Patterns, projects and techniques
Who would have thought about combining the masculine structure of Leather with the sift fibers of crochet? Well apparently Makeanddocrew.com did and came up with this fun little project to create your own DIY Coasters. These would make great gifts for a Man cave or den.
I’m always on the lookout for luxurious fibers that elevate my crafting experience. Enter Bubbly Bouclé, a delightful blend of 82% Superfine Alpaca, 13% Merino Wool, and 5% Nylon that has completely stolen my heart.
First and foremost, let’s talk about the texture. The delicate loops of Merino and alpaca spun around a nylon and Merino core create a decadently light and irresistibly soft yarn. It’s as light as a bubble and as cozy as a teddy bear, making every project an absolute joy to work on.
What sets Bubbly Bouclé apart is its versatility. Whether I’m knitting or crocheting, this yarn performs beautifully. When knit at a denser gauge, it produces an opaque, textured fabric that’s perfect for garments and accessories. Conversely, at a looser gauge, it creates a slightly sheer fabric with more prominent loops, ideal for delicate lacework or adding fluffy accents to adorable figurines.
I also appreciate the generous yardage provided by each 100g hank. Despite its lofty construction, Bubbly Bouclé requires surprisingly little yarn to create airy yet cozy projects. And with a range of sophisticated neutrals and vivid brights to choose from, the creative possibilities are endless.
Whether you’re crafting textured fashion pieces, vintage-inspired sweaters, or adorable amigurumi, Bubbly Bouclé is sure to become a staple in your yarn stash. So go ahead, indulge in the luxury of this delightful yarn and let your creativity soar!
