inside crochet 33 ::

The newest issue of Inside Crochet hit the shops the Friday before last and once again it looks fantastic!



One of my patterns is featured, this time a chunky chain necklace, named Jesamine.



These were so much fun to make and when Claire asked me to make lots in different colours, I knew they would look great in the photo shoot.

The pattern itself is a lovely quick to make project, but the finished item is so much fun.

There are so many great patterns in this issue, but a couple of my favourites, and pieces I'd love to make, if only I had time, are the Mod Squad Sweater by Amy Depew and the Lulu Leggings by Pauline Turner.




Both are items I don't think many people would have dreamed possible for crochet and I guess that's what I particularly love about them and I think this freshness towards an old craft is what's making the new Inside Crochet so utterly wonderful!

Photography is by the superbly talented Britt Spring.

  1. Your chunky chain necklace is AMAZING!! And you are right, it's very refreshing to see such different crocheted items. Those leggings are to die for and the cardigan, I would never ever thought that was crochet!! xx

  2. Fab necklace! It would also make an interesting alternative to bunting!
