Publishing craft designs in magazines is all about waiting. And waiting. But the waiting eventually pays off, like it recently did for me.
The Winter 2015 issue of Love of Crochet features two typically Suzann-ish scarves.
The Sparkling Snowflake Scarf is a Crochet Charm Lace project, made of small, medium, and large snowflake motifs. The flakes work up quickly in Lion Brand Wool-Ease and Wool-Ease Chunky.
See how Crochet Charm Lace works in these posts.
Crochet Garden readers will recognize the double bullion stitches on this silvery gray scarf, crocheted with Premier Yarns Deborah Norville Collection Alpaca Dance.
In Crochet Garden, you’ll find the tall double bullion stitch in the Russian Spoke Flower on page 100, and the shell picot in the Russian Picot Daisy on page 76. Find a tutorial for the Russian Spoke Stitch/Picot here, where Photo 6 shows the complete Russian Spoke Stitch, and the rest of the photos are about how to make the Picot.
If you can’t find the print edition of Love of Crochet in your favorite magazine-shopping spot, a digital version is available here.
