Panoplie des points au crochet présentée sous la forme d'une écharpe comme catalogue des principaux points au crochet.

Chevron. Ripple. Wave. Zigzag. Call it what you like, but this little stitch is a winner. Recently, I've been working on a pattern for a magazine and I needed to straighten up the top and bottom edges so that I could stitch it closed. I also had lots of lovely people on Instagram asking me about the pattern. So here you are. Fresh off the hook. I worked on two different versions- you can choose the one you prefer. Mine are just small samples, but you can adjust the pattern to make it as mahooosive as you like- I'll explain how. And I've also written the patterns in both UK and US terms and I've (badly) drawn a chart for each. Cos I'm nice like that. As you can see from my photos, a bit of blocking would do wonders for the edges, but as I said, this one's straight off the hook and I really can't be bothered.* *I totally understand the need to block certain items; It relaxes the stitches and defines the shaping. I know that. I am just too lazy. Do block yours. It will look a gazillion times better. UK patterns Work in rows. At the end of each row, turn your work. Stitches sl st = slip stitch dc = double crochet htr = half treble crochet tr = treble crochet dtr = double treble crochet tr3tog = treble 3 together (over three stitches) dtr cl = double treble cluster To make the tr3tog stitch: 1. Yarn over hook, hook into first stitch. 2. YOH, pull yarn through stitch (3 loops on hook). 3. YOH, pull yarn through first 2 loops (2 loops on hook). 4. YOH, hook into second stitch. 5. YOH, pull yarn through stitch (4 loops on hook). 6. YOH, pull yarn through first 2 loops (3 loops on hook). 7. YOH, hook into third stitch. 8. YOH, pull yarn through stitch (5 loops on hook). 9. YOH, pull yarn through first 2 loops (4 loops on hook). 10. YOH, pull yarn through all loops. To make the dtr cl stitch: 1. Wrap yarn twice over hook, hook into next stitch. 2. YOH, pull yarn through stitch (4 loops on hook). 3. YOH, pull yarn through first 2 loops (3 loops on hook). 4. YOH, pull yarn through next 2 loops (2 loops on hook). 5. Wrap yarn twice over hook, hook into same stitch. 6. YOH, pull yarn through stitch (5 loops on hook). 7. YOH, pull yarn through first 2 loops (4 loops on hook). 8. YOH, pull yarn through next 2 loops (3 loops on hook). 9. YOH, pull yarn through all loops. Yellow Chevrons Your foundation chain needs to be a multiple of 12, then add 1 more.

It's very satisfying to crochet big crochet blankets. While you work you can concentrate on the details and admire the effect.

