3D Effect Crochet Hotpad for Beginners

The hotpad is just one row pattern but thanks  to 3d effect and color combination possibilities, you can create various designs. We will start with a ring hanger. You can crochet all around it and have different number of stitches then you must devide that number into two. Use just one half of stitches for creating the square. I have in total 20 stitches so I will work only in 10 stitches. My first row will be 4 single crochet, inc×2, 4 single crochet ( 10 stitches). My second row will be 5 single crochet, inc×2, 5 single crochet and etc. Just keep making two increases in the center. You can make any size. Watch the video to see how to give it a finished look.

Crochet Japanese Flower Hot Pad

Image
Today I am sharing a very beautiful yet very simple pattern of Japanese crochet flower that can be used as hot pad or a chair seat cushion or just as a decoration for the wall. These pattern looks really impressive.  I used cotton yarn since I decided to use them as hot pads for kitchen but you can use any yarn in case it's just for jome decoration. I recommend to use one hook size smaller than recommended on yarn label.  First time I crochet with the hook size that was recommended and it felt too loose and I couldn't assamble tge rings perfectly. I guess if you crochet tightly then maybe you can use the same hook size as recommended by yarn label. We are going to crochet 9 rings of four rows and then join them with one row of crochet. Chain 33 and slip stitch into the ring. Row 1: 33 sc Row 2: Chain 2 and make clusters of double crochet and chain one between them. ( 33 clusters of dc) Row 3: Chain 2 and make front pod

Super Easy Crochet Rainbow for Beginners

Image
You can use any materials for this project. I used my scrap yarn and jute cord but actually the cord can be substitute with a bunch of yarn approximately 10mm in diameter.     The idea is to alternate 1 row of no increase, 2nd row with increase in each stitch, next row no increase and etc. You can customise the shape of your Rainbow. For example, you can make increase just on top and not on the sides, then Rainbow will be more curved. Try to experiment with size, colors and materials. I am sure you will come up with unique designs.   These rainbows are great for home decor especially kids rooms, they are perfect as toys or you can attach them just anywhere to lift up your mood.
