Crochet Sachet
by Rose Mary ** Rose Marys project was selected to appear in Crochet! magazine (March 2006)! **
While I have been crocheting scarves and afghans for years with worsted and sport-weight yarns, I took a crocheted lace class this fall. It has inspired me to try more and more things with thread! This Sachet Bag was made for my sister. It will be her hostess gift on Thanksgiving Day.
The bag was adapted from a free (!) Coats & Clark pattern called Little Bag. It finished at 4 inches tall, the base having a 2.5 inch diameter. The bag itself was done with 40 weight crochet cotton using a Sz 8 hook. The cording I made for this bag is a little different. I used a technique described for Romanian Point Lace. It was easy to do … once I got it started! And it looks beautiful (if I do say so myself.)

Mouline Rouge
by Rebecca & Rose Mary One design from Long Dog Samplers - so many ways to personalize it!
One example: Here is a look at how 2 (of the 6) participants are doing. The one on top is using 28C Platinum-colored fabric with handdyed, variegated silk thread. The bottom one uses 40C Cream-colored fabric with Anchor floss. Just think of the differences you could make!
