One of the main reasons I set up this blog is to show and share my craft creations that I make whilst I am here in Mojacar, Spain.
So for this and some future posts I am going to trawl back through my photo archives and show off some of my favourites...hope you like them!
The first was a delicate summer top from Simply Crochet magazine issue 5. A perfect summer top with dainty edging and a super flattering empire line waist detail. An easy-to-wear vest for our hot summer days here in Mojacar.
The pattern called for Egyptian cotton yarn that I did not have so I substituted it for a local yarn from my wool man on Garrucha market. It is called Perle by Alvelana, S.L. And it's is a DK weight with a lovely Perle sheen to it. As I had purchased one 100g ball in EVERY colour he possessed I had little trouble in creating my scrummy jewel effect mini granny squares.
