yarn mandala

this is my current project: It is only half done, I will post the steps too.

it's based on a kloketen creationes video:

is using Himagurumi, a 50% cotton 50% acrylic yarn by Himalaya (Turkish company), and it was created with amigurumi in mind, but they are awesome for this too. I will try crocheting something from them too, and post that as well. I just got my ordered stash last week, and I am experimenting with the colors.

Did I mention they have a great selection of colors?

"Eye of God"

Infinite Painter.

I was given a kit to make one of these traditional Mexican crafts. I have almost zero spatial awareness, so I failed to tie the string properly around the sticks. Instead, I just decided to illustrate one and call it a day.

"Le ruego y pido a dios… que me haga perder la vista, porque a cada lugar al que voy siempre la miro, ahí, esperándome…

Le ruego y pido que me haga perder el sentido del olfato, porque con cada mujer con la que estoy, me recuerda a ése aroma suyo, fresa caramelizado…

Le ruego y pido que pierda la movilidad de mis manos, porque soy incapaz de dejar de escribir lo que nunca le dije, que estos sean los últimos versos que le escribo…

Le ruego y pido que pierda el sentido del oído… porque la brisa del aire y de las melodías me hacen recordar su voz cuando me decía que me quería…

Le ruego y pido que pierda mi laringe, así ya no le cantaré todas las noches con la esperanza de que vuelva…

Te ruego y pido señor, que me quites la vida, porque aún a pesar de todo eso, no dejo de pensar en ella…

Te ruego y pido señor, que desgarres, castigues y quemes mi alma con el mismo sufrimiento que cargó para olvidarla...

Te lo pido a ti porque soy un cobarde. Fui cobarde para amarla y soy un cobarde para olvidarla…"

yarn mandala part 1

So yarn mandalas.

I have a couple of them ready, I completely forgot to document them (it would be useful for later) I experimented with different yarns, this is a very nice stash buster. Here is the 3 I created with an acrylic yarn (I still don't understand the yarn thickness thing. I have to always figure it out by needle size...) this one is ~ for size 5 crochet needle.

All of these are based on the awesome videos by kloketen creationes

Check her channel out. The videos are in Spanish, but the English subs are workable, and she creates very good tutorials, they are easy to follow. (the only thing is to always check if you cut off enough yarn when you have to - I usually slow it down and count her rounds before doing it. this will make sense i promise)

This was based on:

It was fairly easy as these go. For this you need two sticks (I've found some bamboo ones somewhere in a shop. they are slightly too thick - which means sturdy, but very slightly modifies the tension, and sometimes even the pattern)

I am fairly satisfied with the results. :)

The last thing I am not certain about is calling these Ojo de Dios - eye of God, as far as I understand it is a custom in Mexico, Peru and other Central American cultures to commemorate the growing up of a child.

She uses the term though, and for now I will include it to give a little chance for people who are searching for patterns.
