Free Pattern Friday – Prism Wrap

It’s Free Pattern Friday!

Today, the Prism Wrap in Alpaculence (pattern link here).

 

Lightweight and sparkly, this design takes one ball each in two colors of Rozetti Yarns Alpaculence.

Worked flat in one piece, you alternate colors every other row and carry them up – don’t bother to cut and weave in those ends.

This would be a great companion piece to the Ziggity Hat (pattern link), another free pattern using Alpaculence in zigzags.

A simple pattern with striking results.  We hope you enjoy it.

Have a great weekend, and happy crafting!

Free Pattern Friday – Incarnadine Shawl

It’s Free Pattern Friday!

Crocheted pink striped shawl

Today, the Incarnadine Shawl crocheted in Alpaculence (pattern link).

Combine a top-down triangular shell stitch pattern with self-striping yarn, and what do you get?

Gradually widening color repeats in a beautiful shawl.

The border is added afterwards, for narrow bands of color in glittering superfine Alpaculence.

You can easily adjust the size of this shawl, taking care to ensure you’re starting from a multiple of 8 plus 2 chain stitches.  The pattern is both written and charted, for your convenience.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend full of beauty.

Happy crafting!

Free Pattern Friday – Spellbinder

It’s Free Pattern Friday!

Today, the Spellbinder Cowl in Alpaculence (pattern link here).

We named this the Spellbinder for obvious reasons – it’s simply spellbinding.

An easy-to-memorize lace pattern in a single skein of soft, shimmering Alpaculence creates a beautiful, lightweight cowl that can easily be dressed up or down.

Be aware: the cowl shown took 92 grams of a 100 gram ball.  Be sure your gauge is correct to prevent the possibility of running out of yarn!  Swatching in advance can prevent trouble at the finish.

We hope you have a magical weekend.

Happy crafting!
