Wild women dance between worlds.

Valeria is a crochet tassel collar that has a beautifully shaped leather neckline. The collar has strings on both sides for you to tie them on your back - this way it stays still even while dancing!

The pattern is available in English (US crochet terms) and Finnish.

The pattern includes:

  • Step-by-step written instructions
  • Printable pattern for the leather part
  • Progress photos
  • Diagrams with explanations
  • Two videos
  • 17 pages
  • Size options: XS/S and M/L.

The size is adjustable. The smaller one fits for about 80-90 cm bust, and the bigger size for about 90-100cm (at least).

Skill level: intermediate-advanced.

You only need to know how to do a chain stitch, single crochet and a double crochet. You will learn how to combine leather and crochet, add beads to your crochet piece, and attach tassels.

  • Hook size 3 and 5 mm
  • Sport or DK weight yarn 100 g - 150 g
  • A piece of leather or thick fabric (26 x 18 cm). Please, use recycled!
