I posted this "teaser" before, but I never showed the entire spread :) I used Red Heart Baby Sheen. Forgive me for saying this but I already forgot what hook size I used. Of all pieces of information, I forgot to list this one down. I think I used between 3mm-4mm. I wasn't also able to take note how many skeins of Red Heart Baby Sheen I used. This yarn, by the way, had already been discontinued by Red Heart so this makes this bedspread really special (and unique, I guess).
It's made up of 266 motifs sewn together through the back loops of the last round of each motif. It is enough to cover a queen-sized bed.
I love the layers (and textures) created by the front and back post double crochets as well as the popcorn stitches. They made the different colors in each round pop.
I'm not really sure if I'll be able to make another bedspread soon. It depends, if that "itch" comes back for such a huge project :)
If you want to get the last (and rare) remaining skeins of Red Heart Baby Sheen, you can buy them online HERE. You must be warned though that there will no longer be restocks of this yarn in our store, so make each stitch count!
It's really lovely. I wish I had the determination to do something like this.
ReplyDeleteI'm inspired with ur work and hope i can make this one too in the future. I just began crocheting again last february and wanna work with patterns like u doing. 😊 hope u can help me with patterns
ReplyDeleteMy god! My mother loves crocheted pieces! It's a shame that I suck at it. You make it look so easy and rewarding. i might just give it a shot. Lovely blog.
ReplyDeleteYour article on exploring the national parks of the USA is fantastic. The diversity of landscapes is incredible. I'm excited to visit Yellowstone, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon. Thanks for the detailed park guides
