This week I crocheted another stool cover! I’ve crocheted these before and featured them in blog posts…

A Crochet Stool Cover

Quick Project- another Stool Cover

My dear brother and sister-in-law have the same Ikea foot stool as us which I crocheted a cover for last year. They asked if I would crochet one for them and I was more than happy to oblige…

I suggested the yarn,  Hoooked Ribbon XL, and they chose the colours. It was really nice to have someone else choose the colours and they chose so well!

I was keen to get started…

…but after completing about 7 rounds I realised that yellow would be a better starting colour. After a little family discussion and a vote it was pretty unanimous that everyone felt yellow would be better so I started all over again…

I took it down to the beach for some progress photos and I LOVE this photo of Salty who came and ‘photobombed’ a progress shot!

With a 12mm hook and chunky yarn it really does crochet up super quick and in less than a week it was finished…

The weather has been so amazing this weekend so on Saturday morning I had a little fun and with the help of my husband and children took a selection of my crochet down to the beach for a ‘Coastal Crochet’ photo shoot!  There’s a lot to consider when taking photos on the beach- the weather, the tides, the state of the sea and on Saturday all the good elements were there- calm seas, a high tide, not too windy and such lovely sunshine!

And yes, as you can see, a couple of crocheted stools came down too!

On Sunday we delivered the stool cover to it’s new home- luckily my lovely brother and sister-in-law seem happy with it and I think it looks fabulous in its new home…

I have written the pattern for this and will publish it in the next day or so…

Happy Crocheting Everyone… 🙂 🙂
