I went to several stores until I found four balls of „Lang Yarns Jawoll
Magic“ wool that start with the same
color.
This was necessary because it is rather thin. It is normally used for
socks. Therefore, I need four strands of wool to create something that will be
really warm.
I work with a 3,5 mm hook (UK 9, USA 4 / E).
Bobbles create a beautiful effect and keep you warm. There are several
ways to crochet them. Now I will tell you how I like to do it.
How to create bobbles:
*Yarn over, insert your hook into the desired stitch, yarn over and
pull up a loop, yarn over, pull up a loop and pull this loop through the first
2 loops on your hook.* Now you have an incomplete double crochet. Repeat 5 more
times from * to *. Yarn over and pull this loop through all loops on the hook.
Here, I have crocheted a top made of hdc stitches, one row of popcorn stitches (with 2 dc between the bobbles), two rows of hdc, another row of popcorn stitches, etc.
The bobbles make it warm and stable so that it does not stretch.
It is much easier to crochet such a sturdy cap for oneself, as you know your head form (at least after crocheting some caps) and can always try it on.
And another photo of Yoda:
Sweet chocolate cupcakes for our friends. I liked the algae-lime-icing - it was the perfect contrast to the chocolate flavour.
And if you are a knitter who wants yoda to guard her cup or her baby's bottle (as a cozy), check this out:
Here is a paid pattern if you want him to guard your phone (case):
Of course, I would love to see photos of your creations, if you were inspired by my post!
Whoever does not love has not come to know God,
because God is love.
