Springtime is in the air, today it is warmer up here on my mountain and the snow is melting. Of course it’s all a bluff as we will likely have more lots more snow before we are completely finished with winter weather. In the meanwhile it is time to celebrate my latest published pattern “Ring Around the Posies Skirt”, worked in Designing Vashti’s: Lotus Yarn, in the April issue of “I Like Crochet” online magazine.
This skirt is one of my most ambitious designs to be published so far. It’s an advanced level project written in 5 sizes and will definitely build your skills. The most challenging aspect is the floral motif hemline, so I created placement and joining illustrations to help. These are offered as downloads in the sidebar of the pattern page.
This design includes a center back zipper. I have an article on adding a zipper to your crochet project in the same issue to help with this aspect. If you haven’t had a chance to get a subscription to “I Like Crochet” it is a great way to celebrate National Crochet Month. Every issue is full of a variety of fun and exciting projects and your subscription allows you access to all the previous published issues as well.

Oooh! That’s so pretty! Nice job. 🙂
Thank you. Glad you like it.
Pretty fancy design. Looks really good on the model and I’m sure it was complicated to work out
We’re in the same issue =) I designed the layered skirt in hot pink!
It’s always fun to be hanging out with my friends in a magazine.
Such a fun skirt! I better keep improving my crochet skills so I can make one someday! 😊
