I had seen these kits at Black Sheep Wools previously, and even when in the sale hadn’t bought it, thinking “I’m not really a wrap type person”. However my addiction to crochet beat that.. I can’t remember why I was at Black Sheep AGAIN (I probably had an idea I would buy something like it as I was about to finish Carousel), but the sale was on again after Christmas, so I bought the kit with money from my mother-in-law. It seemed most appropriate, almost compulsory, since it was buying her a crochet kit for Christmas previously that had got me hooked. I had also previously bought my mum a wrap crochet kit (which she has just finished) as a challenge of something different, and this certainly looked to have some different styles. I was right \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the first panel and start of the second. The first part is not the most exciting!!! Right side a row of trebles, sometimes a back post treble to give more texture, then the wrong side doubles, various different colours!. There are some pretty zigzag patterns – front post double trebles in the rows below. The second panel is fantastic though, and a joy to see the pattern emerge. This is mosaic crochet and is just so clever. It is time consuming, and I never got to the point I could remember the pattern for a full row, and each row is different, so constantly checking the pattern. Not something you can easily carry around to pick up and do while waiting to pick up a child!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
