<br />
Row 1: sc around.<br />
<div class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span class="s1" style="font-family: ".SFUIText"; font-size: 17pt;">Row 2: ::(ch4, 7 dc in 4th ch from hook, sl st in sc on previous row 3 stitches before base of this stitch, then cont with 8 dc in 4th chain from hook, <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>sl st in in top sl st to form circle), sl st in 3nd sc in row 1, sc in each of next 15 (or as many as desired) sc:: repeat around</span></div>
<div class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 20.3px;">
<span class="s1" style="font-family: ".SFUIText"; font-size: 17pt;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span class="s1" style="font-family: ".SFUIText"; font-size: 17pt;">This stitch gets a little fiddly but I found that tacking the circle down on both sides gives it a nicer finish. I recommend making the first ch of the ch4 fairly long in order to be able to fit 15 stitches into it. After doing 7 dc, turn the half circle so the flat part is in line with the edge of the blanket and slip stitch into a stitch 3 (or 2) before on first row to tack it down on the right side. This is where having a longer first ch will help because when you are trying to get a dc into that first ch again it’s harder to access it since it’s now attached to the blanket. I sometime pull the half circle away from the blanket so I can see where the ch stitch is and can get my hook into it. After one or two more dc into it, it’s fairly easy to finish the rest of the 8 stitches. </span></div>
<div class="p1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 20.3px;">
<span class="s1" style="font-family: ".SFUIText"; font-size: 17pt;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span class="s1" style="font-family: ".SFUIText"; font-size: 17pt;">I apologize for not explaining this better and will put up a video eventually. </span></div>

</div>Again with the not so awesome photo, it's not easy to see but the edging looks like little marching turtles with a body, a head and little legs. I apologize for the pattern, I made up a stitch to get the legs to look right, sorry if it's not entirely clear. I plan to post a video of the stitch. <br />
<br />
In between the turtles, you can do as many sc to separate them - I started with 3 but then decided to spread them out more to 6 on the next side of the blanket to save some yarn and also so the turtles could be seen a little better. So I did two sides with them close and two with them a bit farther away.<br />
<br />
Materials:<br />
Size 10 crochet thread<br />
Size 7 hook 1.65<br />
<br />
Turtle leg stitch: Begin as for a tr, yo twice, insert hook in indicated stitch, yo and pull through loop, yo and pull through two loops on hook - now ignoring remaining loops on hook, ch 6 then sl st in first ch while also pulling through next loop on hook, yo and pull through last two loops on hook to complete tr.<br />
<br />
Cluster stitch: (Yo, insert hook in indicated st, pull through 2 loops) 3 times, yo and pull through all 4 loops on hook. 3 dc cluster.<br />
<br />
Round 1: Sc around, sl st in 1st sc.<br />
<br />
Round 2: Ch 1, sc in same st, *sk 2 sc, 8 tr in third sc with turtle leg stitch in first and last tr, sk 2 sc, sl st in next sc, ch 2 then cluster in same sc, sl st in next sc, sc in next 3 (or 6) sc* rep from * around.Yarn Crazy Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04354263016806693666noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16944615.post-7110608771959219902009-11-11T17:41:00.000-08:002010-10-06T19:56:47.619-07:00Star edging<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFV7brn4rR4jGW4RoHUFaXGYdsqf0ypymTnb9Ew63dr13thmIBSYV4LMDZpC48gbdC5W8obXEiIN2-srvkRe52rviFqryiXp02ITmuZnI67FPk5RwPn5t15b1du5I_63Vpefd8/s1600-h/CIMG8171.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" sr="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFV7brn4rR4jGW4RoHUFaXGYdsqf0ypymTnb9Ew63dr13thmIBSYV4LMDZpC48gbdC5W8obXEiIN2-srvkRe52rviFqryiXp02ITmuZnI67FPk5RwPn5t15b1du5I_63Vpefd8/s400/CIMG8171.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This isn't the best picture, I'm a horrible photographer.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I wanted to edge a flannel that had a heart pattern and this is what I came up with. It involves crossed triples into the first round of the edging and is probably an intermediate pattern. Please let me know if the instructions are unclear.<br />
<br />
Materials: Size 7 hook 1.65 mm<br />
Cotton thread, size 10<br />
<br />
Round 1: Sc around, sl st to first sc.<br />
