My crochet phase is continuing. This week I have completed Gudule, a sweet amigurumi crochet pattern from Tendre Crochet,ย by Sandrine Deveze (aka Tournicote). I have had a few emails about this book, since I showed photos of my crocheted pear. The crochet book is in French but the patterns are fairly straight forward if you have a list of French crochet terms at hand.
I used Moda Vera Beetle yarn in this project which is a cotton/acrylic blend, and is available from Spotlight stores. I used a 3.75 mm crochet hook. The fabric used for her scarf is Sweet Meadow in Orchid from the Dreamin Vintage range designed by Jeni Baker for Art Gallery Fabrics. ย The colours in the fabric are a perfect match for the yarn. I used some 4ply crochet cotton for the rosy cheeks.
If you follow us on Instagram you will have seen this progress shot. After I took the photo I realised the one of the legs was wrong so some reverse crochet was needed!
Thanks to everyone who entered our recent giveaway to win a copy of Little lady Libery by Alice Caroline. The lucky winner is Melanie C (We have sent you an email – please respond to arrange delivery of your prize).
