In Part 2 of Charlotte, I will show you how to make the 4 triangles that frame the central square. They are worked back and forth in rows, using a single colour.

This is the photo tutorial for part 1 (of 3) of Charlotte. Charlotte is a large crochet square with a delicate vintage feel. In this part, the large central overlay flower is framed by a delicate lacy border.

As most of you know, the roses were my favourite part of Sophie’s Universe and I plan on using them in all sorts of projects over the next year, starting with this dainty Rose Border. The tutorial contains lots of photos to help you crochet your own Rose Border.

This is a free crochet shawl pattern for the Monday Blues Shawl. Made with Scheepjes Noorse Sokkenwol, it can be worn as a scarf too.

This lazy waves shawlette is worked from the top down. It lends itself perfectly to using a slow colour change yarn.
