Springtime in Alameda
Exceptionally Unique Crochet Artistry
One of a kind crocheted works of art with a fresh boho influence:
“Springtime In Alameda” Crochet Block Patternl
Inspired by the pansies, violets and Johnny-Jump-Ups that bloomed each Spring on my little hometown island of Alameda.
Crochet Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate
(In my humble opinion, this is an excellent “next level” pattern for newbies.)
Hook: G
Yarn: DK/Aran Weight/4
Yarn Brand(s): ScrapBuster
Final Measurements: 6” Block
A Personal Note from the Wand Weaver…
All my patterns are, and will continue to be, based on the concept:
If you can “do” the block, then you can “do” the coat, poncho, or blanket easily. The stitches selected for the garment or afghan are the same stitches that were first learned when crocheting the blocks.
I like that approach personally, as it removes all the worry about the “larger project” and “if I can do it”. Of course you can! The stitches selected for the garment or afghan are the VERY SAME STITCHES you already mastered while the blocks were being completed!
Once the block is learned, then the world of opportunities really opens up and is possible.
This is precisely why I put so much effort into each block pattern.
Small in size, blocks by their very nature involve repetition: THAT’s where you learn the stitch concepts the most rapidly.
Hardest part for most is the Center Circle…just: practice, practice, practice, and about several dozen centers in and you’ll have it. You’ll be dancing around the living room (like I did) because it really is possible to learn how to crochet!
Crochet Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate
Hook: G
Yarn: Hobby Lobby “I Love This Yarn”
This is a “ScrapBuster” design, which literally means: scrap skeins & misc. balls of yarn in a wide range of colors.
