I'm preparing to teach one more #crochetclass for the year. These are tests for *Herringbone Chains For All the Things!* online class May 18 & 19. Register at CGOA (crochet.org). Black & white: Tunisian. Pink silk: filet crochet. Pink wool: flower. Multicolor: a super-herringbone chain that has kind of a houndstooth look on the back! . #crochetchain #herringbone #crochetstitch #newcrochet #Tunisiancrochet #filetcrochet #crochetcord #yescgoa #crochetteacher #crochetswatch (at Online) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdGrEw-pnVl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As designers it’s important to do searches to get your idea before you’ve got half a project and it isn’t working out. I learned to swatch by watching videos from @goodknitkisses, but I just hate wasting yarn! So I started to make swatches with different sized crochet hooks and then using the same piece of yarn without cutting it start another swatch. When I’m done with them I just undo it and wind the yarn back up to use again! #crochet #crocheting #crochetdesigner #crochetdesigning #theknittedsisters #crochetswatches (at Las Vegas, Nevada)

A cowl test swatch of fancy yarns inspired by the new Delicate Crochet book by Sharon Silverman (pattern is Yveline Wrap p. 132). Next test will be lace weight yarn for the background! Four Stacy Charles Fine Yarns I love: silk Stella (Tunisian background), then left to right: Luna (mohair), Crystal (tiny sequins), glittery Celine. . #tunisiancrochet #stacycharlesfineyarns #sharonsilverman #sparkleyarn #crochetswatch #crochetcowl https://www.instagram.com/p/BrdQvOrFzeP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ljfqdbk601gb

Completed my first crochet-covered headband last night. It started out a bracelet I swatched for the Zegue-Along Tunisian Scrap Zapper class that ended yesterday. I added the Tks rows at each end to make it fit the headband. (Also needed to pad up the skinny headband with black foam strips.) It's more comfortable to wear now and looks pretty with my ashy hair color! . #tunisianstitch #yescgoa #crochetclass #crochetswatch #beadedcrochet #diy #diyheadband #crochetheadband #beadedheadband #finishing #Tunisiancrochet #tunisianchevron #tunisianripplestitch #tunisiancrochetersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc8Rz9-L5zJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It's Self-Healing Saturday! For crochet swatches, that is. I'm working through stacks of new stitch patterns to test-steek for my upcoming virtual class, Self-Healing Stitches & How to Cut Them. It's a new 2-hour class that meets for one hour this March 8 & 9. It's part of CGOA's online education program. . #CGOA #crochetclass #teacherlife #newcrochet #crochetmakesmehappy #crochetersofinstagram #steeking #crochetoftheday #crochetguildofamerica #crochetswatch #crochetteacher https://www.instagram.com/p/CaKpAgNrFsS/?utm_medium=tumblr

These triple trebles (4 yarn overs to begin) are a whole step shorter. This makes them equal to the double trebles to the left of them (3 yarn overs to begin them). A test of Thérèse de Dillmont's 1886 method for doing half-step heights. Interesting texture, huh? . #crochetclass #crochettechnique #longstitch #crochettreble #crochetswatch #cgoa2020 #chainlink2020 https://www.instagram.com/p/CChIRzzprdH/?igshid=osva5unjweqt
