I made these as an Spring gift for my mom. The pattern for them came from the book: Kyuuto! Japanese Crafts: Lacy Crochet. Page 4: Coasters.

Blue Phone Purse for Grandma

Last November I made one of these in pink for my mom. I’ll add those photos and at least a loose pattern soon. I’m trying to catch up on a long backlog here. I’m lousy at posting these things as I go. It’s much easier to just move to the next project.

I made this hat to match a baby dress my mother just finished, for a special order from a gal in Greece. It’s all for her daughter’s baptism coming up in the summer. Now that the hat is done I need to mail it all to her. I like the way this hat came out. [...]

Kerchief – Tricotage de Lin

Snow — Mon, 02 May 2011 02:14:17 +0000

Pattern from a book mostly in Japanese, with splash of French, called: Tricotage de Lin. I worked out the details from the diagrams. All the patterns in the book are using linen yarns. I used a #10 DMC crochet thread, and I think the size came out perfect without any alterations to the pattern.