<br />
Round 2: Ch 6, skip 2 sc, dc in next, (skip 2 sc, ch 3, dc in 3rd sc) repeat between () around, sl st in 3rd ch of ch6.<br />
<br />
Round 3: *[Sl st in ch 3 space, tr in 2nd open sc below in row 1, (hdc, tr, sc, tr, hdc) all in the same ch3 space, tr in 1st open sc below, sl st in same ch3 space], 4 sc in next ch3 space* Repeat between * to beginning, join with sl st.<br />
<br />
I have attached a video of me doing the crossed heart stitch. I did it quickly and probably should have reshot it because I actually made a bit of an error in it (can you spot it!?) but this is just how life is these days. As good as it gets. It's a free pattern. If I was charging for it, I'd make more effort to make it perfect. Probably. Possibly.<br />

So I made up this pattern which will make pockets and dividers that I can put all my tons of crap into. And I’m also using up some of the crappy ancient worsted weight nursing home yarn I have a ton of!<br /><br />Materials:<br />Scraps of worsted weight yarn in various colors<br />H hook<br />Yarn needle<br /><br />Size:<br />This yarn fits a purse with an interior pocket 14 inches long and 6 inches wide.<br /><br />Note:<br />Turning chain does not count as a stitch. </div><div>For more information on surface crochet, check out this link: <a href="http://http//www.geocities.com/mwillsondesigns/SlipStitch/slipstitch.html">http://http//www.geocities.com/mwillsondesigns/SlipStitch/slipstitch.html</a><br /><br />Bottom:<br />Ch 58<br /><br />Row 1: Hdc in 3rd ch from hook, working in the back of the chain, hdc in each ch across. 56 hdc. Turn<br /><br />Row 2: Ch 2, hdc in each hdc, turn.<br /><br />Repeat row 2 15 times or until bottom measures 6", changing colors as desired.<br /><br />Sides:<br />On last row of bottom, do not turn, begin working in rounds.<br /><br />Round 1: *Work 20 sc evenly in ends of each row, one sc in corner, sc in front loop only of each stitch on long side*, repeat between * for remaining two sides.<br /><br />Round 2: *Sc in front loop only of 20 sc, sc in both loops of each sc on long side*, repeat between * for remaining two sides.<br /><br />Round 3: Hdc in each stitch around, do not join.<br /><br />Repeat round 3, changing colors as desired, 9 rounds. Join last hdc with slip stitch. Fasten off.<br /><br />Dividers:<br />I used surface crochet to outline where I wanted the dividers to go and give a good foundation for the first row. I divided the length into a small pocket 3", large pocket 8" and another small pocket 3" and then divided one small pocket and the large pocket in half. (See picture.) I made 14 surface crochet across the width, 12 to divide the small pocket, and 32 to divide the large pocket. After making each line of surface crochet, weave in ends on the underside.<br /><br />To build up each divider, hdc in each surface crochet using color of your choice.<br />Turn, ch 2, hdc in each hdc across.<br />Repeat for a total of 12 rows.<br /><br />The hard part... putting it all together:<br />This was pretty difficult/annoying - and probably impossible without the use of a yarn needle. Using a strand of yarn, sew each divider to each other and the walls of the outside. I recommend using safety pins or sewing a scrap of yarn into the wall as a guide to make a straight seam. Mine wanted to go a bit wonky because it was hard to see a straight path through the hdcs.<br /><br />Weave in all the annoying ends. Insert in purse. Fill with crap.</div><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL2084/10986490/19824855/321100633.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL2084/10986490/19824855/321100633.jpg" border="0" /></a> </div>Yarn Crazy Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04354263016806693666noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16944615.post-78106834069908949492008-05-08T13:37:00.000-07:002009-10-28T11:54:57.201-07:00Gentle Waves Edging<a href="http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL2084/10986490/19529924/317311776.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL2084/10986490/19529924/317311776.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL2084/10986490/19529924/317311770.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL2084/10986490/19529924/317311770.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>Materials:Crochet cotton thread size 10<br />Steel crochet hook No. 7<br /><br />Make a chain the length desired.<br /><br />In 2nd ch from hook sc, sc in next ch, * 3 hdc in next ch, skip next ch, 4 dc in next ch, skip next ch, 3 hdc in next ch, sc in next 2 ch.
