SPIRIT OF FLORA

Picture
I love designing crochet along projects and enjoy turning my inspiration source into crochet motifs for you all to work through.
I tend to design my CALs in the same way, intending them to be used as a learning tool to guide you through lots of techniques,
so that they start relatively easy and get progressively harder.
 
This project differs to my past CAL projects in that I want to encourage you to release a little of your own design potential to create
a unique and personal project. I have designed 12 patterned square blocks along with two plain blocks, all of which will be shown
in alternative colour orders using a palette of 13 yarn shades. You can seek out the shades I have used from your local Stylecraft
yarn stockist or purchase a starter pack.

Alternatively, you could choose to stash dive and use up some of the yarns you have hidden away in your special place at home!
Either way, the emphasis will be on creating a project that suits your style and purpose. You could choose to make a large blanket
using 48 crochet squares or you might want to make a smaller one using fewer motifs or fewer repeated blocks.
You might want to make a bag, a cushion or a shawl for example.

There are endless possibilities and I really hope you will feel inspired to join me on this exciting block a month journey.
You can find more information about the project and can subscribe to receive download copies of Inside Crochet Magazine by following this link, or you can choose to take out a paper magazine subscription by following this link.