So, hip hip hooray, another blanket finished! Thank Goodness! I still have another blanket almost finished, but boy am I churning these babies out! I cannot believe that I was muppet enough to take on three blankets at the same time. What was I thinking. It's my downfall. I don't plan. I should plan more, but it would appear that it's just not me. Now, I was going to name this blanket 'Hearts and Stars', simply because it consisted of a centre which looked pretty and star like, and the second round looked like little hearts smiling at you. That soon changed though, when, as I was doing the outer edging, one by one, each male in the house came by and said 'I like that, who's it for? Can I have it?' So it became the 'All Boy's Blanket' just because I won't get a look in! This blanket was semi planned. In the sense that I had it in mind to do a blanket in these colours. A few years ago, I was given a craft book as a gift. It was really before I had embarked on my crafting journey. I had left work and knew I was going on some sort of crafty adventure, but I hadn't committed as to which one. In my head it was supposed to be sewing. The book was Nicki Trench's Homemade Gifts. I couldn't knit, or crochet but I did feel inspired. I fell in love with a particular blanket. This one. It made my heart skip. I ♡LOVED♡ the idea of having a picnic blanket that was handmade. I loved the blue of the blanket and the burst of colour in the flowers. At that moment in time I could but dream, as I hadn't the faintest idea of how to work a hook. When I started to learn to crochet I had several blankets in mind that I knew I had to get out of my system. This was one of them. One day I picked up a ball of yarn. It was one ball. It was all the shop had but I liked the colour so much. A couple of years later I saw a pile of the same coloured yarn and snapped it up so happy with my delicious little purchase. It remained in a box ready for the right moment. I did love Nicki Trench's blanket, but reading The Royal Sisters Blog one day and seeing Michelle's 'Grandma All Square' blanket, I loved her little squares of goodness. I could see the hearts and stars popping out. Suddenly I was thinking what a perfect blanket this would be to use my yarn stash for. So the squares were made bit by bit. The very lovely and talented Michelle has provided a fantastic tutorial to go with this blanket. Now, I'm not entirely sure why, but I didn't follow it to the letter. I think I just looked at a motif and made one up from the picture, so my squares are a little different, and I didn't do the 'join as you go' method either that Michelle uses. So although, it's not entirely the same, along with Nicki Trench's blanket for colour inspiraion, Michelle's blanket provided the main inspiration for the construction. As usual, me being the impetuous, impulsive, non thinking muppet that I am, I realised half way through putting on the outer edging, that I had not got enough petrol blue to edge all the little circles, sew it all up and add a border. Realising that this was indeed discontinued yarn meant a lot of internet searching and a lot of waiting. So the 'All Boy's Blanket' had to be put on hold. Happily enough though, as seen from a couple of posts ago, this saw the unexpected making of my previous blanket so I cannot complain! I was getting so excited seeing these little squares all coming together. I was so glad I took it away with me. It was bliss sitting out in the garden on a beautiful day working on it. It was lovely to lay it all out and get a feel for how it was coming along. The Bears had taken a real shine to it and Mr H proclaimed it was by far his favourite. The border was a tricky one. I had limited yarn, and, although I had wanted a minimal border on this one, it had to be a bit more minimal than I perhaps would have liked. No matter. A couple more rounds would have been preferred but I am happy with the result. Seeing it finished and draped ready for use, it made my heart sing! I do love it, I REALLY REALLY love it. I know this will be a well used blanket, and that in itself makes me deliriously happy. There is nothing nicer than seeing something that you have spent hours and hours making being used and loved. A seriously good feeling! So, another blanket ticked off the list. Not sure I will get my hands on it, but I think it may be snapped up and taken on the odd picnic or two...... The blanket was made using different scraps of yarn I had available in my stash. I'm definitely a mix and match kind of girl. I don't think i've yet to make something that was all in one brand. Gasp, shock horror, but it works for me. Righty ho, on to blanket number three now. Just a few more squares to add, a border to put on and some ends to sew in and I will be finished and ready for a post! You sick of blanket show and tell yet?!!!!! xxx

