New design Announcement
I have some exciting news to share with you all!!
I am getting Married next year 😁
I have been engaged to my amazing partner for 4 years and finally, after a couple of years have made a date for our wedding. We are hoping to have a relaxed wedding, something small and cosy. We are hoping April next year, so fingers crossed we can get everything booked soon so we have a date set in stone.
Almost 2 years ago i designed the Ocean of Love wrap for me to wear for my wedding. I absolutely love this wrap. It can be worn so many different ways. It is a great pattern to work up for gifts too.
Then i designed a shawl for my best friend to ask her to be my Maid of Honour. I never wrote down the pattern, because back then i did not feel it worthy enough to publish. I made the shawl in Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable - Dragonfly. I used 3 skeins to make a shawl big enough for my best friend to wrap herself up in.

Now that we have decided on a time frame that we want to get married, i got thinking that i should write my Maid of Honour pattern up. Then everything snowballed from there. As any designer will tell you, once you get 1 idea, 10 will follow, and that is exactly what happened.
Last month i re made the Maid of Honour shawl, with a few adjustments to the border. I used a cake of Wolltraum 200g in Wild horses. This yarn is a 4ply/ fingering / #1 weight yarn. I wanted the shawl to have a nice drape so i used a bigger hook than recommend.
And here is the result...
I am in love with this shawl. I may also have a slight obsession with mustard too.
I am so excited to be releasing this pattern soon because i have another 3 patterns to form a wedding series. The other patterns i am planning are for the flower girl, mother of the Bride and the Bride. Once all 4 patterns have been released i plan to add these patterns as an optional E-Book on Ravelry for a discounted price.
As you can see, the idea of re making 1 shawl has turned into 4 designs.
Maid of Honour will be the crochet along in the Buttonnose Crochet CAL group for June 2017.
Estimate release date will be end of May.
Until next time
