Free Pattern's Outline for a Crochet Necklace

Well, this is quite different from the "Easiest Crochet Necklace" I've shown in the other post, and I've tried to write down an outline of this one's pattern.
For any question just contact me.. I know that probably this is not so clear!
Anyway, here it is:

Materials:
Less than one ball of any colour cotton yarn (worsted weight)
4.00mm hook

Necklace:
Ch77, sc in second ch from hook and in the next 3chs.
Ch76, sc in the 4th ch at the beg of previous ch loop, and in next 3chs, ch1, turn.
Sc in first sc and in next 3 sc, ch80, sc in the 4 sc at the beg of previous row, ch1, turn.
Sc in first sc and in next 3 sc, ch84, sc in the 4 sc at the beg of previous row, ch3 and sl st on the other side of the same closure piece to make a button hole.
Sew a button on the opposite closure piece of the button hole.
Make a flower of any kind (mines are just improvised!) to embellish the necklace, and sew it on the four chains strands.

I've made it even in a bright purple cotton yarn, and I'm really happy with the both.

These are very easy, and I hope you won't have problems making them.
Enjoy!

Giant Granny Bag

Another last year's project made with a beautiful cotton yarn.
I love this bag, especially for the colours which are really bright. I've used this Groovy Crochet' s pattern, but if you know how to make granny squares you won't need any. This is super easy!
Great market and beach bag, I didn't lined it inside, but you can do it if you prefer.
Have fun!

Lion Brand Half Moon Shawl

I've made this shawl as a custom order to match the beret with antique rose applique in the picture below.
The pattern is the Lion Brand "Half Moon Shawl" that everyone has done, but I've added some fringe.
I've made one for me as well in the same color, and I'm really in love with it!
The beret is made from my free "Soft tam beret" pattern, to which I've added a simple crochet contrasting color border and a simple rounded applique.

I think the both are nice, and I love them together..well, I'm proud of my creations!
And I can't stop working with my hooks and needles!!

Crochet Garnstudio Tunic Dress

This Garnstudio tunic dress is wonderful!
I've made it last year and finally I've got the inspiration to take some pictures and show it..
I've used the "DROPS tunic with mussel pattern", an easy but quite long pattern, and a beautiful bright purple cotton yarn.

I'm very happy on how it came out and I sell it on my Etsy shop with a hight price because otherwise I'd love to keep it for myself! :)

I really suggest to try this pattern, it takes some time but the result is lovely!

Others Last Year's Spring Projects

Here's two others no-pattern projects I've made last year..
They're all made with a beautiful bright cotton yarn in different colours.
The first is a lace wrap vest, crocheted with a 4.00mm hook and closed by a small belt (more pics on my Etsy).It tooks some time to make this because of the lace pattern and the three pieces, fronts and back, that I've worked separately.

This other one is a striped top with belt (again more pics here), which was easier to make:
I've started with the sc top of which the ends are sewed together on the back, and then I've worked the rest of the body in rounds from top down, simply increasing some st and changing colour in stripes.
I've added a sc small belt that you can put at the waist's height you prefer!
I like very much how they've came out, and most of all because they're the first projects I've ever made.

Cute Tie-Front Shrug

Here's another last year's creation of which I haven't got a pattern, because it was a sudden inspiration that kept me working with my hook and yarn without rest!
I'm sorry, I would love to share this really cute pattern...
Anyway it's not a very difficoult pattern, and you can try to make it yourself: with 4.00mm hook, start working in one piece from the bottom up, making a ch long enough to wrap around your bust, plus about 40 chs more on each side for the tie. Work in dc across for two rows and then start the body piece, leaving the tie's stitches unworked.

You should work with this motif on the entire body, decreasing a dc on each side (neck shape), until you've reached the armholes. Here you should divide back piece from the two front pieces.
On each front piece continue decreasing at neck sides and start decreasing even at shoulders for some rows. On the back piece, just decrease the same number of stitches you've done for the shoulder's sides of the front pieces.
I don't know how I've made those pretty puff sleeves, maybe it was the fortune of the beginner!!
I'm sure that you can improvise as I did, and make it right!

Another super easy Crochet Necklace

As I've sold this other one in few days, I've decided to make another crochet necklace but in another color.
This one is in a very bright purple cotton yarn and it's made with the same technique as the other, except that I've made three crocheted strands in different lenght, knotted together at the ends.
Same improvised flower, with a button in the center.
I love these necklace, and they are the easiest thing I've ever made!

Scaldacuore (Heart-warmer)

This is a pink cotton shrug I've made last year and of which I couldn't make pictures before. It's one of a series of garments which I've kept it in the wardrobe for an year waiting to make some nice pics!
They're all spring time clothes.
I haven't write down the patterns of all this stuff, but i like to show them hoping they will be of inspiration for crafters who are passing by my blog!
This shrug is made from bottom up in one piece until the armholes, then I've worked separately back and front pieces.
It has 8 rows of continuous dc stitches, and then an openwork dc and ch1 pattern for the higher part of the body.
I think this is really cute, and I hope you'll enjoy it too!