Hello. How are you going today? I have got the next bit of the crochet along for you today, so here what I've done: After the aqua and red outlined cluster pattern, and the 1 row of blue hdc, I turned the work and went back with another row of blue hdc. Next was a row of pale pink hdc, then turn the work and go back, so you end up with a double row of pale pink hdc. Next is a 4 row pattern called Catherine Wheel. Special Abbreviation CL (Cluster) : work [yo, insert hook, yo, draw loop through, yo, draw through 2 loops] over the number of sts indicated, yo, draw through all loops on hook. Row 1(wrong side) : In red, join and make 1ch in first st (counts as first st), 1sc in next st, * skip 3sts, 7dc into next st, skip 3 sts, 1sc into each of next 3sts; rep from * to lats 4 sts, skip 3sts, 4dc into last st, turn. Row 2 (right side) : In pink, join to first st and make 1ch, 1sc into first st, 1sc into next st, *3ch, 1CL over next 7sts, 3ch, 1sc into each of next 3 sts; rep from * to last 4 sts, 3ch, !cl over last 4 sts, skip tch, turn. Row 3 (wrong side) : still with pink, 3ch, 3dc into first st, * skip 3ch, 1sc into each of the next 3scs, skip 3ch, 7dcs into the loop that closed next CL; rep from *to end, finishing with skip 3ch, 1sc into each of last 2sc, skip tch, turn Row 4 (right side) :In red, join and 3ch (counts as 1dc), skip first st, 1CL over next 3 sts, * 3ch, isc into each of next 3 sts, 3ch, 1CL over next 7sts; rep from* finishing with 3ch, 1sc into next st,1sc into top of tch, turn. This pattern can be a bit tricky at the start and end of rows, depending on how many stitches are in your blanket, so here is the graphic pattern to help you work out your ends and starts. Just adjust your ends and starts to keep your sides straight, according to where you are in the pattern repeat. (sorry it's a bit blurry, it's getting late here!) Of course you can do this pattern in whatever colours you like! Catherine Wheel Stitch Pattern, from Basic Crochet Stitches , edited by Erika Knight. Next is a chunk of sc rows. Row 1 : (Right side) Lime green, sc across the row, doing 10sc evenly across each pattern repeat of the Catherine Wheel row below to ensure the stitch count stays the same. Turn. Row 2 : (Wrong side) 1ch, skip first st, sc in each st across row. Row 3 : (RS) Mid green, Sc in each st across row, turn. Row 4 : (WS) 1ch, skip first st, sc in eachst across row. Rows 5 -11 : Sc across the row, doing one row of each colour, working all on the right side. Colour sequence that I used : Light blue, red, dark blue, red, dark blue, red, light blue. Next is a chunk of Granny stripe pattern (see earlier pattern notes) in watermelon, spearmint green, and mid blue. You can add more or less granny stripes if you would like. I think I will add a couple more to this chunk, but I haven't quite got to that yet. Ok that's all I have for you at the moment, school holidays are coming up next week, so I might have a bit more time to devote to this while the boys have their holiday sleep ins, so there hopefully won't be quite as big a wait for the next instalment! Sorry for my slowness, but this is a huge blanket and each row is taking ages! Just a note on the yarns I am using, I am using quite a few different Australian brands, (to get a good colour range), mainly Heirloom Colorworks 8ply and Cleckheaton Country 8ply, with some stash bits and pieces as well. I think they are DK equivalent. They are probably hard to find overseas (although Cleckheaton is very common here), so you can use any dk weight yarn that takes your fancy, I like to work with wool, but I am sure it would be just as nice in any yarn you choose. Have a great day! Hello ladies, here is the latest bit of my mixed stripey blanket! Once again, apologies for slowness of my progress, I am doing my best, but crochet time is short at the moment. Anyway, heres what I have done, I finished my block of 5 rows of granny stripe. The colours, watermelon, mint, blue, mint, watermelon. Next row in light blue, sc across, with every 3rd st sc into the space between watermelon clusters. Next row, in pink, (on right side), hdc in each st across, turn, ch2 (count as as 1st st), (on wrong side), hdc in each st across. Next row in light blue, sc each st across. Next I did a section of chevron stripe in dark blue with an aqua stripe. After the chevron stripe section I did a chunk of 5 double rows of sc (10 rows in all) in the colour sequence red, mid green, pale pink, pale blue and lime. If you prefer, you could do double rows of hdc or dc if you want thicker stripes, and you could do more rows if you like, or less! So that is where I am at right now, slowly growing! You might also like: Crochet along update #5 Hello! Ok, so here's the next bit I have finished : After the double row of lime sc, I did one more double row of sc in aqua. Next, I did another chunk of a bobble row (1 row of dc in red, 1 row of dc and bobbles in red and blue, 1 row of dc in red) Next, a double row of sc in aqua again Next, 1 row of 4dc cluster pattern in pink, then 1 row of sc in blue, then 1 row of 4dc cluster pattern in light pink, then 1 row of sc in blue . Next is a double row of sc in mid green. Next is a stripe of Catherine Wheel pattern in Pale blue and lime. So that is where I am up to at the moment! Happy crocheting:) Crochet Along Update #6 Well I have been busy crocheting away on my big blanket recently, so I thought it was time for a new bit of the crochet along, in case anyone is still persevering with this on going project! I have put the next 2 photos close together so you can see what I have done in a bit more detail, there is a bit of overlap, but I hope you can see what I mean. Ok, here's what I have added : After the lime and pale blue Catherine Wheel section comes 2 rows of sc in light aqua, (up and back), Catherine Wheel section in salmon and mid blue, 2 rows of sc in mid green, (up and back), 4 single rows of sc alternating dark blue and mid green, 3 rows of tr clusters granny stripes in red, lime, and red again, 2 rows of sc (up and back) in each of the following colours, mid green, pale blue, spearmint, watermelon, and dark blue, a section of outline cluster pattern in pink and light aqua, (see earlier update for this pattern) ....and that's where I'm up to at the moment! I measured my progress so far and it is around 75 cm long so far, so I'm about a third of the way through. How is your blanket growing? Would you like me to organise a little linky thing so we can all share our blanket progress? I will add this post to the bottom of the Crochet along Page so it is easier to find all these updates. Talk soon! xxxxxxxxxxxxxx So here is the new bit I have made since the last update: UPDATE #7 After the pink and light aqua outline cluster pattern, in mint, starting on right side, 2 rows sc (up and back), then in light blue 1 row 4dc cluster pattern, then in dark blue 2 rows sc (up and back), then a section of chevron stripe in red and light pink, then in pale blue 2 rows sc, then a section of bobbles in green and mid blue, then 4 x 2rows of sc in pale blue, celery,red and light aqua, then 3 rows of granny stripes in flamingo, pale pink and flamingo again. So that is where I am up to at the moment! Crochet Along Update #8 Hello. Life has been so busy recently, I'm afraid