The details in that beauty are great, I love all the structure. Lots of bobble stitches in variations. (.... though not as many as in my current WIP)
I remember I made this shawl for a MAL over on Ravelry (Make-Along) with the topic Earth and my inspiration was Sedona.
The pattern itself was also a CAL (Crochet Along) by the Designers, but I made it later. In any case - I love the composition of this pattern. Bonus - the yarn is from a small yarnwinder in my country. As small as our country is, that makes her local to me. :D

This is a very special piece. In one of my yarn surprise boxes, there was this crazy luxurious yarn:
40% Wool - Merino
25% Camelid - Llama
20% Silk
15% Cellulose - Linen / Flax

I was almost scared to use it and searched the longest time for a fitting project. I eventually decided on the Shawl of the Moirae and I think it's such a special piece.

Hätte jemand von den #Fürth |er Mastonaut*innen am Karfreitag Lust auf ein Stitch 'n Bitch (geselliges beieinander sitzen und Handarbeit machen)? Ich bin an dem Tag nämlich im Zukunftssalon am Grünen Markt (Marktplatz 4) für den Leihladen zuständig und werde dort also von 15-18 Uhr rumhocken und stricken oder häkeln. Wer mag darf sich gern dazu setzen. Wenn ich dran denke besorge ich auch eine Schachtel Kekse.

Muß mal wieder was herzeigen, was ich fabriziert habe.

Eine gehäkelte Katzendecke. Leider ist das Bild nicht so gut geworden, ich kann einfach nicht fotografieren :blobcatverysad: , aber nun ist es zu spät, die Decke geht nun in einem Paket nach Berlin zu meiner Schwester.
O-Ton mein Bruder: Die Decke ist viel zu schön für sie. 😬
(Das soll vermutlich bedeuten, daß er auch eine will, gnarf)

Let's talk about blocking your crochet pieces. Blocking is magic and can bring your project to a whole new level.
Swipe to see what this snowflake ornament looked like before and during blocking. In this case I was also working with starch, which I don't do for shawls. But it's useful for an ornament.
By the way - you don't need expensive equipment to block something. In this case, I used a kids' playmat and some pins. You could also use a folded up towel.

The pattern for this beauty is called "Dandelion Lane" and the yarn I used reminded me of a Dandelion growing out of a street. Amazing little resilient plants! Also - the shawl has Glitter. Most things are better with Glitter.

Pattern: Dandelion Lane by Grassharp
Yarn: Hobbii Twister Glitter from a Second Choice Bag.

About three years ago I took on the adventure "Elf Coat". It was my first Tunisian Crochet Project and what a learning it has been. The pattern and the resources available from the designer are wonderful and I learned so much from her! The following observations are related to my specific project alone.

- Don't use acrylic yarn for a garment. The static when peeling this coat off is unreal.
- Don't forget gravity: I'm plus size = more yarn = heavier garment = the whole thing stretches when worn. I wanted it to be at my knees, it grew down to my shins.
- Did I mention the static? Seriously, I think that surprised me the most.
- Tunisian Crochet is not my cup of tea. But I'm happy I tried it out.
- Making a garment as a plus size person sucks, unless the garment was specifically designed for plus size.

This is a more recent project, finished last December; therefore the slightly crappy lighting. It's super flowy and delicate, made with lace-weight yarn. And it has glitter! Swipe to the close-up to actually see some of the sparkles.
