IT'S A FILET CROCHET CHRISTMAS ($6.75) by Hartmus Hass.
|
More of Mr. Hass' designs, this time for Christmas: Bethlehem Night mantel scarf,
Snowstar doily, Snowflake pillow, Christ Bells pillow, Festive Fir Tree
pillow, and Candlelight centerpiece. Instructions are given for adjusting
the length of the mantel scarf, and I believe the centerpiece could be made
longer with a little planning because it starts at the center. All are
made with size 10 cotton thread. |

length), Bolero Topper, Soft-Style Pullover (crew neck and hip length),
Pansy-Edge Tunic (low round neck, wide sleeves, and thigh length), and
Hooded Chill-Chaser (2 button tab front, big sleeves, and hip length). All
5 patterns are sized for: small (30"-32"), Medium (34"-36"), Large

REVERSIBLE RIPPLE AFGHANS ($7.50) by Darla J. Fanton |
All 5 of these designs look quite different from one front to the back: Relaxation,
Rose Garden, Yuletide, Crisscross, and Baby Puffs. There is a "stitch
review" of crocheting with the double-ended crochet hook, and each pattern
gives you instructions for any special stitches used in the individual
pattern. All are made with worsted weight yarn. |

Snow (appliqued snowflakes), Christmas Eve (jacquard style), Winter
Wonderland (appliqued tree), and O Christmas Tree (beads form border of

are BIG socks!), and all are made with sport or worsted weight yarn.

POPCORN STITCH DOILIES ($6.75) by Josie Rabier..
SORRY, ALL GONE!
|
Have you noticed that crocheters are becoming like murder-mystery fans, they have their
favorite author/designers? Ms. Rabier has many fans and this set of 5
patterns shows why; all of them use the popcorn stitch a lot: Amorous
(24"), Courtship (23"), Stargazer (20"), Love Affair (14", a variation of
the old-time grape doily), and Romance (26"). All use size 10 cotton thread.
