Last year the Getty Museum challenged people to recreate famous works of art. The results were sometimes amazing, sometimes hysterical. I decided to try my own recreation using crochet.

I wanted something colorful to cheer me up on these dreary days. Settling on one of Van Gogh’s sunflower paintings, I rummaged through my yarn stash to find the appropriate colors.

Lilac Cluster Stitch

I created this crochet stitch when I designed my Lilac Cluster Beanie and Lilac Cluster Cowl crochet patterns.  The original version of the Lilac Cluster Stitch is worked in the round.  You can find both of these crochet patterns at my Ravelry or LoveCrafts Stores.

 

Lilac Cluster Stitch Video Tutorials

The Lilac Cluster Stitch uses 2 main crochet stitches, the FPDC3TOG or the front post double crochet 3 together and the FPDC6TOG or the front post double crochet 6 together.

You can find a Left Handed Video Tutorial on my YouTube Channel for my Lilac Cluster Beanie Part 1 and Part 2, that shows you how the Lilac Cluster Stitch was originally used.

Lilac Cluster Beanie Video Tutorial Part 1

Lilac Cluster Beanie Video Tutorial Part 2

You can also find more of my Left Handed Video Tutorials on my YouTube Channel.

 

I always wanted to use the lilac cluster stitch in a design that works in rows.  The first crochet pattern I tried with the Lilac Cluster Stitch with rows was the Oyster Shell Scarf.  I loved using this stitch in rows so much that I had to make another crochet design with this crochet stitch!

You can find the Oyster Shell Scarf as a free crochet pattern on my website.  You can also purchase an AD-Free premium copy from my Ravelry or LoveCrafts Store for a small fee.

History behind the Design

The design came about because I have had an Afghan my Gram started over 25 years ago using a flower she designed.  In 2022 I finally decided to take one of her flowers apart from her Afghan.  I wanted to see how she made it so I could finish her Afghan. 

Because I loved her flower design so much that I decided to create the Maes Flower crochet pattern.  I was able to finish my Gram’s Afghan.  Also, my Gram’s Afghan was so easy to put together, that I decided to create another crochet, which I then turned into the Mae’s Flower Garden Afghan crochet pattern in honor of my Gram.

You can find the Mae’s Flower Crochet Pattern that I designed using these flowers free HERE on my website.

Information about the Yarn used in the Summer Convertible Wrap

WeCrochet kindly provided me with the yarn that I used in my Summer Convertible Crochet Pattern.  The yarn I used was CotLin from KnitPicks.  I picked this yarn  because I wanted a nice lightweight yarn that was suitable for Spring and Summer.  The CotLin met my expectations perfectly.  The CotLin yarn from KnitPicks is also a yarn that can be washed over and over again and still hold the shape perfectly.

Fiber Content: 70% Tanguis Cotton, 30% Linen

I wanted to use light colors in my wrap that would help to reflect the sun and to make you want to wear it in the warmer Spring and Summer days. 

I used the colors Snow White (29492)  & Whisper (25328) 

As you can see by the picture below the colors Snow White & Whisper do help to reflect the sun.  The picture below also shows the nice and airy stitch that will keep you cool in the warmer weather.

This is another crochet pattern my Gram designed.  She designed a flower granny square that I found in more of her stuff I inherited of hers over 25 years.

I decided to take apart her flower granny square to see how she designed it.  I did not know what kind of flower she used, so I looked it up on Google and it is a Viola flower. 

You can get the premium version of the Granny Viola Scarf crochet pattern that has 3 crochet patterns in 1 for a small fee, visit my Ravelry or LoveCrafts or Etsy.

Van Gogh’s Sunflowers Crochet Pattern
My Fingers Fly

Last year the Getty Museum challenged people to recreate famous works of art. The results were sometimes amazing, sometimes hysterical. I decided to try my own recreation using crochet. Turns out, one of the biggest challenges was finding a famous painting that looked easy enough to duplicate in yarn but still appealed to me visually. I wanted something colorful to cheer me up on these dreary days. Settling on one of Van Gogh’s sunflower paintings, I rummaged through my yarn stash to find the appropriate colors.

Welsh Poncho Free Crochet Pattern

Welsh Poncho Free Crochet Pattern

 

 

Are you looking to add a little luxury to your wardrobe?  Well, using the Welsh Poncho Free Crochet Pattern will help you achieve just that!

The Welsh Poncho Crochet Pattern uses a crochet stitch that I fell in love with last year, the Triad Stitch.  The Triad Stitch is just like a Puff Stitch, only it is done over 3 stitches.

The Triad Stitch has one meaning that I fell in love with, this is where I came up with it’s name Welsh.  Triad means a Welsh form of literary composition with an arrangement of subjects or statements in groups of three.

If you think about a crochet pattern it is made up of 3 things:

  • using crochet stitches to create the design
  • a composition of writing the crochet pattern
  • taking pictures to showcase the design

I first used the Triad Stitch in my Welsh Braided Cowl Crochet Pattern (see info below)  In the designing of the Welsh Braided Cowl I using another meaning of Triad, the braiding of three things together, this is where the Braided part of the design came in.  You can find out more about this below.

This kind of sounds like an English lesson, doesn’t it?!  lol

Suzy’s Cloths

Suzy’s Cloths – Washcloth and Burp Cloth

The Suzy’s Cloths are the perfect crochet pattern to make and gift to new mother’s at a Baby Shower.

This post contains affiliate links

New mother’s may not realize how much babies get sick during burping or after.  Also, they might not think about putting a cloth or towel on their shoulder or under they baby’s face while burping them.

I don’t know HOW many times I did not do this myself!   It is a great idea to do this, because not only will the parent have to change the baby, but they will have to change themselves.  lol
