Unfortunately, the pictures that accompanied Caitlin's written instructions wouldn't load, but hopefully our experienced crocheting friends will be able to figure out the pattern from these instructions and the previous photo from our 15 July post. Crops of Luv hopes there are LOTS of crocheting buddies out there who will whip up bunches of these adorable clouds for upcoming albums. THANK YOU in advance!
Cloud Pattern
-G hook
-worsted weight yarn
Abbreviations:
ch - chain
sc - single crochet
hdc - half double crochet
Ch 84. Skip 4, sc in fifth ch from hook.
*Ch 2, skip 1 stitch, sc*. Repeat from * to * to end. Turn.
*sc, ch1, 3 hdc, ch1, sc* in first ch-2 space. Repeat * to * in each ch-2
space and beginning ch-4 space.
Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing.
To make the cloud shape, take one end and begin to spiral the crocheted
piece around itself (as if you were making a rosette). Do this with about 1/2 of
the length.
Next, grasp the remaining half a few inches below the end. Spiral that
piece around to make another "puff", leaving approximately six inches
uncoiled.
Take this piece and thread it through the center of the second puff, then
spiral it around.
Using the long tail, sew everything together so it retains its "cloud"
shape.
Voila!
