STYLECRAFT CLASSIQUE COTTON....Fabulous cottons
I'm working on several designs for Stylecraft and one of the wonderful yarns I am using is
Classique Cotton DK, 4mm hook.
A wonderful cotton to crochet with....it's the first cotton yarn I've used that
hasn't kept splitting....no stopping me now.
Just some of the yummy colours I'm playing hooky with...
and new colours being added all the time.
Sorry I cant show you any of the designs to be released in London, in February.
Thanks Stylecraft for asking me to design for you, and thanks for choosing 6 designs and then adding 3 more....I am so excited about all of these projects.
It's been a great deal of fun working with such a lovely team at Stylecraft.
ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND XX

HELPFUL NOTE...
Someone has pinned my picture of SPOT MOSS STITCH onto Pinterest from
BLOGLOVIN...
and I thank you very much,
BUT.....
IT IS INCORRECT
They have added a caption on how to do this version of the stitch INCORRECTLY
and a lot of others have pinned it from them...oooops!
If you pin a copy please make sure you have the correct info.
If you followed their instruction you would end up with A VERTICAL STRIPE MOSS STITCH
and not the dot effect in the picture.
