heb,