to say I have let my blogging slip, there has just not been enough hours in the day to find inspiration and take photos for posts. I am busy doing interesting things that I will tell you about soon, just got to find the time to put a few posts together! Anyway, today I thought it was time for an update on the mixed stripe crochet along blanket, I had a look and the last update was way back in April! Yikes! This year has kind of slipped away from me, so I apologise for the lack of posts about this project, I have been distracted up other crochet fun along the way. On the other hand, I have seen lots of great mixed stripy blankets being completed on Ravelry, so obviously you are taking this pattern and running with it yourselves. And I've even seen another crochet along inspired by my blanket and she is much more organised than me! I'm glad you are not necessarily waiting for my updates to forge ahead, it could be a bit frustrating for you if you are! So now I am going to make a concerted effort to finish this blanket! Heres what I have added this week: After the pink granny stripe and 2 rows of sc in red (start 1st row on front then turn and do 2nd row going back), Next: 2 rows sc in green, Next: Catherine Wheel section in sky blue and dark blue (see earlier post for details on Catherine wheel stitch), Next: 2 rows sc in green again. (10 sc in each repeat of the catherine wheel pattern to keep the same stitch count in the rows) Then I did a section of sc stripes, with 2 rows of sc in the following colours: pale pink pale blue pale lime watermelon mid pink watermelon pale lime pale blue pale pink Then I did a row of 4 dc clusters, with 3 stitches between each cluster. (Start this row with 2 dc, miss 3sts the 4dc in next st and so on) Next, 1 row of sc across top of cluster row, with every 4th stitch going into the gap between clusters. So that is where I'm up to at the moment, hoping very much to have another update next week, this is going to be my main project for a while, to try and get it finished! Have a great day, and happy hooking! Crochet Along Update #9 Hello. I have been making some headway with the mixed stripe crochet along blanket, so here is the next bit! After the red dc cluster row and the dark blue row of sc, 1 row of 4dc clusters in spearmint, ( 3 stitches between each cluster), then, 1 row sc in dark blue across top of clusters,, (every 4th sc in gap between clusters), then, skinny stripes, 5 rows of sc, all done on the right side, alternating between pale pink and sky blue, then, a zig zag section in light aqua and flamingo, then, 2 rows sc in mid blue, (up and back), then, 2 rows sc in green, (up and back), then, a section of outlined clusters in pale blue and celery, then, 2 rows sc in dark pink . That's where I am up to at the moment. I thought I would show you a couple of pictures of the blanket at the minute, so you can see what it's looking like all together, (very busy!!) it is starting to get nice and big! I am over half way now, so the end is in sight! I know a lot of you have already gone ahead and finished your blankets, (well done!) but I am still going to complete this project, I'm just a bit slower than you guys! I am lacking a bit of self discipline and let myself get side tracked by other ideas that just have to be made right now! CAL update #10 Hi there. I have been working steadily away at my big blanket now for ages, and I have decided it is big enough! So I have the final instalment for my epically long CAL, and then I will do the edge and it will be finished!! I'm not planning anything fancy for the edge, there is so much going on in this blanket already that I think something plain and simple will be fine. Anyhoo, here is the last !! section of my blanket: After the 2 rows of dark pink, double row of SC in red (right side, then turn work and go back on wrong side), then 1 row of 4dc clusters in sky blue, then 1 row of sc in red, then 1 row of 4dc clusters in spearmint, then 1 row of sc in pale pink, then 1 row of 4dc clusters in dark blue, Then a section of double rows of sc in light aqua red spearmint flamingo pale blue celery Next I did a section of bobble stitch in flamingo and green. Then a double row of sc in celery, and another double row of sc in red. Next I did a section of granny stripes in sky blue and pale blue then sky blue again. The last section of the blanket is 5 double rows of sc in red dark blue mid green celery flamingo.! And that is the end of the main part of the mixed stitch stripy blanket!! Just the edge to go now, so close to finishing, I really want to get this finalised before the weather gets much warmer, it is a very heavy, warm blanket! Thank you if you are still with me on this CAL, I know I have been unreliable in it's progress, and a lot of people have got on with it and made up their own sequence, which is great. I have seen many beautiful blankets finished months ago! I apologise for my poor CAL admin duties, it seems I am not great at regular postings, maybe next time I will choose a smaller, more manageable project! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the process, and created something unique and special along the way! These instructions will be put onto the CAL page so that anyone can have a go at making their own mixed stripy blanket when ever they like, it's never too late to join in! I'll be back with a post about the edging and a few pics of the whole thing finished, this blanket deserves a tadah, even if we are all sick of the sight if it!! :) Have a great day y'all, and thanks for visiting! CAL update #11 - The edge! Well, I have come to the end of my CAL, it's been a big project and taken longer than I expected, but it feels great to finally complete this second mixed stripy blanket. All we have left to do is edge the blanket. You can choose to edge it with whatever border you like, I have chosen something very simple and plain as I think there is plenty going on in this blanket already! :) I chose to use flamingo for the edge, just because I still had a big ball left. I couldn't face weaving in all those ends so I have made a casing edge that encloses all the ends without having to weave them in. Lazy, I know, but I am happy with how it looks and it's chunkiness makes the blanket nice and sturdy. I used a hook one size smaller so it wouldn't be too loose (3.00mm) So anyway, in the edge colour, crochet a row of dcs down the side of the blanket, spacing your stitches as evenly as possible. Push all ends to the back and crochet around them. After the first row, turn and do a row of dcs back along the previous row. Do this twice more so you have 4 rows of dc in total. Do the same thing along the other side. Next, simply fold the edge over and with a needle and wool, and stitch the top dc to the loops of the first row of dcs, where they attach to the side of the blanket. Put the loose ends to the inside of the fold and they are enclosed as you sew. And that is it! This is the second time I have made the edge and I love how easy it is! So that is the end of the CAL, I hope you enjoyed making this blanket if you have taken part, Now that the instructions are finished, they will be there for anyone to have a go at whenever they want. I've got a little tadah tomorrow to show you how it looks all completed.

