Perfect Picnic Week 4

Welcome to Week 4 of our Perfect Picnic with Scheepjes!

This week we will be creating more textured and colourful stitches representing some wonderful activities which can be enjoyed together at a picnic, after the picnic food has been shared…

Fly a kite, build a sandcastle or search for shells if you’re by the seaside are just a few ideas…

I really loved designing and crocheting these stitches.

Creating the kites was a design challenge for sure but I’m soooo happy with how they turned out… 🙂

I hope you’ll enjoy crocheting them as much as I did.

And we also have some shell stitches and some raised stitches too…

The round-up of blankets this week was particularly colourful and I get a huge smile on my face every time I pop onto Instagram or check in the Facebook groups to see some fabulous progress photos being shared.

At this point in a CAL people are all at different parts and it’s always lovely to see some people only now just starting out. Here’s a selection of just some of the wonderful photos I’ve seen shared this past week… aren’t they just amazing ?! 😍

So let’s get crocheting!

The pattern is now available over on the Scheepjes website…

The weather on the south east coast of England has been pretty grey this week so it hasn’t really been picnic weather. So crocheting these stitches, whilst cosying up indoors, dreaming of picnics to come has been really lovely…

Happy crocheting Everyone! 🥰💙
