Macaroon Blossom Afghan | Crochet Pattern | 2024 Revision

The Macaroon Blossom Afghan Crochet Pattern 

now has a 2024 revision!

These photos are a miniature version of the afghan that was made to film the new stamen, petals, and leaves videos, and to create a video for the border, but the afghan in the pattern measures 

36" x 54" (91 cm x 138 cm).

The videos for the stamen, petals, and leaves have been refilmed. 

There were a few makers that have requested a border video so that has been added, as well.

Scheepjes Stone Washed was the yarn used in the photographed mini afghan and the pattern.

Just so you know, I used Peridot for the leaves and New Jade

 for the leaf joins as I was out of Canada Jade. All greens work up nicely. 😊

If you previously purchased the pattern via Ravelry,

you would have received the 2024 revision last month 

If you purchased the pattern on Etsy, Lovecrafts or at Wool Warehouse (before March 2024) then access the YouTube links and

 the links for the new videos via the description of the old videos. 

 

The "Leaf Join" video includes a link to the new "Border" video 

referenced in the description.

In addition to new videos, the pattern has been spruced up, reformatted,

 and expertly tech-edited by the lovely
@krosha_prapancha 

A big thank you to my friend Poornima!

Pebble Haze Yarn | Blossom-Circle-Square | Jumper Vest

 Yay! I finished my first article of clothing with the fabulous Pebble Haze yarn 

from Yarnsmiths and Wool Warehouse. 

A great big hug of thanks for this generous gift is being sent via this instant 

worldwide communication option. 

Hoping there is enough bandwidth and radio frequency to cover 

how grateful I am for this consideration.

I love this DK (#3 light) weight 67% cotton 33% acrylic yarn! 
It is soft and airy but is structured enough to hold up for clothing. 
I like it so much that I have purchased more if it!

I had a hard time deciding on sleeves, 

but I thought no sleeves would be nice for springtime. 

Plus it can always be worn over a blouse with sleeves...

Yarn: 
Yarnsmiths Pebble Haze
