mio My second swap partner, MareMare, received the motifs I sent her. If you’re curious, here they are, along with the patterns I used for them:
Haley’s Comet – from Crochet Stitch Motifs – 250 Stitches To Crochet, page 61:
Mediterranean Circle – from Crochet Stitch Motifs – 250 Stitches To Crochet, page 209:
Flower Petal Dishcloth and Potholder:
Four round standard granny square (with Boa!) :
Star To Star – from Crochet Stitch Motifs – 250 Stitches To Crochet, page 214:
April 3rd, 2009 mio As my regular readers know, I recently participated in a swap on Craftster. It’s the Amazing Crochet Motif Swap organized by craftADDchick who, coincidentally, was also one of my partners.
She received her package today, so I can finally blog a bit about what I’ve been up to!
Snowflake II, from “Crochet Stitch Motifs: 250 Stitches to Crochet” p. 75
This one measured in (shortest way) 4.5 inches.
Dream Weaver square
8 inches
Summer Sun square
7.5 inches
Waldo’s Puzzle square
9.5 inches
The astute among you will notice that we’re now 4 motifs and 29.5 inches. The swap called for at least 5 motifs and at least 30 inches.
Naturally, I made this simple two-round granny square:
0.5 inches
Of course, craftADDchick is intending on using the motifs she receives to make a blanket, so I thought it best to send along another, more suitable motif:
Hawaiian Flower
3.5 inches
Someone might be getting a blanket of Hawaiian Flowers for Christmas this year… mum’s the word!
Here is the swap gallery if you want to see what everyone else got. ^_^
March 23rd, 2009 mio I’ve been finishing up my swap stuff lately, and had a gig yesterday, so no pictures for you here today.
I’m hoping to get the next set of tutorials up tomorrow. In preparation, your homework is to go look at these examples of what not to make using what I’ve taught you.
