15/08/2014 by Dada Filed Under: Crochet pillows 14 Comments

It’s been a long time since my last post. I didn’t neglect my blog on purpose. I just was so busy. Busy making my first pdf pattern and tutorial. There were so many things I had to do and learn. Take and pedit photos, learn how to write pattern in Word, write the pattern, check out and test the pattern…

And finally, my very first Flowery granny square cushion pattern and step-by-step tutorial is now available in Dada’s place shop (payment options: Credit cards & PayPal).

You can also buy it in my Ravelry shop and in my Etsy shop. (payment option: PayPal)

*
The tutorial is very detailed (it is written on 18 pages with more then 100 photographs!)and I think that even beginners can try it.

This step by step tutorial includes instruction on how to:
* make a granny square
* join granny squares
* make a border
* make an inner cushion
* make a cushion case
This pattern is written in standard US crochet terms.

I want to thank my friend Sandra for reviewing this tutorial. Sandra is an English teacher and my dear friend. So, Sandra, hvala ti do neba! (thank you so much!)

Flowery granny square

These are my newest granny squares. I’m currently working on the pattern and tutorial (step-by-step with many pictures) for these colorful granny squares.

Actually, I’m making a tutorial for the pillow. I will explain how to make a granny square, how to join them, how to make a border, and finally, how to make a pillow.
I will show how to add fabric (with an inserted zipper) on the back side. It will be very, very detailed tutorial. And hope It will be in Dada’s place shop soon.

Update: The flowery pillow pattern and step-by-step tutorial is now available in Dada’s place shop (payment options: Credit cards & PayPal).

Crochet poncho

Although I didn’t post anything for a while, I was very, very busy. These last few weeks have been very difficult and exhausting for me. There were so many things I had to learn and do… but, now I’m so happy and satisfied because I’ve finally achieved my long-time goal to open Dada’s place shop!
I’ve also managed to finish this poncho, and I’m really happy with how it turned out!

It wasn’t my biggest crochet project so far, but sure it was the most perplexed. I had to figure out how to connect the flowers, how to finish the part around the neck, how and which border to add… It was a lot of work…

… but it was a very creative process, which I love so much! When I think about crochet, first thing (word) that comes to my mind is possibility. There are countless possibilities of combining only a few basic crochet stitches… it’s really fascinating!

I made this poncho using 100% cotton yarn “Tango” from St. George, and 3.5 mm crochet hook.

I’ve already started my next project. It’s a PDF pattern for the Flowery granny square pillow. Something new & colorful. I have to fill up Dada’s place shop! 🙂

Update: I made a free pattern for this flower ornaments, as a part of my free Secret Garden Shawl pattern.
