Peek-a-boo Bikini

Hi Friends, 

Recently, my eldest daughter approached me with a request that was both intriguing and challenging.  Guys, you know I love a challenge. So, after I crafted a cosy hat for her friend using some beautiful Yarn Art yarn, she expressed her desire for a unique bikini set featuring the colour #268 of Yarn Art yarn. 

The yarn is a gradient going from the centre out, it goes from cream, brown, light blue, light grey to a dark grey.  Very beautiful, I may add, 💞

This time, however, she had some very specific ideas in mind. She asked me to construct the bralette by starting with the triangle shape from the top and working my way down, deviating from the conventional method of creating a U-shape by crocheting from one side to the other. 

To make it even more distinctive, she requested a playful peek-a-boo opening just below the bust line, adding a touch of whimsy to the design. I’m excited to embark on this creative project and bring her vision to life! 

Guys.... Guys.... I did great or what?   You know I ate!!!

I made a cover up too.

Until next time, let's be friends!

Yarn Art

 Hi loves, 

My eldest was into the buying of yarn, (why?  I do not know)... lol I'm just kidding she wanted to make a ruffle hat for her friend.  She bought Yarn Art YarnArt Flowers Yarn in the colours #268 and #269.  This yarn is 55% Cotton 45% Acrylic, 250gr, 1094yds Multicolor Cotton #1 Fine Sport weight.  An absolutely gorgeous yarn both in colour and feel... 

It was my first time working with this yarn, it was easy to work with and made me want to purchase some.  It would work well for making light and airy garments. 

Colour #269

Colour #268

She started her hat and requested my assistance in completing the hat.  She chose color #269 for the hat.   See the video below.  The crown and base were made while holding only one strand but the ruffle was done holding 2 strands (inner and outer strands).  The finished hat was very cute, it epitomized practice makes perfect as this was the 3rd one I've done and the best one yet.  Do you agree?  Check out the blog posts Ruffle Hat and Constellation Prize for comparison.

Until next time, let's be friends!
