Blown Glass His and Hers Wedding Goblets by Wolf Art Glass
Sunday, January 29th, 2012We worked entirely in pink and lime green color when we blew glass on Friday. These goblets look perfect together for a wedding goblet set! Available here in our Etsy shop.
Interlocking Crochet Colorways
Saturday, January 28th, 2012The interlocking crochet technique opens up a huge range of possibilities. The double-sided patterns are such a bonus, especially when working on blankets and scarves.
Here is a colorway that I have used in a baby blanket for our little friend Sebastian. This is a sample of the same colorway but with a different pattern.
This book has a great set of patterns and teaches the basics of interlocking crochet.
Interlocking crochet is pretty basic once you get the hang of it. You create 2 separate rows of double crochet filet, then each row is worked with a separate color through the mesh of the other color. Now, when I first bought this book, I actually threw it across the room because I could not figure out the stitches. I HIGHLY recommend that you watch these tutorials by the author before you start.

This pattern has a different patterned opposite side, some have the same pattern with just the main dominant color reversed.
Much more to come!
