September Mandala
I have worked this Mandala using 2 different color options. Mandala 1: Oyster, Canary, Navy and Alfalfa Mandala 2: Oyster, Fairy Tale, Wisteria and Mulberry You will need 1 ball in each color to make your Mandala. In total we used 4.2 oz / 119 g / 57 yds / 53 m to make each Mandala. The September Mandala was designed as part of the Stitch and Hustle Perfect Picot Blog Hop. The finished Mandala measures 14 inches in diameter.
Stash Baskets
This is a quick to crochet stash buster project for medium weight yarn. Crochet this small basket / container to store things like crochet hooks, pencils or pens. Perfect for managing your desk clutter AND using up some of that leftover medium weight yarn! Worked with 2 strands of medium weight yarn held together this lovely textured container can be worked up in about one hour. If you would like to use some stashed bulky weight yarn 5 you can easily substitute it instead of the 2 strands of medium weight yarn. Have fun and show me your finished baskets please! Rhondda
Mandala Cord Taco
The Mandala Cord Taco is a clever keeper for all of your various cords that have a way of getting tangled, lost or broken when not being used. This cute and practical project works up fast and uses small amounts of Size 3 crochet thread from your stash. You can use larger yarn to get a larger 'taco' for thicker and longer cords. So many possibilities with all of the color combinations - so it makes a great last minute gift for everyone on your list!
