Cherry Bomb inspired rear view mirror charm

 

Ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb!

To put on your mirror, put the connecting chain under the black mirror and bring upwards, put each side over to the opposite side. Now it should hang properly.

🍒💣Untested pattern-DM me on IG or Facebook @ SlayCrochetAndCrafts if you want to test and provide feedback

Please credit me as the designer (@SlayCrochetAndCrafts) when you post. Do not copy or alter my pattern, send the link to share. It is okay to sell your finished work but never the pattern. 

-I used cotton yarn size 4, F hook 3.75mm, locking stitch marker, yellow embroidery floss, yarn needle, embroidery needle, scissors. I alternated yarn over and yarn under to try to get the effect I wanted as y/u is a bit smaller and tighter than y/o, it will direct you on which to use every round before the round #.

1. Ch 7, in the back bumps slipstitch starting in second chain from hook  (6) Fasten off, sew onto middle of bomb. In yellow embroidery floss, embroider sparks or flame at the top 

Almost finished! Now we just have to combine them. 

Insert hook under one of the stitches at the top of the bomb, attach a different color of yarn. I used a denim blue just because I liked it. Chain a length around 12" (or more if needed) and then attach to the cherry by inserting hook under a stitch at the top and slipstitching. Fasten off, make sure both ends are secure, and weave in ends.

Cute Cottagecore Crochet Pattern Roundup #2

 Pattern Roundup #2 I have a special love for cottagecore, gardening, and herbs.. and it feels so rewarding to combine my crochet interests with a cottage aesthetic. Here are fun cottagecore themed crochet patterns from Etsy! Wearables 1.  This is a beautiful Fern Scarf to drape around your shoulders as you inspire both fear and awe in your neighborhood 2.  The fairytale bonnet really looks like something you'd put on to enjoy a walk in the woods looking for fairy rings. This maker is one of my favorites. 3.  This sweet bucket hat style mushroom cap is so dreamy with that little bit of whimsical "ribboning effect" that reminds me of mushroom gills. Use caution, though, as the pattern maker is restricting this to personal usage.  4.   the Elwyn Hood looks cute and cozy, but also like you might be an herbal witch living in a cave. It has all the vibes.  5.   The Foxglove bucket hat is another one from The Entangled Fae, and I just find...

Resources

As I've been leveling up in my crochet and knit journey I've been using  Pinterest  more and more to keep track of patterns. I had stopped using Pinterest for a while but gosh now I'm pinning at least once a day. When I started bookmarking blogs with free patterns it was like a lightbulb 💡 moment for me-- there were so many good patterns, I needed Pinterest. I'm an eclectic kind of gal but Pinterest lets me explore many aesthetics.  I've also realized how effective Ravelry can be as a resource, so I'm slowly learning how to use it in a way that's beneficial to me. I'm considering hosting my free patterns there, rather than in the blog.  I'm planning some projects like these knitted slippers , a cute crocheted  tank top , and this  knitted crop top .
