Having just finished a three-part "How-to" crochet series for Simply Knitting I thought I'd share a pic of the project I've designed to go with part one, a very simple baby jacket called "Cherry Blossom". I crocheted it in my alpaca/wool/nylon dk yarn which is just gorgeously soft. The alpaca makes it more silky feeling than fuzzy so it's very low on "itch factor". The current shades are here with more in the pipeline as I love dyeing it! The yarn is also available in the same shades in a 4ply weight and makes scrummy socks. I have a new sock pattern for the sock yarn that my lovely friend Vicky has just test-knitted for me but more of that later....
(ps. Crochet part two has just gone into the shops so look out for my crocheted rucksack. Check back shortly on the website for a very special offer on the yarn and the notions pack. Pic to follow....)
