Anne: variations
December 2, 2007
The pattern is coming soon! It has been tested thorougly and the photos and basic layout are done. I’m getting the symbolcraft chart done, and it’s going to be worth the wait! If you can’t wait, the crochet lace pattern is often called Queen Anne’s Lace, and can be found in a lot of crochet stitch pattern dictionaries.
Elann Super Kydd, size K hook. I used about half a skein.
The motifs get pulled out of shape a little too easily – next time I’ll use a smaller hook.
Blue Sky Alpacas Dyed Cotton, Shell Pink, 1 skein.
I’m about 1/3 of the way through mine, with a Sublime merino/silk blend. I’m a tight crocheter, so my yarn is smaller (sport weight) and my hook is bigger (US H) than yours. I love the pattern; it’s so pretty.
One thing I would change is deleting the suggestion to use a slip loop for the first motif. It makes the first one look a bit different from the rest.
Thanks again!

Eeeeeyiiiieeeeee! This is GORGEOUS! I made a scarf using this pattern last night (for practice) in Lionbrand Woolease (red)…turned out great. This morning, I’m trying out the pattern using Noro Kureyon. Eeeegads! It’s spectacular. Each motif comes out a different color. This is better than crocheting up a bunch of different flowers and sewing them together! So quick…great gift idea. THANKS!
I’ll post my pix to ravelry within the next few days.
