Crochet Color Play

October 17, 2013 by jd wolfe

cro color wave afgh 1013

The colors in this babyghan create a lovely, subtle pattern that is simply stunning.  You can read more about the pattern and the choice of color at this blog where you can see better pictures of the pretty afghan.  I like both the color play and the texture of this afghan.  This would make a great scrap project or you could carefully plan ahead and purchase just the right colors to suit decor of the baby’s parents.  Some prefer traditional pastels for baby while others prefer the brighter, more stimulating colors.  This afghan is one of the few where I’ve seen such a successful use of both brights and pastels.  I’m inspired!

Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy Crochet Pattern – A Pretty Little Holiday Make for Battery Tea Lights

If you love adding little handmade touches to your Christmas decorating, this Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy from CraftBits is such a pretty project. It is festive, eye-catching, and just the sort of small crochet make that can add a lovely pop of holiday color to a table, shelf, or mantel.

What I really like about this pattern is that it feels special without being overwhelming. It is a sweet seasonal project for dressing up battery tea lights, and the poinsettia design gives it that classic Christmas look that never gets old. It would be gorgeous as part of a holiday centerpiece or made up in a few sets for decorating around the house.

You might have seen this one featured on Crochet.CraftGossip before, and it is easy to see why it is worth another look. It is cheerful, decorative, and a lovely way to bring a little crochet into your Christmas styling without taking on a huge project.

If you are in the mood for a small festive make, this one is definitely a pretty pick.
