I love using yarn bowls around the home, on my lap, in the garden…
Using old books, cards or photos for the base, you can cobble together personalized imagery into lots of lovely paper craft things.
Following the ‘crochet’ or ‘tutorial’ labels on my blog, you will find a squillion ideas and patterns. Particularly HERE for a full description of method and materials.
The pattern is for the larger one, which is 16cm high and 25cm across, then I’ve sliced 4mm around the sides and 10mm off the top for a medium, and again for a smaller version.
They all sit inside each other.
I use one for my actual knitting, one for the rest of my yarn (I’m a big fair isle knitting lover) and the other… well, two might be enough but I made three!
