Free Crochet Jewelry Pattern: Mesh Choker

Free Crochet Pattern for this week is a Mesh Choker.
The necklace is made with black size 10 crochet threads and DMC size 5 in gold.  You will also need crystal for the centers of the flowers.
I like to do jewelry patterns, especially necklaces.  They are a fast and often easy project to make.
Right now I'm busy designing my series of 8.  In this series I take a few elements and combine them into 8 stand alone necklaces!
Enjoy!

Instant Fashion Coat a Free Vintage Knit Pattern

Here is the latest Free Vintage Pattern:
Instant Fashion Coat
It is a knit pattern.
I love it, I actually took a knitting class recently so I could eventually make this.  Slow going, still haven't gotten the hang of knitting and pearling.  It would help if I could figure out how to hold my yarn while I'm knitting.  I need to hold it in my opposite hand from when I crochet and every new row I knit I need to figure out how to hold it all over again!
Enjoy!

Free Necklace Pattern Off Center Pendant

Free Crochet Pattern:
Off Center Pendant Necklace.
Fast and easy to make this necklace is made up of on chain lenghts to make the base of the necklace.
Black and Gold contrast wonderfully in this project.
I used DMC Metallic thread, but a size 10 crochet thread in gold would work equally as well, but wont be as shiny.
Hope you like it!

HeadLine News Group of Free Vintage Crochet Patterns

Headline News is the name of this free vintage pattern.

The second free vintage pattern for this week is actually a small pamphlet of 4 different designs. All are crochet and around the 1940's in date.

The first one is called a Head Scarf, the second a Facinator and the third a Captivator. I don't know if the different names for basically the same article of clothing is just to separate the three or actual terminology of the time.

The last pattern in the set is a round shawl which is called (of course) a round shawl.

Looks to me like the trio could easily be converted into cowls, shawls and ponchos for a more modern look.


I hope you enjoy them.

I'm working on some vintage children's/baby patterns for next week!
