Now here is a recently finished project! As in - finished yesterday. :D A wonderful pattern with an almost architectural structure. It's called "Lucky Moments" but I'd like to rename to "A study in Bobble Stitch Variations". :D It's made from a whooping 1750m/350g 3ply yarn.

Pattern: Lucky moments by Julita Janicka
Yarn: Bobbelscheune 3ply from my Adventcalendar 2021

The middle section of the crochet blanket I currently work on is ready. The project is inspired by the vibrant colors of #Mexico - and is hopefully going to be shipped there some time soon!

Fair Warning: Mushroom Spam incoming soon, latest once I took them out for a photo shoot. LOL Finished the little guy yesterday evening, thus there's just a crappy "Yay, I'm done!" picture. Showing him off with his bigger sibling.
I'm very much still learning Amigurumi, so this time, it was about practicing with smaller yarn. Which I prefer to the Velvet yarn, as I can actually see the stitches. :D

I hope to show off something recent soon again, but until then, have some more older makes.
This one was super relaxing to make and now has a good home with my aunt, who jumped on it immediately, as she adored the colors. :-)

My posting has slowed down a bit and that's ok. There's 164 of you following my crafting journey since I joined here back in January, and for this I thank you.
Thank you for sharing the love of crochet and handmade art with me and thank you for being an amazing community.

Today I'm showing you another cowl that could double as a headwrap. I'm still not a cowl-person, but I very much like the yarn and how it pooled. :-)

I'm also dabbling a bit with Bluesky. The weekly prompt in one of the crochet Threads there was neckwear: cowls, loops scarfs etc.
I'm not a huge fan of cowls, but was intruiged with the Moebius technique, so gave this a try. Bonus: it also doubles as a headwrap. And the yarn is beautiful.

I finished the pair of Mittens I started last Tuesday. I'm a tad disappointed by the yarn; the colour started out super vibrant and became muted throughout the same skein. It's not the first time I observed this. Ah well, the mittens are still fun. Also, Anniversary! These are the 20th pair of Wyverns & Witchlings Mittens I've made. :D

That one was a cool project. A Newsboy hat made from recycled jeans cotton yarn, with an actual Jeans Button as an accent. You know what's cool about Jeans Buttons? No sewing, they are hammered in. :D

Yesterday I spent the majority of my day waiting in waiting rooms. My yarn and hook kept me occupied with a pattern I can do almost by heart. First mitt almost done, will get the pair finished at the weekend latest, I hope. #wipwednesday

Some projects are harder to capture in a picture than others. Like this rectangular stole. Did I mention it has glitter in it? Today is a day that asks for glitter to get through it.

The details in that beauty are great, I love all the structure. Lots of bobble stitches in variations. (.... though not as many as in my current WIP)
I remember I made this shawl for a MAL over on Ravelry (Make-Along) with the topic Earth and my inspiration was Sedona.
The pattern itself was also a CAL (Crochet Along) by the Designers, but I made it later. In any case - I love the composition of this pattern. Bonus - the yarn is from a small yarnwinder in my country. As small as our country is, that makes her local to me. :D

This is a very special piece. In one of my yarn surprise boxes, there was this crazy luxurious yarn:
40% Wool - Merino
25% Camelid - Llama
20% Silk
15% Cellulose - Linen / Flax

I was almost scared to use it and searched the longest time for a fitting project. I eventually decided on the Shawl of the Moirae and I think it's such a special piece.

Let's talk about blocking your crochet pieces. Blocking is magic and can bring your project to a whole new level.
Swipe to see what this snowflake ornament looked like before and during blocking. In this case I was also working with starch, which I don't do for shawls. But it's useful for an ornament.
By the way - you don't need expensive equipment to block something. In this case, I used a kids' playmat and some pins. You could also use a folded up towel.
