Workbasket Magazine August 1972 Pansy Bouquet
The pansy bouquet pattern is the winner for August.    I thought the place mat would do better because I had the special yarn for it but it only got 4 votes.  

The materials:
  • Coats & Clark "Knit-Cro-Sheen" in three colors; green, shaded lavender, and purple.  I have green, shaded lavender and lavender.
  • Millinery Wire.   I have floral wire and some other random wires.  
  • Steel crochet hook size 7 or size needed for gauge (even though there isn't a gauge given...)  I have a 1.75 mm steel hook.   A size 7 is 1.65 mm.


J&P Coats Knit-Cro Sheen in Shaded Lavender and Green
The pattern:

Each pansy consists of a flower, five calyx petals, two short leaves and two long leaves.  The crochet directions seem easy but the finishing directions are somewhat short so I may be winging it on that part.  I think I'm only going to do one pansy to start with and see how that goes.

Next week I'll tell you about my next big project!

    I'm from Minnesota and have been crocheting since 2003.  I inherited a box full of Workbasket Magazines from my mother-in-law and became obsessed with the vintage patterns.
