Daisy Vanity Set Crochet Vintage Pattern


I love, love, love this motif.  Well written by the Designer, I bring to you a vintage crochet Daisy Vanity Set Pattern that is reformatted and digitally improved.

At the time of testing the integrity of the written pattern, I used a worsted yarn and fell in love with the design and decided to try my hand at making a small afghan.  I'm not one to work on projects of this size, but I absolutely love how the daisy flower is turning out on this.

Here is one of the motifs I have completed.  I have a ways to go, but I will publish when I finish the afghan.





It also gives me the opportunity to work with different color combinations, which absolutely scares me considering that I am colorblind.

I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I do.  The design on this motif gives it so many possibilities other then a vanity set.

Consider pillows, purses, afghans, valances, baby blankets, table runners with just a change of yarn, thread or hook size and you are well on your way to possibly creating numerous articles with this motif.

You can find this pattern here.

Thank you for looking and enjoy,

Debra

Vintage Jewelry



Today was about listing vintage jewelry.

My Daughter gave me yarn as one of my Christmas gifts this year, so I made a chain scarf and added a vintage piece to it.

What do you think?




















I am addicted to making these chain scarves.

This particular vintage piece of jewelry, I decided to keep for myself.  I just think it is different and I can use it on an assortment of clothing.

Anyway, here are a few of the pieces that I listed today.





See you tomorrow,

Debra
