Welcome to the second week of the One Evening Mystery make-a-long (MAL). Hope you got a smooth start with last week’s mug wrap. I know that to some of you it looked a little too easy, but I thought it would be nice to mix up different skill levels and techniques. And no doubt that today’s pattern will keep you energized and focused! Let me introduce One Evening Bauble to you. The bauble pattern has now landed in your Ravelry library and is ready for download. And if you do not own the pattern yet but would like to join our One Evening Mystery MAL, you can grab your copy HERE on Ravelry. As you probably know, I am a bit obsessed with making mandalas and round shapes are just my favourite of all the shapes. This time of the year gives an excuse to crochet more circles and baubles to decorate our homes. And if you are not in a holiday mood, making a cute colorful bauble can become a sort of relaxation. My dog loved to play with crochet baubles, too! (well, of course, under a strict supervision) One Evening Bauble uses overlay and brioche crochet techniques at the same time. So, if you haven’t tried none of those yet, here is the chance to upgrade your crochet skills. You will need a small amount of yarn in 4 colors. I am using Scheepjes Catona, which is 100% mercerized cotton. And if you bought a ready kit from Taemombo, then you should have enough yarn to make 4 baubles (as well as 4 mug wraps, and more of the projects which will come in next weeks). Again, the pattern includes a detailed photo-tutorial to help with the color placement, and a video tutorial explaining both techniques. I have also recorded a short video about embroidery with beads, which you can also add to your projects from the make-a-long. All links are in the pattern. See you next Friday again, with a new mystery something 😊 Subscribe to a newsletter not to miss a single post. You can also follow me on Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram.