Hola¡¡¡¡¡ Hoy es el día de la presentación del Reto Amistoso nº 45 que organiza nuestra amiga Karina del blog arte hechizada correspondiente al mes de septiembre. Muchas felicidades por este reto tan bonito¡¡¡¡ Ta-dah¡¡¡¡¡ Cojín de trapillo a crochet El reto de este mes consiste en tejer un cojín de grannys. Mi cojín está tejido con trapillo y los colores que he escogido son el naranja, crudo y azul claro. He utilizado el ganchillo del nº 10 y mide 40 x 40 cm. Este es el patrón que propuso Karina. Ta-dah¡¡¡¡¡ Para cerrar el cojín he cosido cuatro botones de cerámica de diferentes colores. Que rápido se teje con trapillo, en un momento se teje un granny y con una vuelta de punto bajo he unido los dos grannys. Esta es mi versión, espero que os guste. Y así de alegre queda en mi sofá. Aquí podéis ver en el lateral del blog de Karina a las 59 participantes de este reto amistoso. Gracias a todas¡¡¡¡¡ y nos vemos en el siguiente reto. Que tengáis un feliz día. Susana.

For Week 16 (and for 1 week only ;) ) we have a total of 6 rows! :) This is because I release the first 2 rows for each week every Monday over on Instagram and felt that the ‘Basketweave̵…

My lessons are not free, my students pay money for them, but I can tell you (and I know it's going to sound cheesy but that's the way it is) that these pictures make my work worthwhile to me. I feel like this grandma always boasting about her grandchildren... Mis clases no son gratis, yo cobro un dinero por ellas, pero os puedo asegurar (y ya se que va a sonar cursi, pasteloso, afectado y amanerado, pero es así) que para mi la mayor satisfacción es cuando mis alumnas me mandan estas fotos. Me pongo muy pesada pidiendo fotos siempre, lo se, pero es que no sabéis lo que disfruto. Estoy como una abuela presumiendo de sus nietos, se me cae la baba, qué se le va a hacer... (madre mía, de viejecica voy a ser insoportable...) Ahí os dejo con algunos de los trabajos de mis alumnas. Auténticas maravillas que me hacen pensar cada vez que las miro que CÓMO ES POSIBLE QUE AÚN NO ESTÉIS TODOS TEJIENDO VUESTRA PROPIA COLCHA DE GANCHILLO?

These blankets are really starting to show their personalities and it's been such a joy to see you bringing all your different creation...

お待たせしました❗️❗️お正月ヴァケーションスペシャルとして色々やれなかったことをやってみようと思います。まずは以前編んだダイアゴナルステッチの玄関マット。こちらの編み方を公開しようと思います。前回編んだ玄関マットは毛糸だまの編み図を参考にしたので、載せられなかったのです。なので私なりにアレンジした編み方を掲載しますねー。まずは編み図です。ダイアゴナルステッチは４目１模様になります。希望の長さの模様の数に端の部分、３目を足してください。今回は３模様を編むので、３模様×４目で１２目。これに３目足して１５作り目します。まずは立ち上がりの鎖を１目編んで細編みを１目編みます。次に鎖を３目編みます。最初に細編みしたところに３目長編みを編みます。作り目を３目飛ばして４目のところに細編みを編みます。そうしたら鎖を３目編...ダイアゴナルステッチ、横から編む。
