Magic Circles
Jane loves looking at how shapes fit together and has wanted to create a tessellating circle design for some time. Circular motifs can be tricky to fit together and it is common to find the circular shape becomes slightly distorted when motifs are pieced together, so rather than create motifs that are square or octagonal, she has designed cross-shaped infill pieces that protect the shape of the large circles.
When making the small infill circles you are asked to make a magic loop to start. You can find a technique download that explains how to do this by following this link. You will also be able to find a technique guide on how to add surface crochet on the same page.
The pattern is available in UK and US terminology and the Dutch language. There are colour images throughout. The pattern includes a clear layout plan and a chart is also included for reference when joining the small circles.
Stitches used in this project are ch,ss, dc, htr, tr and dtr.
The printed 12 page pattern is also available to purchase on the Janie Crow website.
There are now two additional colourways for this pattern: Supernova and Skimming Stones, which can be seen in the final three images on this page. The colour substitution documents for these can be downloaded free of charge from our website.
